Marriage, education and children – your opinions?
Hello everyone 😊
I am planning to get married in 2027 and start an apprenticeship (Ausbildung) in 2028. The training will last 3 years.
(I‘m 18 years old and He is 21 years old !)
(We are now in a distance relationship, each of us is in a country)
Personally, I would prefer to wait until I finish my training before having children. I want to focus fully on my studies, achieve good results, and really concentrate on it. And I want to enjoy and satisfy my life with my husband because we are now in a distance relationship and we will get married next year
Afterwards, I would like to have a baby in a calm and stable way and then be able to fully focus on the child.
I also want to enjoy time with my husband first, make beautiful memories together, and experience our life as a married couple before having children.
However, my husband would like to have children already in the first year of marriage.
Therefore, I would really like to hear your opinions and experiences, especially from women in Switzerland who did an apprenticeship while being married or having children.
Was it difficult?
Would you prefer to wait or not?
How was it financially and mentally?
Thank you 😊
