I will expect  here most of  replies will  say:

 they dont think there should be a set time for anything. it should be the time where you think it is best for you. and they dont think there should be an age limit on things either(well unless your really young or something like that) ,

So many factors go into having a strong marriage, but the best age to get married shouldn't be high on the list. in other words should be  don't less 25 not more 36 year..

 I think the correct answer to this one is probably personal to each individual.  It's most likely based more on when you find that perfect person and your psycological acceptance..and when you will  ready to build family ,I do think that 25-26 is a good age to get married, and then 27-28 for having your first child.

This is my view as man  whats your girls …?

I think the best age for marriage is around 26 – 30 y.o. Both man or woman is getting mature and ready by financial. And then they can have children 1 or 2..(it is not too old to get more than it, isn't it?Wink..). For me, I'm married when I was 27 y.o. It was right time to build new family and I can tell U, I really enjoy it.., have fun with your marriage..

as a girl, certainly i think the best time for marriage is 24-28 years old, if it is too earlier, then maybe it is not good for your health and body, at the same time, maybe we are not very mature at that age, if it is too late, certainly it is not good for your baby and health, but the most important thing is that you can't find the suitable man when you get older. you have lost the best time.

I married when I was 25. Sometimes I think that I could wait 5 more years, to feel life more. On the other hand, I have 2 wonderfull kids and when I look them I know that I wasn't wrong. The right time… it is very relative… On the one side , as i told, girls want to feel life, freedom, have parties, boyfriends etc. But on the other side, we have bioligicall watch, who is saying that the right time for kids is between 23 and 28,( for the first kid). With the years, posibility for having a handicaped kid are getting bigger ( especially for Down syndrom . So put the finger on you head and think well…What is the most important thing for you in your life…And there is always time for carieere, if you are smart, u can have everythung u want…just need to find balance in your life.

Every couple's situation is different. The most important thing is to sit down with yourself, as an (and I emphasize) individual, and figure out what you want out of your life in terms of finances and family and career. For some people, a life partner fits into that equation at seventeen – others, not until middle age.
It is impossible to please everyone, and whatever the issue, the good choices or the mistakes you make are yours to live through. You may be with him for the rest of your life, or you may regret this decision in a year or two. People can warn you against either outcome, but the triumphs or obstacles you create for yourself are ultimately only your own.

To my mind biological "right time for marriage" and social one do not coincide nowadays, causing problems and questions, sometimes regrets.

My "right time" for marriage and having first kid was at 18. At that times I was staring at any kid in sight. I really wanted to be a mom (and would probably have got married, if someone had proposed :D ). But socially I couldn't afford having a child, cos it was my second year at school, I has no profession, no job, and I totally depended on my parents.

Those days are gone and now I don't even turn my head, when a kid is passing by. I have no desire for having kids, but only understanding, that it may get too late… The social "right time" will come for me in a few years, when I get enough experience in my field and enter a good job. I will be close to 30 by that time.

That is my understanding of "the right time", but I should mention that above all, marriage should be based on love, children should grow up in love, which is impossible without "the right person". It takes time (luck, chance) to find one.

The ideal age of marriage differ from Society to other Society and from time to time. My father get married when he was 17 old while my brother and sister get married when they have around 24.the applicable age of merge is depend on many factors that govern  marriage operation like financial ability and the custom of the country.

 in my opinion the best old to get marriage is 24.if you have merge while your young, your kid will become your brother in the futur.also, the marriage will make you happy if you select the  Wright person. in addition, marriage  will improve your health and body.it is a decision that anyone should take it. no one will stay  single in whole of his life. the marriage will change your live and may change your mind also:). it   takes you to different way.

I am still signle:)  but i invite every one to get married
