I know YOU don't see any fault in his plan. Because you are his age. I am a little older and have seen a few more things. And now I see a car possible headed for a cliff, so pardon me if I try to waive him off.

Your experience and maturity is not important for tattoos. Your knowledge of Japanese language is important for tattoos. I respect you probably more than anyone else here on this forum, but I can't bring myself to agree with what you're saying.
I bet somewhere some statistics say something like "85% of people who smoke will die of smoking related diseases" Does that mean everyone who smokes will die of smoking related diseases? No, not at all.
Because someone said in the New York Times that marriages usually don't work at young ages, that they never do? Marriages don't work sometimes, it's a part of life, and there is no way of knowing if it will work or not. But it's not your place, the New York Time's statistics, or anyone else's to express if they think it will or not. These kids might get married and grow to hate each other, or they can live until they're seven hundred and ninety years old still as in love with each other.
With all due respect, as far as I know, you're not a Psychic. He wasn't asking if you think his marriage will work or not. And it's not our place to judge, MMM.
It might, it might not.
