Theoretical Frameworks Marriage is classified as becoming one with each other between a man and a woman. In today’s society, there are many different versions of marriage, but to me it is between a man and a woman. There are plenty of people who do not take marriage seriously and I believe that is why there is such a high divorce rate (my opinion). In this essay I’ll talk about theoretical frameworks. I’ll give at least 3 examples of frameworks and explain my choices for each. I’m going to talk about how people chose their spouse or partner. Most people I know chose their spouses by looks. I have one too many friends that go through relationships because they chose them based on looks. I hate to break it to them but it takes more than looks and love to make a relationship work. All humans are different when choosing someone to love. Some look for religion while others look for trust, loyalty and commitment just to list a few examples. People need to stay for a long period of time before jumping into a marriage, especially if both parties want children. You want to be sure that this person you have chosen is right for you to spend the rest of your life with. A person needs to be compatible with the other person and this should not be overlooked because of other reasons. I’m not saying that people should jump in to moving in with each other, but there needs to be enough time to make the decision to God. After two people have been married for a while, they might think they are ready to expand their family and have children. This is a major decision because not only are you responsible for yourself and your spouse but now a human being who cannot take care of themselves and needs their parents. The married couple needs to make sure they are financial stable, emotionally and physically stable to bring a child into this world. There are a lot of parents in today’s society who don’t think about this
