It is said that children who are mistreated by their parents and learned aggressive behaviors through social interaction went on to express these behaviors later in life and in their intimate relationships (Ehrensaft, Cohen, Brown, Smailes, Chen & Johnson, 2003).

For instance, marriage nowadays depends on the willingness of the couples rather than for economic purposes or the urge to form family.
