If you’re not joking, then I’ll tell you what the problem is. I’m sure that are tons of threads about this, but I’ll say it here anyways. Boys usually aren’t ready at 18. Marriage involves alot of responsibility. Most buys aren’t ready to take on that responsibility at that age. Not even chassidim get married at that age. Chassidim are usually 20 when they look to get married. That’s that culture. But in the litvishe world, most boys aren’t ready at that age. Even if you want to train boys to be ready at that age, however both mentally and physically they won’t be ready yet. They also would have to worry about parnasa even if your parents are supporting and at a young age like that most boys aren’t capable of that. In my opinion the way to solve the shidduch crisis is to continue marrying closer to your age. Marrying younger won’t work to solve the crisis right now anyways.
