      Child marriage is legal in Afghanistan and many US states.

      It’s not illegal if you marry your victim.

        Yeah I know it’s legal in Ohio, and I’m pretty sure it’s legal in every state from here to Florida, including Florida.

          Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida, all allow 17-year-olds to marry, not really “children”, and most limit it to marrying someone only a 2 or 4 years older and require judicial approval.

        California, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Washington are the only states without a minimum marriage age, and Hawaii and Kansas are only states below 16 as the minimum. In any case, it also requires parental consent, judicial approval, and/or emancipation. Florida is one the most strict states in this regard.

        Specifically Florida Statue 984.085.
