however if you will look through history...Maturity was 1 thing that people back then had at an earlier age than now....Most of the great men in history either started off young (16-18) or reached success young!Very true, I'll be honest, that thought never came to my mind. But even so, the world of 25 years ago is VERY different from the world of today, especially in our Pakistan. As human's progress, our lives also progress to become more difficult in an even if not seemingly even more difficult manner.
Is a 16 year old, or an 18 year old male or female ready to take up the responsibility of a family, and even children. Plenty of children here in the UK, 16, 17, decide to get married, or commit to relationships, they end sometimes in weeks, months or a year or two. The end result proves that such commitment should never be asked of a person who can't honour due to lack of maturity.
