I try not to judge but this is NUTS...

Today I was at the gym speed walking on a treadmill watching CNN live. I couldn't hear it but I could sure read the subtitles "Saudi judge refuses to annul 8-year-old's marriage." I don't know about you but a girl that young shouldn't even be able to leave her house without her parents. Whats sad is that her dad did it to clear a debit. :main_angry:

That is sad. On the other hand, thats just how things are done in other countries

Like in some Middle East, Indian and African cultures girls are married and have children by the time they are 12

And the majority are arranged marriages set up when they are toddlers
