Best Answer

The only legitimate reason to become a nun is because you are answering a call from God. There have been some women who have entered the religious life for other reasons but in the end this usually doesn't work out as they either leave, or don't live the life that they should be and are going to be judged much more harshly when they die due to that.

If a woman feels the call through various means, and prays about it regularly, by the time she gets to vows she *should* know if God is actually calling her or not. We all need to pray for vocations, and for those who are called to have the strength to follow God.

Girls become nuns because they see the love of Jesus and want to become a bride of Christ after seeing the great things God had done. They want to dedicate their entire lives to the Lord

Presumably, because they are so dedicated to God that they are willing to dedicate their lives to his work full time.

How did peasants become nuns?

To become a nun, peasant woman would go to a convent and say she wanted to be one. This did not automatically make her a nun, however. She would be examined to see that she really had a calling to be a nun, and this took quite a while, perhaps years, and happened in stages. After being a novice, she would take her vows and become a nun. If a woman was not able to be a nun, which could be determined at any part of the process of become a nun, that did not automatically mean she had to leave the convent. Many women who were not nuns lived in convents. Some were educated there, some retired there, some escaped from abusive husbands there, and more than one stayed in a convent to escape the arm of the law.
