YEMEN CHILD MARRIAGE

This documentary called "The Youngest Bride" (2013) shares the story of Nujood Ali, a young girl that was married off at the age of 8, then raped and beaten by her husband who bought her from her dad. It is written that it shocked the international community, why would it shock the international community when the international community know that is has been going on for thousands of years.

Child marriage remains a legal and common practice in Yemen.

As Jesus said a long time ago, "Children are not a commodity, without love they become so". 

Another aspect of what is most concerning about that report "The Youngest Bride", is that she couldn't say the word "intercourse", in court, she could only say the word "black" and they cover these youngsters in black.
