OMG! I am stunned by this news. And outraged. I had known about deep southern states marrying children but I thought, without knowing, that it was outlawed. OMG!

There’s nothing Conservative, Christian or Republican to this absurdity. It’s plain hypocrisy and perverted.

How is this even possible? Is there nothing we can all agree on that is totally wrong?

I had no idea it was so widespread. Imagine what that child’s life is like. Utter horror every minute of every day.

I'm so glad Michigan took care of this. We have the best government leads just now; all three strong women end their terms in next years midterm.

Sorry, a bit tired,I was referring to child marriage then the child described how she had to work hard (like a slave) like most women told what to do, bc of their upbringing to obey. Horrible
