The 13-year-old girl who got married was advised by the police to come to her house, what did she say that caused a storm?

Stemming from outdated customs and practices, poverty, and low educational attainment, in the border districts of the highlands, child marriage is still taking place.

Mothers and children with sad lullabies are still sung day after day behind the smoke-smoke stilts of the kitchen, far away and aimless...

Recently, social media was stirred up by a clip recording a scene where a police officer went to a 13-year-old girl's house to advise and encourage her and her family not to let her get married early, avoiding the consequences behind. . Standing in front of his family, relatives and a 13-year-old girl, the police officer said: "Tell your friends and family that minors are protected by Vietnamese law very strictly.

With or without consent, it is still rape. For sex from 14 to 16 years old, it is sexual intercourse with children. , whether that person agrees or disagrees. And now, a family organized like this is a family that is violating. Now his brother is not yet 13 years old, not 16 years old yet, but relatives have given him away to get it. husband...".

However, when people thought that it was because the two were free, the police officer calmly explained: "No, this is not freedom or not, the law is already regulated like that. I tell you like this, why does the law require a woman to be 18 years old? Because physically a woman is old enough to give birth at that age. she's pregnant, is her fetus healthy? Is her baby healthy?"...
