CHILD MARRIAGES

When a child gets married, society considers the child an adult  and expects it to  mature and take responsibility. They are in the most sensitive stages of  life when they need their own support, but such children are  responsible for taking care of someone else.

 Both boys and girls get married  early, but there are far more girls than boys who fall victim to this practice. This is mainly due to gender inequality in our society. In Pakistan, girls are considered guests of their home at birth. The purpose is to prepare them for their real home, the home of their future husband. She is often regarded as a burden to her parents and marries early to “protect her family’s honor.” 

 Early marriage affects a child’s psychological well-being and intellectual, personal and social growth. Depressed and traumatized by happy childhood experiences,  incomplete education that ruins future career prospects, overwhelmed by responsibilities and exposure to domestic violence There is an increased risk of post-traumatic stress disorder. Similarly, a  child of a man married at a young age is under financial pressure to support his family, which can interfere with his education and training. 

 We need to change  the attitude of young women towards their destiny in  society. Instead of marrying them, we send them to school so that they can grow into healthy, successful and independent individuals. This will prosper the generation that raises them
