Эссе во вложении

«Some couples choose not to have children»

The meaning of the word “family” has always included some common values as love, devotion, support. During the centuries, the alliance has been connected with the procreation. The importance of the last is changing a lot in our society.
We must admit that a high percentage of young marriages are unplanned and based on the «unexpected” pregnancy. The first thing I would like to consider is that young people today are uncertain in their future life and they cannot be mature parents. Moreover, many couples have no stable financial base and they are confident that they would not be able to give all the best to their children. In my opinion, marriage is a union of two grown-ups and they have their right to build it for themselves.
The main argument against is that the era of the human values is going to disappear because of the term “childfree” which is spreading among young people. According to this opinion, the institution of marriage is no common anymore and everybody chooses own model of relationship. I disagree, as I am confident that values must change as everything in the world.
All in all, I believe that people who plan their future union without children are more rational than those who do not give a meaning of having one or ten children. “Upbringing” is a responsible process as you raise your descendants not only for yourselves but also for the society in common.
