What dou you think about marriage?

More and more people think that marriage is out-of date. According to a survey made in the USA, 40% of over 2,500 people asked said that marriage was a thing of the past and does not work in our society any more.
(When the same survey was conducted thirty years ago, only 11% of Americans thought that marriage was old-fashioned.)
Data has shown that people marry less, and when they do, they marry at a higher age. On average, women are 26 years old and men 28. For the first time in over fifty years there are more unmarried people than married ones in the age group between 25 and 34.

Why to get married?
Many people think that having children is one of the reasons for marriage. But people get married for other reasons too. For the past centuries people married because they could survive better economically. They shared their money and had children who looked after them when they got old. Men went to work while women cared for the children and did the cooking.
Today couples usually get married simply because they love each other. Young people are more serious about marriage because they often witness their parents separating.
More and more couples are living together without getting married. 29 percent of children under 18 live with parents who are divorced or have never married at all.
