(1,588 posts)My dad, one of the most intelligent people I have ever met, encouraged me to get my education, that no matter who I married, I had to be able to take care of myself because husbands' die, husbands' leave, etc. I married at 22- half way through a grad school fellowship. My family has always been better for it and I was able to retire in my mid-50's (10 years ago) because of my dad's superb advice. I will forever be grateful to my father. (I now do volunteer work I love twice a week. I have also taken in several strays and have a very sweet handicapped dog I must care for several times a day. And soon I will be taking the training to be a critter foster mom.)
A good person, a caring spouse, wants everyone to be the best they can be. To purposefully create dependency by marrying a young teenage girl is just plain sick!
People really defend this guy?!? Disgusting! He cares for no one but himself!
