Most parents have some sort of an idea of the kind of guy they’d want their daughter to marry. Conversely, there are qualities most parents would consider to be a negative in a son-in-law.
One of those is being the same age as the parents:
A 40-year-old high school teacher and cross country coach has resigned and married a 16-year-old student.
A marriage license shows Brenton Wuchae married Windy Hager in Brunswick County, N.C., on Monday. The county board of education approved Wuchae’s resignation Tuesday — a week after he had requested it.
Maybe some sort of compromise–like the idea of waiting until the girl was 18– was completely unreasonable.
honestly, where did the may december stigma come from? I mean YEAH I would never marry a 40 yr old man if I were 16 because 1) I’m too young to fathom the responbilities of wifehood and 2) ew, wrinkled ass. but… maybe she’s just a REALLY FREAKIN MATURE 16 yr old. and maybe he… oh never mind.
