National Geographic Takes Startling Look at Child Brides

Great video from National Geographic on child brides

It will challenge everything you think you know about the practice. The video is about 20 minutes long but will hold your interest the whole time.

40,000 girls are coerced into becoming child brides every single day - 7600 of which are under the age of 15. In Turkey alone, 500,000 children became child brides in the past 10 years. 

Child marriage is outlawed in most countries, but the law is very rarely enforced.

I would love to read some of your opinions after watching the video.
