In "The Ready-Made Family", the main reason Mrs. Marlow doesn't want to stop Kay (who's under 21) from marrying is that she was under 21 when Geoff Marlow proposed to her. Mrs. Marlow's mother was dead against the marriage, but Geoff had announced the wedding in the Times and at the Hunt Ball, so it couldn't be prevented without creating a gossip's field day.
