There is scientific reason, why bramhacharya is followed by grihaashtha. Unless one is mentally and physically matured, jumping into Live-ins is going to crash.

That's what Indians are best at! producing children, but when same indians come abroad and live together without marriage, everything all of sudden become normal, Be realistic and mature, it's individual' lifestyle, unless one does not interrupt in my lifestyle, i have no problem what one is doing...

Live-In's are the thing of future. Mark my words, they're pretty much going to engulf the World. Old things never can persist long enough.

Question for you mate, you believe in your culture (i also believe in mine), fine but why preaching others, there is no way you can change people' attitude by grumbling at them, all you can do is to preach your culture to your family alone that too, if all are willing to follow you
Taxman Pranabji can put a new tax called "Live-in relationship tax" @ 20% like service tax and this money should go to a separate fund called Orphaned kids fund. Later all the kids who are going to be orphaned by Live-in couples to be taken care by the government with this fund. Or else, do vasectomy and tubectomy on these Live-in couple before let them Live-in. New ideas are welcome.

What do you expect from "Bollywood", "Kollywood", "Tollywood", "Foolishwood" generation? Senselesly copying west!
People accepting and promoting Live in are nothing but the advocates of "doggy culture". It is step downhill, away from the Human civilisation towards the animal like - wild culture. This is serious and needs to be curbed immediately!
Very good concept of West, this can solve unwanted population growth. Go on living together, enjoying without a child.Marry whenever one is totally settled. Change in social norms is the call of the hour.

The thing about this article is that it has tone where it portrays the live-in-couple as innocent and the society as wrong. It's biased. I see that a lot of Indians prefer not to live-in because of the pressures from society. If these pressures were gone, live-in relationships would become very common. Then you'll see people moving in and out in months, living with different couples and so on. It's another assault on the institution of marraige. I can't say its bad in all respects. Because sometimes, when a man beats his wife, she doesn't leave him because she's scare of society and divorce. In this case, she would just walk out. But then again, if a man beats a woman, he'll do that even if its a live-in relationship. The other aspect is that of kids ofcourse. How do I convince myself that my parents actually love each other when they do not want to announce to the world and get married? It cannot be that expensive to marry, court marraiges are extremely cheap. Oh well, another example of Indians kissing western pund.

i support live in's but its not true that this good for children, what happens usually is that you end up with one child from every girl friend and the child ends up moving residence every week
living together without marriage is not new to India.There are instances that married people live with other partner though those relationship are not socialy acceptable.Once it is legalised i dont see to create any problem at all.After all many western country have legalised the same.

They should also have to ban such couple from having babies bcos after sometime if the two walk away, the kids should not end up on streets....

The kids that are born out of live-in relationship might be called as "throw-away" kids, another new term.
