Re: Can a 14 year old get married?

She is a child and you are being a very irresponsible parent allowing her to live with this grown man under your roof. He is committing child sexual abuse and should be arrested and charged, and his name put on the sex offenders register. Of course they wont make an exception, the law is the law and even at 16 she can only marry with both parents approval. As a mum of three children, I cant believe that any mother could act so irresponsibly.
If the authorities find out what is happening, you too would be arrested because she is still a child and you are allowing a man to have sex with a child under your roof.
Do the right thing and ask him to leave at least until she is 16, and then, if you still think they should marry then they legally can, although quite why any mother would give her consent for her child to marry at 16 I have no idea. Do you want her to have to get divorced before she is 20? Incredible.
