How about 21… 18 seems so much the same as 16 to me… kinda think 21 should be the new adult age for everything, they changed it for cigarettes… did she say how old her husband was when they first got married?

I think arranged marriages, in general, are fundamentally flawed… I think that you were definitely groomed by your entire community into something that had a guise of love, but it wasn’t based on solid ground as you were taught… I’m sorry for what you have been through, but I’m glad you are sharing your story… thanks 🙏

Agreed, yeah I remember being 21, 25, even into my 30’s ‘thinking NOW I’m an adult’, my 21st birthday was in army infantry boot camp… I was certainly too naive and immature to make that commitment… even at 21… to force a child of 16 years old into a marriage is very wrong… im sorry 😞

I’m glad you have been able to continue being a supportive mother, with everything that you are going through. You are very inspiring 🙏

That seems like, at the very least, secret level clearance…
