"Balancing Tradition and Progress: Deciding Between My Sister's Education and Marriage"
Hello everyone,I am constantly thinking about my situation and getting confused. I have 3 sisters and 1 brother (including myself). I currently have a job in sales, earning 40k, and my father also works, earning 25k. We belong to a rural area. In our community, it’s common for everyone to get married at the age of 25. I am 25, and my sister is 23. Our relatives are pressuring us to arrange my sister's marriage, but I want her to continue her studies and pursue a good career before getting married.My sister wants to take admission in an MCA program this year, which might delay her marriage by around 5 years. I’m struggling with the decision of whether to prioritize her education or go along with the pressure to arrange her marriage. This decision is heavily dependent on me.Please help me decide between my sister's education or her marriage.
Obviously education. Education can change someone's life trajectory
Thanks to guidance for a better path , I will try to provide education for their better future.
What would be better for her long term? Answer based on logics, not emotions/pressure of society/sister
Like for long term education is important, But I am earning money from this year and not have enough money and surrounding pressure also. I will try to provide education to my sister. Thanks for suggestion.
Give her education after getting job do marriage with her own money
Sometimes I am getting confused if she getting job then where to find groom for her. Thanks for suggestion 👍
