No it isn't. People should only get married and have children because they want to, not because they've been pressured to. In fact, we should be pressuring people to be sure they're ready for the responsibilities of both before doing either. People should fully understand what they are getting into before taking on an existing human and/or creating a new one. Far too many people just do these things because they've been conditioned to.
That's a recipe for disaster that frequently ends in divorce or people like me supporting someone else's kids through the welfare state.
