They finish college and if he goes to graduate school she supports him and if they don't already have kids she stops any outside of the home work when the baby comes. It still freaks me out, who would want to be married in college? A lot of the amazing stuff I did couldn't have happened with a spouse or kids.

One of my HS classmates went to BYU and got married at like, 20. Even in my traditional Southern town, people were shocked because usually the girls waited for a year after graduation. But, I guess it was the expected thing to do at BYU. She ended up getting divorced two years later--I guess it had to have been pretty bad to get divorced so soon.
