CHILD MARRIAGE

CHILD MARRIAGE

 

CHILD MARRIAGE

 

Considering child marriage in Pakistan is quite challenging mostly because of its associations with culture, tradition, and above all religion.

 

Social norms are hardly established in mass communities which affect the decision-making of parents and especially girls or early age.

 

A cause for this can be the lack of education in most areas throughout the world, marriage is considered as a time of celebration and a momentous occasion for adults.

 

For this very responsible decision, relying on young minds can cause devastating effects later.

 

Imposing the burden of marriage upon an innocent child means that their childhood is cut short and their due rights are highly compromised.

 

In Pakistan, the decision of a girl is not considered as much and hence the most important decision of her life is handed over to the adults.

 

Keeping in view the monetary condition of the spouse-to-be, the marriage is placed. No laws are kept under consideration in this regard and the quantity of dowry is much preferred.

 

Even the religion is misrepresented to give weight to a wrong stance. Although implementing all the above-mentioned stances might be difficult since the population of Pakistan is growing tremendously.

 

But implementation from a small area to large chunks and then to province and hence the whole country might be possible.

 

Religion might not be misused to prove the stance. Appropriate evidence must be considered before taking any stroke.
