Almost as soon as I turned 13, my mom told me to drop out of school and get married. My mom never made it past elementary school and got married as a young teen. But even after being in one dysfunctional/abusive marriage after another, it was like she wanted me to follow in her footsteps. I was being raped already by my own dad. I eventually ran away from home, I graduated high school and became the first person in my family to get a college degree. When I finally married I was 30 and married the man I fell in love with. We've been together 15 years now. To this day I am considered an embarrassment in my family and am not welcomed to family gatherings. I was even left out by my family at funerals. This is the part of America people don't know about.

The worse part is that these child bride are not co consider adults, their husband is now their legal guardian. So, let’s say an 11 year old girl is raped by a 20 yr old man and she is pregnant. He marries her and is not have the legal right to make all of her medical decisions, education decisions, ect. So, this 11 yr old can have a baby and be married, but can’t make choices about her own education, about getting birth control, or medication, ect. The rapist makes all of her choices, legally. Let that sink in. The rapist now has all of the power over her and the child and people justify it by saying, “oh, it is what is in the best interest of the baby.” Not the 11 year old, the baby, cause the baby is more important than an 11 year old being raped over and over again by her rapist.

Ivy Ruonakoski that is an argument for the courts to decide. Depending on the state the marriage of the minor may be fully legal. Even if the marriage is legal, a husband can be legally punished for raping his wife if the sex was nonconsensual. Sadly, many of these girls are young and do not know their rights nor what is really going on. Their parents "marry" them off without any care for their well-being. These girls are scared and dependent on whoever takes care of them. Remeber when you were 13-16? Even though you thought you were mature, you were still dependent on your parents to take care of food, housing, clothes, etc... that dependency is transferred to the husband. So out of fear, dependency, confusion or whatever, these girls are unsure of how to react to save themselves. Hence why their parents and husbands can take advantage of that and force them to do things that they may not want to do.

UHM i know you're probably not supporting child marriage at all, but if you think about what you just said, that's kind of fucked up. teenage pregnancy is an epidemic in the U.S, especially with so many states allowed to decide what to teach their students. some barely receive any information about safe sex, and end up with 3 kids by 18 even without their parents forcing them to. schools need to educate kids about how to NOT end up ruining an innocent child's life. bringing a child into the world you cant care for is extremely reckless. you can have a child as young as like, 10, 12 years old depending on the person. no, being old enough to make a child doesnt mean you're old enough to take care of one. that type of thinking is why kids like this get forced into shitty situations, because their parent's didnt know better because THEIR parents had them at 15 years old with no education, passing on decades of misinformation and biased opinions. i hate seeing things like this happen. Some people get angry and offended that teens have sex and end up pregnant, i get offended when they think they're capable enough to raise a child, when they aren't even capable enough to use a condom, birth control pill, iud, the shot, female condom, fucken pulling out, plan B...there are so many options.

I think her point is "just because" a person is married, Americans silence their judgement about teen pregnancies. If a 15 and 17 year-old got married and had a kid, although it is wrong, most Americans would say "at least they are married." The societal conditioning that marriage and kids go together regardless of age could be why so many child marriages happen. If a 15 year old says she is married, many don't ask the age of the husband. We likely assume he's just as young as her... not that he could be 30!

is a cultural thing. Basically, is this idea that a non-virgin would not be as desirable to a potential husband, because a "woman" who has "had a man" outside marriage is a slut, a temptress, evil, easy... . Therefore she would be condemned to public shame and of course blamed for being attacked in the first place ("you provoke him"," the way you talk", "you should have known better," blah blah blah). Additionally, given the year, in general a woman had less option in terms of work and education to support herself, therefore getting a husband became the crucial option to supposedly avoid hardship and ostracism.

So why have you and the hundreds of millions of other Americans allowed child marriage to continue? Each and everyday you and everyone else has the opportunity to help put an end to it all. Or does it feel better sitting on ass playing the "blame/complain/shame game instead?" Either way, we're all responsible because as human beings we all represent humanity.

Jaspreet, as a native Briton. I agree. Behind the lands of milk and honey in the West, there's a hidden culture amongst the elite. This is a paedophile culture, Hollywood and the music industry specifically are big into it. Watch these videos on youtube - Sun Sea and Satan by Pie n Mash and also Jimmy Saville and the 9th circle by Redpill Phil. This goes on, because the populations of the West are so conditioned, we only listen and see what we like to listen and see. And when we see something paedophilic in 3rd world countries, we always have a "it would never happen to us" attitude. Because as nations, we've become oblivious to anything and everything that we don't want to hear, which is why there are hate speech laws in Europe. They're slowly making it all normal to society.

Getting married isn't really necessary for the situation. If the biological father wants to help in-person, there are ways of arranging it without legally tying the two people to each other. Let them cohabitate until they are 18, and then decide to get married. We already have laws that hold the biological father financially responsible, even if he doesn't want to remain in the company of the mother and child.

wolfcat87 Laws are not there to prevent the 99 times something doesn't go wrong, they are there to prevent the one time it does. The concept of underaged marriage is widely used by teens who want to get married, but it also provides a legal framework for parents to pressure their children into marriages that they shouldn't be in. This is a descision that will impact the rest of your life farther than any other descision. And thus it has to be legally impossible for anyone to make this choice for you. Not even your parents.

But the government does have a child helpline on which everyday children or others call to report impending marriages, and officials are able to stop some. But parents and society are devious and they get the children married at night. And once married, the union is held legal despite the legal age for marriage being 18 for women and 21 for men.

@@spartangoku7610 So child marriage in India is illegal... The age was pushed around 10 years back to 21 years for both men and women. It also became legally harder and more enforced to have child marriages. This lead to a drop from 46% back in 2005 to now less than 3% in 2015-16 and that has fallen even more. However the number of people getting married between the ages of 18 to 21 is still at around 26% as of 2015-16. Also, what the last person said about the police being corrupt and letting it happen, may have been true in the early 2000s. Now not so much. The law is enforced and enforced strictly. And it has to be, because there are non governmental organizations that work in cohesion with the government to ensure rules are being followed and stuff like this doesnt happen. The beauty of living in a democracy is, press freedom and when stuff like this comes out into the open, heads roll. I would like to point out, that it also has alot to do with religion. Child marriages which were once the norm amongst Hindus back in early 20th century and even later, are now looked upon as a social taboo. Women are far more empowered in the Hindu community and even more so in the Sikh, Buddhist and Christian community. The Muslim community though, is a different beast all together. Child marriages are still prevalent amongst Muslims (not all, but a few), they are harder to detect and if prosecuted by the law, they'll complain of minority segregation and selective targeting of Muslims, which will ironically draw condemnation by Human rights groups and Amnesty International. And well, ever since Muslim migration to Europe increased, child marriages have now become the norm in places like the UK and most of Western Europe.

Often times, not only is the parent consenting to the marriage, but the parent is the one demanding that the teen be married, even against the teen's own wishes, due to a teenage pregnancy and antiquated ideas of what the "right thing to do" is.

Its a deeply held religious belief. What would you say if we did send out the military to round them all up? I highly doubt it would be 'Hooray for America'.

@bhk110: The only way the US Government will be able to do anything is when your Political System separates Religion from State, and l don't think that is going to happen anytime soon. The US Constitution and the Bill of Rights actually put a full stop at the end, which gives even further protection. In Australia, trust me if this was happening, it would be found out and every adult would be arrested who is involved in it and jailed. The children would be taken from them, also any other children they have, and they would Not be seeing those children again. When the children become of age, if they wish to visit their parents, they would be adults, but, at least they would have been de-briefed out of that mentality. They would have lived normal lives, and if they did want to see their parents? They may be talking to them on a phone with glass in between while they are still rotting in jail.

What? Because they're marrying young? That is insane. Who is going to take care of those kids? Nobody in their right mind wants to take care of other people's children. They'd be better off marrying young than be taken care of by the government. People have married young for thousands of years.

IKR? I think she is still stuck in a culture that tells her she can't be anything but a wife and mother, though, because she is w/ husband #2 and also had children w/ him. I wonder, once her 1st marriage ended & she had 3 kids, why she didn't decide to wait to have more children until she had been able to accomplish some things for herself....

Velma Velvet seeing as how you make major life choices in your teens, and being stripped of them has damaged her growing up as a normal child. Being 26 is not the same as going back to being 14 or 15 and I know that because I'm 17 and I could not act like I did at 14 and reshape my life by making those choices again at 17 because making them as a 14 year old is what shaped me. You can't rewind time. She was forced to have sex at an age where teens only begin to understand sex and their body. They were robbed of so much and it makes me sick.

Hypocrisy is the word you'e looking for. USA, as known for a long time, are experts in this area. They KNOW this is wrong, no need to question that when they will go the extra mile to point out relativaly mild flaws in the laws of other countries, but they're to stubborn to change themselves, the world has to follow them and not the other way around. They will not bow to their apparently "stupid" morals and ethics.

It's crazy watching this video because part of it was filmed in a small town named sandpoint in idaho, where i go up into the summers to... video hit me hard

@BloodRider 14 Unlike Zimbabwe I haven't heard any cases where the government has stepped in and confiscated farms from whites and handing them over to blacks who don't know anything about agriculture. That is here in the U.S. The regime of president Mugabe is a dictatorship and racist towards whites. They created their own economic hardship by stealing farms from thier rightful owners and handing them over to people who don't even know how to run them. Zimbabwe may or may not have underage marriages but I seriously doubt that this country is any example of real development. If so why is it such a pisspoor 3rd world nation? From I have read this country was actually better economically and politically when it was run by the white regime of Ian Smith. Then it was known as Rhodesia. This country has declined in quality after Mugabe took over. So it's a damn poor example of development. More a real case of degeneration.

Jason Lee the thing with the farms did happen in America, it was after the Civil War.

I have seen US citizens criticizing 3rd world countries including India for child marriages where they are completely illegal but some uneducated people still continue. But in case of their country,it is *legal* in some states. Now what about that?

16 and she had 5 children?? She was forced to marry her rapist at 11... When he was 20....how can they not change the law, just based on that case alone??

This is so sad. I'm 16 and I can't even begin to imagine having five children at this age :( I'm so sorry that so many girls and women in the US and all over the world have to live like this.
