Early marriage, especially of young girls, is a serious social problem that affects their health, education and future. When children are married at a young age, they are not mentally or physically prepared for the responsibilities of married life. Early marriage also often forces them to leave school, which limits their opportunities for education and career development. As a result, they may face poverty and dependence throughout their lives.
The practice can also cause serious health risks, especially for young girls, such as pregnancy-related complications. This can lead to long-term health problems for both the mother and the child. We must raise awareness and encourage families to support education and delay marriage until children are mature and ready for such responsibilities.
