Over 200,000 Children under 18 were married in a single country in the last 15 years!

I read something like this not too long ago, what a damn shame. My first thought (reading the headline) was "India or Pakistan" because I watched a documentary on arranged marriages in that region but nope. Good ole' USA as you said @"gordi" 

There is no way most people younger than 18 (I actually think it's closer to 25 or 30) understand what it means to be married, and the older people in those groups (70?! what the hell?!) should be ashamed of themselves for subjecting children to that.
