No, kids should be taught that things aren't set in stone

We shouldn't follow duties if they're not working out for anybody. We shouldn't keep doing things as we always have when that doesn't work anymore, or one can go about it in a better way. One should embrace change, and not be scared of it.

In addition, people can change for the worse (or reveal their true nature), and not want to get better. My parents aren't good people, and I refuse to follow any "but it's your duty and they are your parents!!" that society and others try to press onto me. And neither will I bother with following society's standard for marriage and monogamy, and instead do what is best for me in my life.

I agree. I just think that marriage can also be an opportunity to change for the better, most of the times when both are ready for change.

Marriage was for political means first and foremost. Then it was romanticized.

If you need mariage for an opportunity to change for the better, then you shouldn't be the person to get married in the first place.
