An inside look at child marriage in Bangladesh

it will be back tomorrow.

do not allow them into america

Sad, until Asia shakes off their many archaic and superstitious traditions, this will never change.

Well, since the Bangladeshi govt exploits its poor for its own personal gains,,,,,as long as the people keep doing what theye doing, the poor stay poor and the govt officials get richer.

They use religion as an excuse for pedophilia. Shame on u all. Poor poor girls.

How very sad and pathetic.

Disgusting Disgusting Disgusting....worst of all is that these children have no say on who it is they marry. They are like slaves to their overbearing husbands. This to me is nothing short of abuse.

The age of marriage in the United States varies by state, but is generally 18. There are, however, two exceptions - Nebraska (19) and Mississippi (21). Most states, however, allow minors below 18 to marry (generally they have to be at least 16 but sometimes lower) with parental and/or judicial consent. Some states allow female minors below 18 to marry without parental or judicial consent, if she is pregnant.

If you can't get the parents to stop marry off their young girls to older mates, this is mostly economics for them, then you must start a campaign to appeal to the males egos and make the men look less masculine if their young brides quit school or have babies before they are 20. Most of these men already have children from a first wife, usually deceased, so the wait is no problem and would pad their egos. There are acceptable birth control practices that could help with this too. They are not the greatest, but would help.

this is THEIR culture!!! Why are even TALKING about this?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Should we invade yet another coutnry just to make bend to our laws???

Your retarded slides work real well. On to the next story.

And when the red dot turns blue, it's time to change the battery.

Their country... their LAWS none of the liberal do gooders business
as a free thinking people they can decide for themselves if they want to live by their own countries LAW's or by the corruption and liberal thinking that has destroyed america...
at least liberals are not forcing immoral homosexual marriage on their people

ESO ES COMERSE UN "LOMITO: UN FILET DE MIGNON TODOS LOS DIAS

THAT IS THEIR CULTURES,

And Hillary Clinton takes money from these godforsaken countries that commit these perverted crimes against young women. SHAMEFUL !!! Hillary is as much to blame as they are. I'm sick of her double- talking stupidity. She is an embarrassment to womanhood and this country cannot afford another "big ass mistake".

My grandmother once said "go the any older cemetary and look in the old section and see how many graves are 13 to 16 year old married girls are there. who died in child birth."
Don't believe me, go and look . I did.

ESO BANGLADESHIANOS LO QUE LES GUSTA ES PURO "LOMITO"
