I bring you greetings, my friends here, the great people of this wonderful platform, good to see you are healthy and fit. It's a contest time and we are out for it as interesting as this, being organised by @chant. The contest is life issues, marriage and relationship stories. Welcome to my blog on the topic of discussion "Marriage for life or Contract Marriage".

What is your understanding of the statement “for better and for worse till death do us part”?

This is self explanatory, marriage in my culture, is not a contract or club that ends somewhere probably after sometimes. Marriage is for better for worse till death do it apart, means that, marriage as an institution, is indissoluble, it continues to exist between the two parties, the man and the woman, untill unfortunate and unavoidable event, the death of any of the party or both occurs.

For better for worse till death do it apart, means marriage is unconditional, wether in good health or bad health, wether in lack or in surplus, marriage has come to stay. And the statement is emphatic, that marriage is for life, it's no reason to separate unless death. Marriage is meant to exist unconditionally, in good situation or in bad situation. Marriage endures as long as life exit on earth.

Which do you prefer marriage for life or a contract marriage.

Like I said earlier, contract marriage does not exist in my own culture, marriage is most definitely for life. At all nobody is perfect and so no marriage is perfect, no contract marriage I mean to say maybe because of marriage downside experience or anything else, contract marriage is not an option or procedures of an organised system.

I therefore, not making preference but ignore contract marriage in totality as it doesn't secure future of the children appropriately, the children learn bad trend and assume abnormalities are culture. Children may lose parental control and care, there shall be individual and separate decisions on the future of the kids. Some said they share the children but no matter how romantic this trend is, it's an abomination and taboo in my land and culture from the ancestors. So I personally among others, abhor and forbid contract marriage. Marriage for life is the way truth and life no matter the troubles therein, there shall be a new dawn.

Do you agree that house chores should not be a role attached to a particular gender?

Sorry this part is rather trival to me because there are more important things to face in marriage, as big as the planets, than having issues with ordinary house chores. Of course, nobody or gender is assigned house chores a lone, but one should understand the wait of engagement of the next person, making him/her unavailable. A smelling room is for the family and freshness and neatness of the house is also for the family. Anybody can prioritise this responsibility is for yourself not slavery.

It's rather ignorance, immature, that some people consider what they do for their partners foolishness and salvery. Let me surprise someone here, there this husband of one neighbouring woman, he washes the undies of the wife and of the children including grown up ones and people used to mock and insult the man including the wife, when he travels, the wife fall sick, the children too, and she now realise that the cleanliness of one person in a house is the health of all and picked her husband understanding. Family is not politics, anybody can prioritise house chores as many as they are and too understanding answered all things.

Consider yourself a specialist in the field, and share some tips with youths about marriage.?

Marriage is a union between man and woman, it meant to exist and last for life soon initiated, marriage is for better for worse, no matter what the condition is normal, or abnormal, marriage stands. Work as a husband, truly cater for your family and the wife be a great helper to the husband, let the family grow and all things should be done with understanding and wisdom. Do away with family politics, no raising of eagle from any party of the family. And ensure maturity of the heart and otherwise before entering into marriage institution. It's the key to marriage security and safety.
