Activists, Survivors Fight Against Child Marriage In U.S.

1. But aborting them is totally fine.

2. About time. This should have never been legal in the usa to begin with. Pedos!

3. Good. Bout time. Children should NOT be giving birth to children.

4. Some Americans are going to Asia making money for documentary of Child Marriage. Really? I thought Child Marriage in the US does not exist! Hmmm!

5. Whats crazy is that everyone is acting like underage girls don't go on Instagram and tik tok and other social media and post inappropriate and provocative things to get attention from boys and older men. Unbelievable trying to make them seem like victims

6. whoa, who would have known this kind of thing still exist in a merica?

7. What happened when parents marry the children not because children want that but some ulterior motive like they own someone money or they are drug addicts?

8. I’m not saying do it but in Utah You must be at least 15 years old to get married in Utah. However, if you are younger than 18 years old, you will need permission: If you are 16 to 18 years old, you need permission from a parent or guardian.

9. That’s absolutely insane that a child who can be married can’t divorce until 18 😳 That’s pure hypocrisy & all about allowing abuse of children.

10. Sorry, I dont feel bad for girls like Chloe. She was in a relationship with this adult man knowing it was wrong. Not saying the guy wasn't completely wrong either cause he knew better but too many teens date adults knowing that it is illegal and not caring. I had several friends do it growing up and told them they were stupid. Now children who are literally forced into marriages with men they don't know and don't like, they are definite victims.

11. Children younger than 16 are forced into marriage.

12. Should be mandatory for a Guardian Alidum to represent and give the minors full adult rights (since they're being made to act as adults) and if the permitting parent or final say-Guardian Alidum doesn't think the child is responsible enough to handle those rights as "an adult" then the duty should default to the parents to care for their minor child (and grandchild) or if minor gets married without adult rights the state should provide ongoing/frequent welfare checks and medical and psychological, other support until the minor reaches the age 18 (or 21 as many states for students enrolled in school/college) at the "husband/pedophile's expense.

13. It's basically a workaround for predators who date underage girls. Stop being a pedo guys!

14. LOOK AT THE DEVIL. ITS GOING TO BE ALL YOUR FAULT.

15. Yea but there was no political and high powered men who were customers of that pedophile that killed himself. They violated little girls and boys and that's y they don't want to change it… So they don't feel bad.

16. I know everybody has their different opinions but what I'm going to say is I don't believe in abortions I do feel like women do have a choice if they want to bring a child in this world but at the same time they can get on birth control to prevent instead of going through all of this.

17. So why was that Mexican man arrested for having a baby to his 12yr old wife?

18. NO PARENT Should have the right to get their daughter married if she doesn't want to!

19. I was married to a man that I despised at 14.

20. 결혼은 여성에게 많은 책임과 출산 성에 대해서 생각해봐야한다 경제력 건강 자녀양육 어린이가 육체적으로 정신적으로 충분히 준비가 되어있지않고 성숙해있지않은 상태에서 어른이나 누구와 결혼한다는것은 곧 노예같은 생활이 있을뿐 그것은 사랑이 아니다 부모가 미성년자의 어린아이를 결혼시키는것은 이유가 있겠으나 그것은 엄연한 죄악이다
    어린자녀가 성의 노예가 되는것과 같다

21. In some states, the marriage age is as young as 12. At 16, you're not considered mature enough to buy alcohol. You're not responsible enough to rent a car. You can't vote or enlist because you're not old enough to know exactly what you're signing up for. You can't apply for a credit card because you're not old enough to appreciate the consequences of said contract.

    But you're old enough to get married. Rrrrriiiiiggggghhhhtttt.

22. Taking away a teenager right to get married is going to upset teenagers. Yes you shouldn't get made to marry if it's not your choice. But honestly the law needs to change to better serve teens who are married. I believe you shouldn't get married until your 18 because then your of the age to legally be able to do adult things such as make medical choices and rent a apartment. But I know a young couple who as teenagers saved up there money bought land and build a house. There parents told them they couldn't get married until they had built themselves a house. Honestly I think the parents thought it would take them longer then it did.

23. Half of these comments are from predators. How tf do you start a debate on something like this??? Law of the land or not, THIS IS WRONG MORALLY!!!

24. And the people that agree with this law, is perverted themselves.

25. This is sick. It’s something wrong with people. Sooo the government “respects” the parents decision to allow their CHILD to get married but they can’t “respect” a parents decision for removing their kids from schools that teach things they’re against. Ex: critical race theory. Make it make sense.

26. Here's a great way to really help a lot of these girls so they aren't forced by their parents or others & unfortunately stupid people don't want to understand reality

    Make sure that every girl can easily get access to birth control & abortion upon request because there is absolutely no need for anyone besides the girl that should be involved in her wanting to be able to have a great life vs ruining her life & continuing human suffering by needlessly breeding

27. People don’t realize when these law were written in are grandpa and great grandpa’s time an average 14 year old was at the emotionally age of modern 17 or 18 and the only thing required to find good work was the ability the read and write my grandfather was working on the railroad to help his family pay the mortgage and put food on the table my great ant was cleaning house to help pay the mortgage and to pay for anything the family couldn’t grow them selfs and there only brother was two young to go to work and before these law were written anyone could marry at any age to anyone who was the same race depending on the state no matter how young to how large the age difference i herd about 8 year old marred a civil war veteran even thought it was a technicality her family agreed to move in with him and care for him till he died and the family would get his house and farm when he died and he marred there oldest daughter so she could get benefits from the government when he died to help her and her family as part of the deal

28. So basically this country still condones parents trafficking their children? No wonder we can't get certain laws in place. These scums infiltrate to the top levels of law.

29. I’m still surprised that Child marriages are such an open secret and legal throughout most of the country. It’s ok… until we wish we closed the loopholes during a wild cultural shift.

30. He found his Jayvian some would say

31. Changing the law isn't going to stop teen pregnancies, it's just going to force it further underground and leave these girls more vulnerable

32. Wrong these underage are burning bridges

33. Why do they blur out the dude’s face? Who cares that he doesn’t want to comment? Did he do what you said he did? Then he needs to own it and if there’s pictures of him with his child bride, then so be it. I can see blurring out the minor’s face, but why protect the adult? It was his choice. So his face.

34. So sad…focus on an education a career

35. You can say no at the altar. They can't make you go through it. You can also notify DHS! She Knew he was 22. Why was she running around with him? Interesting! She could of notified the police when she knew his age. She just lied that is not true you can filled a protective order as a minor.

36. This is absolutely disturbing, so sad that our societies, can possibly consider this as legal.

37. Is this what they are doing with kids they were sneaking in last week?
