Marriage, why are parents always more realistic than us?

In our lives, marriage is always an unavoidable topic. As a new generation of young people, while we pursue romantic, free and equal love, we often ignore the various pressures and responsibilities in real life. And our parents, in their life experiences, know better how to make a trade-off between reality and ideals. Why are our parents always more realistic than us when it comes to marriage?

First of all, our parents’ life experiences cannot be ignored. They have experienced the hardships of life and know that marriage is not just a matter of two people, but also the union of two families. In their view, marriage needs to be of the same family, and the finance, education, background and other aspects of the families of both parties need to match. This concept is not unreasonable, because in real life, these factors affect the stability and happiness of marriage to a great extent.

Secondly, our parents’ love for us makes them pay more attention to the practical issues of marriage. They want us to live a happy life and don't want us to get hurt in our marriage. In their view, marriage is not only the continuation of love, but also the guarantee of life. Therefore, when they consider marriage issues, they will pay more attention to the economic conditions, family background, education level, etc. of both parties to ensure that we receive sufficient care and support in our marriage.

In addition, the contemporary background of parents also affects their views on marriage. In their time, marriage was more about responsibility and responsibility than a simple emotional experience. They play their respective roles in the marriage, contribute to the family, and work for their children. This concept makes them more realistic and pay more attention to the responsibilities and obligations in marriage.

Finally, we cannot ignore our parents’ expectations of us. They want us to rise above them and live a better life. Therefore, when it comes to marriage issues, they will be more realistic and hope that we can find a partner who can spend a lifetime together and create a beautiful future together.

In short, our parents’ realistic attitude towards marriage issues stems from their care, expectations and rich life experiences for us. As children, we should understand our parents' good intentions, and at the same time learn to find our own happiness in marriage. In real life, we need to find a balance between ideals and reality, and face marriage with a mature attitude in order to move towards happiness.
