Ukrainian Shares Biggest Culture Shock Living in Canada

Mariana from Western Ukraine shares the biggest culture shock she experienced since coming to Canada. While Canadian women typically have children later in life, Ukrainian women are encouraged to have kids earlier on in life. What does she think about this? Does she prefer the Ukrainian or the Canadian approach?

This is most common for country side in Ukraine. In big cities people get married latter, around 30

It's funny to hear some older parents say they should have had kids when younger and with more energy, while some younger parents believe they miss out on life and would have preferred to have kids at a later stage after "having fun" and experiencing "lots of emotion". There are plenty of people in their late 30s still looking for the next dose of "fun" and "emotion", because the grass is always greener somewhere else. In the end, life is about choices, you can't have everything.

What tha hell bro she looks so young yo have 18 year old kids

[megamaze]

Nah. I wish I had mine earlier. I’m *tired as shit* having them in my thirties.

Instead give your prime years (20's) to corporations, who will give you nothing in return. No one on their death bed ever says "I wish I worked more".

She's totally right, you gain wisdom, experience, maturity. You make a much better parent in your 30s. In your teens on 20s it's all about hookups, parties and eventually trying to develop a career

What she means, is at thirty- five, after being tired of riding the d-carousel, dating 100 men, you can think about settling down.

She has an 18 year old Child!😳 She looks too young!🤯

[FBAagent]

having children at 18 is a child having a child 😂😂🥲😅 even 20

Difficult for young Canadians to buy a house, crazy inflation last 10 years

Ah nice to see no racist comments against Urkarians. Please bring an Indian in the video so that real racist nature of Canadians show up ♥️☺️

Where in Ukraine people make family in their 20-s?! For the last 25 years, I can literally recall like 3 couples that got married under 25, and everyone would try to tell them not to. Almost everyone gets married in their late 20-s or early 30-s.
Omg, where did you take her from? The mountains?!

[FBAagent]

By the way, the way she speaks with the hands and stuff feels very Mexican or Spanish. Very much the contrary of what I thought from a cold country (reserved, very little expression and stuff).

[luiza]

Cause we literally can’t afford to start making a family until later LOL

[bavariancarenthusiast]

Yeah listen to the ladies, nobody wants to go back into the society 50 years ago.

[danak.]

Disagree, its harder to get pregnant past 30

[Србомбоница]

Ништа нема горе него имати децу после 35е речима не могу да опишем како је маторо то и која је разлика између младих мама и старијих хаос

Having children later in life result in having less children and depopulation of a country. We need 2.1 kids /2 parents just to maintain population.

Equal rights right? Don’t see any Ukrainian men being interviewed 🙄 yay women’s rights…

[UrsaBella]

totally disagree with her. she is not the best candidate to tell the other women when to have children. she already has hers...so she does not have any need to have them...what kind of mother regrets having children?...
