But in the US it's legal. In a bunch of states all you need is parental consent for a teen barely out of puberty to marry an adult, and some will lower the age [if the child is already pregnant].
Yall ever seen the documentary series, keep sweet, pray, and obey? Pretty terrifying that the US allows these evangelical child sex cults to exist.
