Hey dear lotters, hope you're doing well, as you have noticed in the last post I wrote a kind of poem where I expressed my disappointment of life, I was these days busy shopping with my Uncle and his daughter, we are having a wedding party next month Yay that sounds nice... No, it isn't I am not happy with the wedding, my cousin is only 16 years old and here in Morocco, you can marry if you go to court and demand a certificate that allows you to marry under the age of 18. The girl is still thinking about studying she told me this but she is shy to tell her father. Now, nothing to do because they are already married on papers the court asked for some tests like if her body can handle marriage and if she is mentally stable. I am not going to attend this wedding party and be a part of this misdeed. I forgot to mention that her "husband" is now 32 years old, a teacher I don't what he is going to teach and raid his students with this backward mentality
Is that happening in your countries too? Tell me how do you feel about it???

I don’t agree with this at all. At that age you are not even mature enough. I didn’t even think the way that I think now at that age. Then him being a grown man will force her to grow up and expect her to act already and think like a 30 year old. I have no words

I have not thought of that. I don`t agree with this kind of marriage too because marriage is precious and must only be to those couples who are both in the right of age to have it. Marriage life is not easy. There are a lot of things to understand because of the big differences of both partners.

She doesn't even know the man.it is a kind of traditional wedding, sometimes traditional weddings works, what I am not okay with ,is her age, and even I the common religion here which is Islam the father is not allowed to force his daughter to marry if she is not agree with the marriage...
