In today's society, more and more young people choose not to get married or have children, and this phenomenon has aroused widespread attention and discussion.
Economic pressure is undoubtedly an important factor. With the continuous rise in the cost of living, huge expenses in areas such as buying a house, purchasing a car, and children's education make young people feel overwhelmed. In order to maintain a certain quality of life, many young people believe that getting married and having children is not a wise choice when economic conditions have not reached an ideal state.
Career development is also a key factor affecting young people's concepts of marriage and childbearing. In modern society, the competition is fierce, and young people need to invest a lot of time and energy in the workplace. Getting married and having children may lead to career interruption or limited development, which makes it difficult for them to choose between career and family.
The transformation of personal values cannot be ignored either. Nowadays, young people pay more attention to self-realization and personal freedom. They pursue personal interests and dreams and are unwilling to be bound by the traditional marriage and family model. For them, marriage is not a necessary option in life, and having children is no longer a task of continuing the family line.
The change in social concepts has also played a promoting role. In the past, not getting married or having children might face social pressure, but now society has become more inclusive and diversified, and people have more understanding and respect for different lifestyles.
In addition, the uncertainty and risks in marriage also make young people have concerns. The rising divorce rate, family conflicts and other issues make them lack confidence in the stability of marriage.
In conclusion, the unwillingness of contemporary young people to get married and have children is the result of the combined effects of various factors. We should respect everyone's choices, and at the same time, we need to pay attention to and solve these problems to create a more favorable living environment and conditions for young people.
