Quite a disbelieve
Gotten really surprised when I read this news from The Star Online. Two 13 year-olds got married in a mass wedding ceremony in Hulu Terengganu. Don't you think they're still a bit too young for such commitments and responsibilities? I do!!!
Is it actually legal even with the approval of both parents?

Are the parents so backward?! It's so irresponsible to let the children get married at such age when they should be studying!

I agree. And I'm sure they don't have the means of taking care of themselves yet...

Actually yeah, I reckon it's legal for them to be married... And as the article says, it is a custom in their community. I know it doesn't mean that they have to get married upon reaching puberty, but I suppose it's nothing unusual to them...
And besides the tok batin's reasoning might have been it'd prevent any 'accidents' of any sort... shrugs... Who are we to judge anyway?

Wonder how would they support a family at this age. Well who knows if they were caught doing "something" then advised to marry

at their age, they're probably being supported rather than to support...
and maybe it's their way of preventing 'accidents'

Micchy my dear... the only B word I could relate right now is "B-U-S-Y". So I didn't have time to write much. Unlike you, can write at least one post every day.
But dun worry, I've got some things to post very soon... stay tuned
