Maturity does not just base on age or physical appearances, it involves a lot of things; namely

Physical maturity. Anybody that wants to get marry must NOT be a teenagers, he or she must be mature physically. Marriage is neither a crèche nor a day care, it is a place of work and responsibility. Based on counseling experience, we recommend the following ages:

There must be willingness to work and provide for the family.

Must pass the test in (11 Pet 1:5-9 only)
Quality prayer life
Lover of the Bible
Working for God
Quality time with God.

Social Maturity. Ability to make and keep friends, willingness to say “I am sorry” when wrong, ability to commend, appreciate, and praise. Readiness to change and adjust where necessary.
Moral Maturity.

Ability to keep to one’s s*x partner
