The April contest #2 by the sduttaskitchen/child marriage
Good day to all my fellow steemians, today contest is such an interesting and amazing one, knowing about early age marriage of children and my opinion to it is such an interesting 🤓 one to write about
Do you support early-age marriages? Share your opinion!
First of all i will like to define what "marriage" is all about; Marriage can simply be define as the willingness or a union of two or more people that creates a family tie and carries legal, social, and religious rights and responsibilities.
According to what I have experienced I do not support early -marriages because if a child(girl) without knowing her fundamental human rights goes on to marriage the husband being older than her mother might take advantage of her innocence e.g by fornicating arrond with other girls outthere
And secondly the most reason I stand against early -marriages is i have witnessed it before in my community I will like to tell a brief story eg,
"I have a neighbour right now in my community that her parents forced into early marriage her marriage proved to be a tragedy. She wanted love, finishing her education,sexual gratification, children, and social prestige; but life blasted all her hopes. Her husband didn't love her. He refused even to eat with her, and forced her to serve his meals in his room upstairs. She had no children, no social standing.
The reason why the man married such a young girl is because of the girls parents, her parents feel that to train a girl child in school is a waste of time that is why they forced their daughter to marry the man, the young have no choice but to follow her parents instructions and now their marriage is gradually coming to an end, after i saw this I will not advise anyone to go for early marriage.
Before thinking of marriage, which points should parents keep in their mind? And how we can reduce child trafficking!
The most important point that parents should follow is one; My making sure their child is older enough to avoid the man from over shadowing her,
Making sure that they advise their child to become a model first before thinking 🤔 of marriage, because some men will respect her if she have her own source of income for the family and lastly making sure their child is educated, if most parents follow this point I have mentioned their family will be a better place
To reduce child trafficking parents need to stop early marriage of their children and stop trusting people anyhow.
Do you believe proper education can play a significant role
Educating a child can play a significant role, because if parents educate their children he/she will be wiser and more global to stand on their feet to defend themselves wherever they find their -self.
I will like to invite @bossj23 @anthony002 @josepha @entity01 to participate in this contest thanks
