I am not very strong in logic and making some summaries, the one thing that I can say surely that the level is going down, but its positive benefits or negative consequences remain shady for me. Maybe some references will help me in its comprehending.
It is simply to explain. The modern generation is more prudent and it understands that to create a happy family, they must create all the conditions.
I guess this scale is rather reasonable one. The time imposes the behavior, and the youth are the most sensitive to its influence. Quentin, thanks for learning the basics.
Thank you for this information. You have done a great job. So many figures, everything is so exactly. Now we can see all demografic picture of the alection.Thank you for highlighting this. Keep up your work.
I believe high marriage rates are the effect, not the cause, of their better health.
nowadays the marriage is just a obligation
Marital status & civic engagement is how co-related is shown by the graph,thanks for this analysis.
I might not have the eyes to properly interpret the graph but it seems the downward slope for 18-25 is good. At least people in this age should focus not on building a family but their future.
I dont know if i should be disappointed or happy with the decline of the 18-25 graph… Family planning should start early but I think 18-25 is a good place to start.
