Jealousy and Child Marriage
I have come across various article against child marriage in recent time. Made me thinking
( and blogging) !!
What is child marriage ? It is a marriage between two childs. I dont see any problem here. Why should it be. If it was a marriage between an adult and a child, there is a problem. There is nothing unethical in child marriage between 2 kids. They are some who say education is more important than child marriage. I ask them how is child marriage related to education. There is no correlation between marriage and illiteracy. Marriage may infact inspire both the guy kid and the girl kid to study more and better. Another set of argument is that they dont know about each other or about the world. Damn..... but I think gen X kids be it urban or rural area know more about world and profit-booking than the present generation of adults. Did you forget the MMS action in Delhi ?
Anyway it is not only difficult but impossible to understand girls. So why waste time ? Havent you seen girl kid interested in makeup and the guy kid in trying to impress her. What is going to change when they reach adulthood.
Why play a villian in "imposing" what we want them to do ? If they want to marry why not or if their parents want them to marry and the kid have no problem why not ? It is difficult to make kids do things which they dont like anyway.
On the other hand child marriage has lot of advantages. In this time of divorces, if the divorce happens at an early age that not so bad. Imagine someone marrying at 27 and then divorcing at 32. It is a no-win situation from there. Or for that case where the guys become super-intellectual...like Sir Isaac Newton , then it would be impossible to find a girl for him. Same goes for girl becoming more intelligent than she should be. Lastly but not leastly if you think about profit-booking, you will realise...child marriage has a positive role to play in profit booking. Researches have shown that people book more profit if they marry early. So the earlier the better.
So I simply dont understand why the need for hue and cry about child marriage. Forced marriage is something I am totally against. Marrying a child to an adult is a serious moral , ethical and legal issue..But prevention of child marriage... Come on ? Go and mind your own business. Okay ?

Interesting you should say that it is difficult to find girls for super intellectuals. The fact is ( i believe) they make it difficult themselves. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World's_Youngest_Doctor
