When you get much older you'll realize it's worse when people look down at you and keep their financial success unspoken. The fact that the men in the video bragged about how much they make is a sign that they still respect and see each other as equal instead of silently looking down at each each other. Yes it might be a prick of pain but that is reality, just like when siblings share success or failure to each other.

Go over accounts and costs together - no shock purchases, no execptions. Get help from their parents with baby sitting - they act like they are all alone - they are not, at least back then. A $90 table cloth ? You can buy a full living room of used furniture for $60. Estate Sales sell better than store items, usually much cheaper, and you are helping out the family by buying the things they can't store or use any longer - since their loved one passed away. Now a Days - you can buy a full house full of all you need direct from E-Bay. All used, all saving money. Getting married should have a nice wedding, reception, honeymoon, and some starting out funds and gifts from family too. It's good to marry young if you feel it is right, and both people dedicate their love for each other and to the Lord. Whatever their faith or religion, every marriage is a 3 way deal, two people brought together by the Creator... What ever faith they share, they are committing for life, and to grow a new family, be it 1 child or a dozen... A life time of love, family, and caring for each other - everyone needs a family !

[@hv9988]

@@SeaJay_Oceans I'm with you. I agree with everything except the end bit. :) You don't NEED a reception, wedding or honeymoon/money/gifts. They're nice to have, but you can also save by going to the church or courthouse and getting a stripped down, bare bones ceremony with only the people you NEED/want present. I'm not religious (nor interested in a family of my own), so I don't really know what a religious ceremony needs - but as far as I can tell (based on my friend's wedding) - you really only need the priest, parents (not sure if this is needed), 2 witnesses, and the couple. But I agree with your sentiment - you really don't need the world to get married. You really only need common sense, to live within your means, and a partner - key word : PARTNER. no weird surprise purchases with no discussion . sheesh. $90 on a tablecloth!!! Also also!! I LOVE estate sales!!! :D

My wife and I married at 17 and 20 in the 80's so 30 years after this film was made. It was so easy to be married compared to how crazy our lives were up to that point so it's all relative. If you want to know more, read on: I made $3.65 an hour after my boss gave me a raise as a wedding gift. Rent was $200 month which was about 60 hours of work or 40% of my pay ($585/mo). I had a car that got 10 miles to the gallon. I spent about 15% of my pay on gas. It was cold were we lived and so heat cost about $90 in the winter. That was about 25% of my pay. Car insurance was another 8% of my pay. That left about 12% for everything else including a landline and the occasional long distance calls to relatives (8% to 10% of my pay). That wasn't working so my wife got a part-time after school job at the same place I worked for $3.10/hour (Min. Wage). We eloped so we had no wedding gifts so we had to buy things: towels, silverware, spices, phone, cleaning supplies, bed, couch, lamps, pots and pans, etc. with the leftover money. It was difficult to get credit cards back then since we had no credit so it was all cash. We had no TV for a long while. We just talked (*and stuff*) for hours. It's been 38 years now. It was still fun and I never felt like I missed out on anything. Actually I thought everyone else that were not doing this was missing out. Our marriage outlasted many of my friend's and family's marriages who waited until they were older and were more established. A lot of people thought we wouldn't make it 1 year. Lol. It was a challenge figuring things out, since we didn't know what we were doing and had very little family help. But it was fun. Like figuring out a puzzle. Before that, it was hard like figuring out a puzzle underwater blindfolded while the puzzle pieces disintegrate.

People have the same relationship problems now, they just don't show them on reality TV. People think marriage/living with a partner is easy and happy and doesn't involve sacrifice which is why so many become dissatisfied and break up.

Dated, but this is still solid advice. Marriage doesn't have to change everything about your relationship, but the stressors that come with it--especially money management and babies, if you choose to have any--will definitely change the dynamic between you and your partner. You need to make sure _before_ you get engaged that you two are on the same page about what you want and what you're willing to compromise on, and be as aware as you can be about the sacrifices that may need to be made in support of the new life you're building with your partner. After all, "when the honeymoon is over, the marriage begins," and if you're not ready or mature enough for it yet, there's nothing wrong with waiting until you are.

[@allysogge9743]

Maybe the reason young adults aren't as mature is because there are very few ways to be as economically well off as the 1950s couples at their age. Being financially dependent longer without the ability to reach the same financial brackets as your parents could definitely lead to major cultural changes. When a law degree (or any other post-grad degree) is no longer a financially stable choice sure puts things in perspective.

@@tromboner6061 That, i am afraid, is a silly assumption. If anything, kids now are more overwhelmed with high school studies and college work. The need for education is more and more desperately necessary. Survival is harder as costs keep rising. Depression in young people from the pressure of families and schools, is higher, and there is more and more cheating because the pressure of load and costs are so high. Which means less qualified people taking jobs they are unable to do properly. Do people in my age group deserve more respect, because the times we grew up in were different, and education not so necessary to earning a good living, and the costs of education so much cheaper? My older sister took a year off to work, back in the sixties, so that she could pay for her senior year at university. As a forty some year old, i could not finish college after divorce, because i had two teen agers to feed and house and an ex who punished me, by ignoring his duty to his children. I worked what ever jobs i could find, just to help us survive until they graduated from high school. Now a days people donate from birth onward to college funds, and that isn’t enough for lower income families to educate one child, let alone a second or third child. Student debt can be a life long debt that people pay for with their “estate” which may be a used car, or what ever they have left, and the right wing wants their children burdened with the debt that the last generation could not earn enough to pay, in effect, even death is no escape from the rising costs of living. Respect? Well, i think that something is about to give, frankly. People tend to rebel against the tyranny of the privileged who pay to hire the lawmakers who will pass laws that keep the wealthy empowered. It is well to remember our history. This nation fought a Revolution against the privileged who barred their freedom to vote for their representatives, among other things. It wasn’t the first time the repressed population rebelled, but what we gained was a new nation based on ethics, equality, and human freedom, the same things under attack by the right wing today. Let us hope we can regain those rights with our Constitutional votes. We may not be so lucky in the next revolution, and a whole lot more people exist now, which means a whole lot more will die in such a war. Personally, i would rather vote. At my age i would likely not survive a war, nor would my grandchildren.

Many don't know how to handle disappointment, concern, frustration or irritation without being disrespectful. They react emotionally, they say unkind words, they falsely accuse, and it creates division between the two people, doing damage and breaking trust. If one wants to be respected, they must treat the other with respect, in order for the relationship to survive. It really comes down to that, and it must be the daily norm, not an off and on again "appearance" of respect. One must commit themselves to learning how to express their concerns without injuring the other with their words, and then follow through by maintaining that respect 24/7. Love is respectful. There is no disrespect in love.

Here's the thing, getting married young looks different for different people. For some people it means that they have trouble progressing forward, but that's really not always the case. If you can get a good scholarship, then a person can actually get married and live on the stipend or the job provided by the school. Some other couples make it work in other ways. I think for most couples who married young, they look back at those first years as really hard financially, but wouldn't trade them for years apart but financially stable because they got to spend that time together. There's a joy and a sweetness about growing together and building your lives together instead of apart. Nowadays some couples live together before getting married and still go to school. Marriage should not make much of a difference...and it does help with taxes!

Very wise words from Dr. Hamilton that stand true today. A lot of people should think long and hard before getting married, whether younger or older, and certain questions, like the ones Doctor Hamilton brought up, should be asked. Being able to answer these questions doesn't guarantee a successful marriage, of course, but at least they'd give people time to think and, maybe, figure out what they actually want instead of rushing into things. Having said this, I am fully aware that some marriages that happened after a very short time of the couple knowing each other can be long and successful. My parents are an excellent example of this. They met 1 June 1969 and married 9 August 1969. They did have a lot of struggles because of differences in their backgrounds, but, in the end, they learned to work together and to not just give up at the first sign of trouble. They were married 52 1/2 years when Mom (RIP) passed at the end of January 2022, and theirs is an example of what standing together and working hard to make a marriage work in spite of their many differences is.

These videos are really helping me with making some decisions in my life. My honey bunny and I decided to pray and wait on the Lord to reunite us, after college and school. It was a major leap of faith for us since we were making our plans for marriage, the house, the babies everything. We wanted to do it all together, but being 20 we knew that we would struggle very hard. We didn’t want to sacrifice everything even our own relationship... so when the Lord said to surrender we did. A month ago, he passed his ASVAB for the navy with a very high score. He was able to choose any career and decided to dedicate his time to the Nuke program. I on the other hand, have been studying and praying on getting into a 20 month nursing program. If we were to jump without the Lords guidance we would not have been prepared for the opportunities God had for our future. I would get possibly get pregnant and travel with him all over the world. I would be so busy, that I wouldn’t have the time to study or even enter a nursing program. The Lord has very big plans for the both of us and I pray that he’d draw us closer to each other everyday, even if we are not talking. I pray that we would both have faith in the promise that we both have made to each other. I love this young man with all my heart and through Christ Jesus, I will wait to become his wife.❤️

My cousin was this guys age when he married. She was 18, same age as this girl. They are nearing 50 and still married!

[@SureEnough]

At 11:25 the dude is helping his wife around the house! The 50's are nothing like I expected. These videos are not that outdated and they have a lot of wisdom to offer.

[@patricial.321]

That's true! I hate this propaganda, it doesn't make any sense if you think about it. Yes, time influences societies values, but at the end of the day it depends on the person how they behave! Just because we live in the 21st century, doesn't mean all men suddenly help around the house. No, it depends on the couple how they structure their life and if you love somebody, you will help them.

- have you known each other long enough, to know if it’s the right one? - responsibilities of a marriage, earning n saving money, managing a home? - would marrying now, cut off a career before it started? -are we grown up enough to handel all things to happen in marriage, ups downs disappointment, emotional upsets, real life?

[@ayanaxdanielle]

Perhaps it’s from my Christian worldview but I will always feel that the earlier you have the privilege to marry, the better! More years with your sweetheart 🥹, more memories, less heartbreak, more adulting! More family, more life 🥂

[@caleballen4745]

Absolutely agree!!! Plus, you save more money as a couple (only need one place to live). If you have dated long enough, and you both know that you want to be with each other, then why wait??

[@bespectacledheroine7292]

I'm an atheist but I do agree! So I don't think that's it. A good partner isn't someone you're sacrificing freedom for, it's someone who enhances your quality of life. Literally no drawbacks unless you just aren't interested in marriage, which is fine too.

[@eriknervik9003]

I think it’s a double edged sword. I married my wonderful wife at 29 two years ago, she was 28. But here’s the thing, I can say I wish I married years earlier, but we grew up in different states and met each other by happenstance, and so we would never have met each other earlier. So for me saying I wish I married sooner is saying I wish I married someone else which is totally not true. But I get the point.

[@zoricanadj4326]

Christiaan here as well, but I can't agree it can be a general rule. Yes, there are examples like that. After being a child of parents who married early ( yes, they had jobs, were financialy independent), I promosed myself I'll never follow that road. And I was even lucky to be the third child. I wish I had a parent my kids have. And I would also advise them to grow up first and get to know themselves.

[@matthewbartsh9167]

If you study MGTOW philosophy, you will see that a man should never marry. Having said that, the younger the couple are the time of marriage, the more likely a divorce is.

Older generation: trashes generations born after- criticizes their values and life goals Older generation: also responsible for raising, imparting and demonstrating said values to younger generation Hmmmm

[@princessmissy50]

Younger generation: decides to reject the values and standards their parents taught them - to dress, fix their hair, and communicate any way except like their parents. And with each generation, the pattern continues...

[@kriparie]

@@princessmissy50 I have raised boys with the old values my parents raised me with. My oldest boy is 21 now. I was a stay at home mother and I think that the reason for the generation change is because both parents work now. They would rather have money to keep up with the Jones's than for one parent to stay home and make sure they're raised with values from our past generations. My boys open doors for women and children. They take their hats off at the table, and so on. This new generation doesn't go outside enough. Video games are our new care givers.

Kids these days aren't raised by their parents, they're raised by the media.

Almost 20 years after this film was produced, my high school home economics teacher was still showing it. We were freshmen and couldn't begin to identify with anything or anyone in these films...

[@oar-N-oasis]

I hope youtube algorithm will highlight this kind of learnings.. Very beneficial. This is wisdom.

[@capecod50s]

These short movies ask viewers to think through excellent issues. Why weren’t such teachings available to those of us coming to age in the 60’s?

[@AnnArmstrong-gr7ng]

The communist plots were coming.ing into place.

[@krissys7481]

My parents met at 20 and were so broke they had to collect beer cans for money. They almost divorced their first year of marriage. 35 yrs later my dad is having their dream lake house built and is going to retire soon. Im 27, single, with horrible anxiety and depression. Go figure.

[@lemurlover7975]

you're not alone. I have anxiety and depression too. Here are the hotlines I call to help me wit that CARDV Domestic Violence Hotline [phone] and Crossroads Prayer Hotline [phone].
