인권[Human Rights]--Marriage and Family<18>


Marcia is twenty years old. She is a successful college student. Her boyfriend Calvin is not a successful college student. He did not go to college. Instead, he decided to open a business.

A year goes by and Marcia finishes her first year in college. Calvin does very well with his business too. He has many customers and a few good employees.

 

One day, Calvin asks Marcia to marry him. She wants to say yes.

 

Marcia's parents do not want her to say yes. They think that she is too young for marriage. They say that Calvin is not good for her. He does not go to college. He will not have a college degree.

 

She tries to explain her point of view to them. "I am an adult. I know that I want to be Calvin's life partner," she says. "He is a good person and I love him. We are good for each other. We make a good team. It does not matter if he does not get a college degree. He can take good care of us."

 

Her parents continue to try to talk Marcia out of marriage right up until their wedding day. Marcia puts on her white dress and her mother says, "Are you sure you want to do this? You are so young. Maybe you should wait."

 

Marcia rolls her eyes, "Yes, Mom. I am very sure."

 

Marcia and Calvin do marry. They rent a nice apartment together. Marcia continues to do well in school. Calvin's business grows. They begin to talk about a family and children.

 

Marcia's parents see how happy Calvin makes her, and how stable their family is. They begin to understand Marcia's point of view.

 

Finally, Marcia's mother says, "You are right, Marcia. You were always right. You are an adult and you do have the right to marry and to start a family. Calvin is a good choice. We are proud of you both!"
