My neighbor is marrying off his 12 y/o girl to a 26 y/o dude
I'm currently in the city , this is happening in my village where my dad is from. We're invited.This is supposed to be ILLEGAL in my country but apparently the dude is some religious preacher so whatever is happening is holy. If I inform the police they'll marry me off to a tree (that shit happens here to whoever who goes against the gram Panchayat) and my parents will discontinue my education. The horrors of living in a 3rd world country. The marriage is in four days. How tf do I help her I have no means to visit the village unless it's the wedding day & apparently the girl gave full consent because she had a dream where Hindu God Ram asked her to get married Wack.
This is terrible, but I wanna point out this can happen in first world countries too.
I've heard of child marriages happening in small communities in America, and often among religious communities as well. Christian ones too, in fact. So it's more likely than you think.
But back to this bruh, is it bad to be married to a tree?
Okay all jokes aside,...... reply
I get the feeling that you're from India for some reason...(I think panchayats only exist there, if I'm not wrong)
This might help if you are from there,
Try the Child-helpline number, Its 1098
anyone can call this number it doesn't have to be the victim themselves
I mean, there was this case where a muslim girl was getting married in 10th grade...... 1 reply
