Primary purpose for marriage

[BADecker]

I guess I believe that marriage is for companionship, first. But companions usually get around to fighting, and then separating.

This is the reason why children are a close second to companionship. They help take the parents focus off their disagreements, and focus them on the children.

If child bearing is the primary purpose for marriage, what then happens to a union that have not been blessed by children?

I asked AI about the divorce statistics due to infertility.  I was surprised to read it is not a leading reason for divorce, but evidence suggests that childless couples overall tend to have higher divorce rates than couples with children.  I guess it depends on how much you love your partner.  Is your legacy more important than your life?

Thank god you know what women are capable of doing in our current generation, not only separation after fighting but with claim of time wasting and other heartbreaking charges that may lead to the lost of once valuable assets and finance which they never for one assisted in accumulating them. That is the main reasons why most men find it difficult getting married because they know what women are capable of doing, imagine the Moroccan difender hakini if not for his sharp and wise thinking he could have lost all to a woman they both shared beautiful moments with. Therefore if not for children I don't think the term marriage would still be in existence till now from my own point of view.

Honestly, even with kids in the picture, folks who still wanna get divorced would still get one. I think the major reason why couples who have kids in the picture still end up getting divorced is the inability to balance and adequately share and allocate their time and affection. For some couples, the moment a child comes in, they completely shifts all the attention and affection to that child, thereby ignoring the direct needs of their partner, which makes some partners gradually become tired of the union. There could be a thousand and one more reasons to why people get divorced, but it mostly still comes down to companionship.

Childless couples will see divorce as nothing because they think they have got nothing binding them together but for those couples who are blessed with children some of them will consider the state of their kids if they go their separate ways it will make them to continue staying together but it's not going to be solid because both parties will result to cheating since the marriage is not working out for them.

Even some partners that are very much in love so not consider love when there are no kids in the marriage some will prefer to get married to another woman just to make sure they have children I don't know for others but this is part of my culture in my local community.

At times I ask myself if child bearing is the primary aim of marriage.  if it is, then what will happen to those marriage without children but I still can not find the answers till date.
From my own point of view i see marriage as a union between two mature people for companionship, every other things attached and also for reproduction if one is favour by God. Children are blessings from god and is not supposed to be The reason behind failed marriages if not favoured by god  but some believe every marriage must have fruit of the womb which is not supposed to be so.

The reason why most of the marriages lead to the divorce after spending many years with each other is that if the marriage has reach 4 to 5 years without children some women will be panic that that thy will leave and go married another men’s whereby some women will keep patient and stay in their husbands house.

Because they’ve believed that God time is the best, even the divorce with the first person they get married too and go married another man, if God time has never reach they will still facing the issue; and that’s why they said patience is the best key to happiness and peace in marriage.

Child bearing is a primary reason for marriage, if you follow the creation of man and God's purpose for marriage is to multiply. The second reason is for support, marriage is for both gender to unite and support the community. Because the kingdom of God started with a family, to keep the kingdom in harmony marriage is another source of bringing peace and unity into tht kingdom of God on earth.

If couple bear no children, the sadness is real and you can't deny it, it's only take strong minds to stick together. But it's hard to see a happy couple without a kid. They might pretend to be happy out deep down they're suffering and if they can't bear it , it's available for them to separate because if they can't have peace within them, they can't give peace to the kingdom of God on earth. That's my understanding of marriage.

Marriage is an ancient culture in which a man and a woman live together within certain social norms. One of the main prerequisites for forming a family is marriage. Marriage is the preparation for the production of children and in a happy family, the process of producing children begins with marriage. Through marriage, an adult boy has to form a family through the union of an adult girl. In a family, the responsibility of producing children and their maintenance is fulfilled through spontaneous participation and decision-making by both parties.

Yes have said it all, child bearing as the primary objective of marriage and not the conviction we get that marriage is for companionship as its primary objectives when we all know what women are capable of doing anything especially the end time women of our generation that are made with the heart of iron and not of love which is for happiness. The idea of all women now contradicts everything as the believe in only what they stand to gain in the union and not in building a happy future except there is children in between the both partners, as it is only children that diverts there primary objectives to something else that they always showcase when the children are of age, so let know one confuse us that marriage is for companionship and not child bearing.

It is quite simple any marriage that is solely based on having children will fail if the couple were not able to have children, I've seen many marriages that crashed simply because the union couldn't produce children. At times spouses that are in such marriages will cheat on their partners to try someone else to see if they can impregnate or conceive in the case of women. We see quite a number of children who were born out of wedlock because one partner decides to cheat for one reason or another including not being able to have children in their marriages. DNA test is becoming popular now and fast proving that some men are not the biological fathers of their children. People should get married for love and companionship and understand that children are extension of the family with or without children spouses should try and stay together.

I just see marriage as a societal and moral obligations, more like a legal way of two opposite sex to have sexual intercourse without facing any backlash from those who never seems to mind their business. But populating the society is also another angle to logically look at it from, other than those two reasons, I cant phantom why it is necessary.

Good enough I had the opportunity to attend one singles and married seminar, indeed it was educative informative, fun and engaging with an interactive class, honestly a lot of people having issues because of la6of knowledge, there is validation when it is said that the primary purpose of marriage should be for companionship while every other things will come up as secondary, I wasn't surprised when one of the host speaker testify how it took him and the wife good nine years before they could have a child, they have demonstrate companionship in that marriage where having children was not the primary purpose of the marriage if not such marriage wouldn't have lasted up that nice years but today they can boost if having three children, it is true that marriages should be built in the solid foundation of companionship in order to stay even in the test of time and challenges.

Children are the most glorious by-product of a marriage. Why?

God wants us all to bring people to salvation so that we can receive extra glory from Him in the resurrection at the last day. But few of us ever become missionaries, spreading Jesus-salvation, so that we can receive of His glory.

We love our children and our spouses. So, we attempt to bring them up in the knowledge of Jesus-salvation, so that they can spend eternity in joy with God. In other words, God has placed into nature and natural sexual desire, a method for granting us glory in eternity. But so many people resist these days... with condoms.

God is a bit upset with our resistance against His attempts to give us more glory and joy.

Marriage is a very important part of every responsible person wants to get married at some stage in their life because of the benefits which come with marriage, first of all, if you are married, you are better off of a person in decision making than when you are single. As a married person, you have a partner whom always join you in thinking out solutions to problems you are confronted with, making it easy for you to take a better decision because two heads are definitely better than one, most especially if the both heads are thinking in the right direction. Secondly, marriage has a way of making you a more responsible person. Many people who have got married have shown more responsible behavior than when they were younger because at this point, it is not just all about them alone but including their family (wife and children) so if you don’t fend for yourself, you will be pushed to for them.
