I, myself in the situation where I promised to my old man and old woman to take good care of their family. It has been more than 8 years that my father died and early this year, my mom followed him to heaven. In their death bed, I whispered to their ears that it is fine to go and they do not worried about their family.

Yes, those who are the breadwinner in the family are one who is possible who will fall into this kind of situation. Especially if the family is having financial problems for so many years. One or more members of the family are experiencing this, especially those who are the eldest of the siblings. Almost most of their younger years were dedicated just to providing for their family.

There is a limit for everything. After marriage, you have to consider wife and kid has you family. You have to look and take care of them.save and spent money for your wife ,kid after marriage. There are other sibling in the family who earn money. Otherwise no one will be there at old age to look after if you didnt look them now. Then this parents or sibling will not be there.

It is a kind of responsibility that you have  to take care of other members of your family like brothers and sisters , as I read you promised your parents to take care of them, but this doesn't forbid you to marry and make a family with a good woman and at the same time stay beside your brothers and sisters, as they will get marry in the future and you will find yourself alone, this is life.

Most single people in my country love to take care of their family, but there are many people who would love to go out and hustle for themselves.

I didnt think it is correct. A person was not married to a family to sacrifice her life for full filling her mother in laws wish to stay will her younger son. She is spoiling his sons life for his wishes to happen TRUE. She is a selfish person, who thinks about her self only. No consideration for others persons wishes and dreams. She is spoiling the happiness of the kids and right of the kids to live with their parents. She is the main problem maker in the house. Will not give any peace to anyone she knows. She creates problems and call and tell to everyone.

Yes, it is possible to be married to a family, in the sense that when you marry someone, you also become a part of their family. In many cultures, marriage is seen as a joining of two families, not just two individuals. When you marry someone, you become a part of their family, and they become a part of yours. This means that you may need to navigate relationships with your spouse's parents, siblings, and extended family.

While being married to a family can be a positive thing, it can also come with its own set of challenges. Family dynamics can be complex, and it can take time to build relationships and establish boundaries. It's important to communicate openly with your spouse about your feelings and concerns and to work together to navigate any challenges that arise.

Ultimately, being married to a family is about building connections and creating a sense of community. With time and effort, it's possible to develop strong relationships with your spouse's family and create a happy and fulfilling family life together

Marriage to a family member is not typically accepted in most countries. In the Philippines, it is more common to marry outside of the immediate family, and there are laws in place to prevent marriages between close relatives. It is important to respect the cultural norms of any country when considering marriage.
