No child should be forced or coerced into marriage. Today, I signed legislation making New Jersey the second state in the nation to ban child marriage. New Jersey will be a national leader in protecting the welfare of children.

"The 41-year-old Muslim man took the 11-year-old girl as his fourth wife" The judge ruled that the union was illegal, but not because of the age of the child.

In early 2010, there were reports of two marriages involving a 10 and 11-year- old girls married off to men in their 40s in Kelantan. The 11-year-old was later found in a state of shock.

New Hampshire
has raised its marriage age to 16. It may be progress, but children under 18 cannot usually enter shelters, retain lawyers or file for divorce. 18 should be the minimum marriage age #endchildmarriage http://bit.ly/2I7d2FW pic.twitter.com/TpIbic7rsH -
#endchildmarriage is something we need to impose to stop as quick as possible. This is another way to abuse their freedom & their rights to choose their own future. The New Gov't shud take action on kind of action that spoils a children's life. -
Unbelievable!!!!! How can it be NOT because of the child's age?!!?!?! But at least, the father of the child did not bless the marriage and that the judge does not allow it. It's sickening! What is wrong with some of these men?!

Marriage amongst children below 18 years old deny their right to education as well as leaving them exposed to potential domestic violence and health concerns, such as childbirth-related complications.
