Balatbat, Barbara Carla B. Lim, Anna Liza N. The main purpose of this study is to describe the family life of selected married De La Salle University undergraduate students.The following points are the focus of the study: conjugal relationship, household management and decision-making, parenting and child-rearing practices, perceptions of married students regarding advantages and disadvantages of early marriage, support mechanisms, and their aspirations and prospects.The study utilized an exploratory research design, consisting of nine key informants -- three males and six females. Key informant interview with the aid of an interview guide was the method used in gathering data.The major findings are as follows: the average age at marriage of the male informants is 19, while for the female informants it is 18. The average age at marriage of the male informants' spouses is 20, while for the female informants' spouses is 21. The most common reason for early marriage is pregnancy. Most of the informants reside with either their families of orientation or their in-laws, and are at the same time financially dependent on them. The informants who have children admit to having others help in taking care of the children, whether they be hired help or relatives. At the same time, the people they ask support from financially, emotionally, or in relation to the children, expect these informants to finish with their collegiate education and eventually be able to support their own families. School, child care, and other extra-curricular activities essentially need time management and planning. Early marriage is not recommended by any of the key informants, citing that studies and schooling must first be finished, and time should be given for maturity to develop. 1993-01-01T08:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/etd_bachelors/16198 Bachelor's Theses English Animo Repository Married students De La Salle University--Students Teen-age marriage Marriage Early marriage
