Though even I was first shocked to find Mira pregnant at 23 ... I mean even I can't imagine someone being pregnant/married even at that age ... but isn't it weird ... Why is it ... that woman is 'adult' enough to get married and have sex but not adult enough to have a baby? Wouldn't she be 24 by the time she has a baby? That's how it used to be before 21st century.

It's not like they wanted to be parents at an early age ... who knows ... Maybe they did ... maybe the pills didn't kick in or the condom broke ... In the end, a child's a blessing/gift from the God. Time to deal with.

@bold: Because raising a baby is a herculean task. It takes a lot of patience and is a huge responsibility. I don't know if she's mature enough or not but considering I'm the same age as her (or maybe even older), I do find that extremely weird because I don't think I'll be ready for such a huge responsibility before 10 years.

Mira comes from an upper middle class family in Delhi, has a good education and is smart. Shouldn't she focus on her career? And even if she wants to look after the house, its still too soon to have a baby in an arranged marriage where you need time to get to know your partner.

@Red: But then shouldn't these things change in accordance with time? This is 21st century.

@Blue: this I agree with. 😆

Its good to get married and have kids early on in life in late teens and early 20s. The more independent ,and older you get, the more you realize how marriage and kids are such a nuisance. 😆

I'm sure Shahid and Mira talked about all the possibilities. We don't know Mira personally, so we have no idea how she is going to deal with all. She seems to be quite bold and mature for her age.

That was my initial thought to be honest but who said she can't have a career after the baby's born? Both have enough money that can take care of any obstacles coming their way.😉

I'm just saying, it's not alien what she is going through.

Why is it surprising Mira chose to have a baby ? Unless it is divine conception it was most likely decided by the two of them. Mira is young, but Shahid is not. This is an arranged marriage, Shahid and Mira chose to marry each other despite the age gap. She is filthy rich and could have chosen to marry anyone. What leads people to imagine Mira was career minded ? Her education ? If they wanted to start a family why does it matter what Mira's age is. She is of legal marriage age and certainly not a mother-to-be without resources.

Trust me its a very big deal in urban India especially considering the strata of society to which she belongs that is middle to upper middle class.There is no one and I mean literally no one that I have ever come across in my entire graduate and post grad college life who was married. As a matter of fact even after our post grads, most of my friends would express surprise if one of our classmates got married soon, before 25 even. I find it shocking cause the environment in which I have grown up, be it family or friends or social circle, no one gets married so soon forget having a child at this age.

Hence its a big deal cause I have no personal exposure to this phenomenon of early marriage and child and someone who belongs to the same milieu as me doing this shocks me.

Storm..

I can understand where you are coming from. I am an average middle class. And I have seen both situations as you people are discussing. Just as you are shocked at Meera having kid at 22, there are people who would shocked at not having kid at age of 26-27. 😆

None of my friends were married till we finished masters. We were exactly like you. Shocked even if someone got engaged.

But at the same time, lot of my relatives, distant cousins were engaged during their college, and married after studies. They started their family early.

I would always feel sad for them. More saddened at the fact that their parents don't seem fit for them to be independent. But trust me, most of them are independent now.. working Moms. It is really up to you.

Now when I am at the age of 30, after meeting tons of girls, I just feel, priorities are different. Urban people have different idea of life, non-urban ones have different. It's really a choice at the end. There is nothing shocking.

Some girls have grew up in a way, where they find it's pretty normal to have kids early. And they do raise kids well too. I always judged these girls. Now I don't. Who are we? It's their life. If they feel it's right. Then it's right for them.

They shouldn't be judged, and the same way we shouldn't be judged too who can't think of kids early in their life.

PS -- This thread is extreme though. All Metro City perspective. Moreover ABCD perspective. You guys have no idea how majority of India thinks or lives. 😆 Clubbing might not be in 70% India's checklist if you may know. I have a joint family. But my parents are pretty cool. I have seen both orthodox & free atmosphere. I can tell. You are just thinking One-dimensional. There is a complete different world. 😛 😆
