Many families have this theory or custom that they follow about marriage at a young age. An example is in Afghanistan almost 40% of young women were given in marriage before the age of 18 in the year of 2000 and 2009 argued the organization of Humanium Help The Children. Many young children are not ready to experiment any sexual activity and are being sexually abused by the person they were forced to marry. In many places in the world this is illegal.
