Well, then yours and mine point of  view are completely different. Lets stop at that. Europe has great lifestyle? that is the reason why their economy is getting impacted day by day. Their country is being taken over by the immigrants. I still feel marriage brings the stability and forces one to be commited becasue as human we do not like to be committed otherwise. We will see the outcome few years down the lane... i am not saying marrying anyone in that case, i am talking about marrying the person you love and want to spend your life with.

About India, which world you are in ? they are becoming one of the most modern society and yes there are problems in villages but i am talking about people like you and me..educated urban families and not about some village in an Indian corner. I think sometimes that Mumbai and Bangalore are better than many US cities in terms of everything.

You need to look at the statistics of US. the children being raised by a single parents has increated much more past few years and you do not see any problem with that also. That is because you do not know how it is to raise a kid? A single person can never fulfill the duties of both father/mother at emotional and often at financial level as well. when you are alone raising a kid, you will have too many problems to cope with and which will definately impact the relationship with the kid. It is like in marriage, you have another person to share the problems with and thus your child will see a better you, else you will be worried all the time about raising the kid, money, time etc and that will impact the kid. I think there is a study done in that topic as well.

Looks like you are the person who sees good in everything US and Europe and bad in everything Nepali, Indian.
