The section on bride kidnapping doesn't demonstrate its relevance to this page. A kidnapped bride could be young or old, but nothing is said about that. It needs a source connecting it to child marriage or it should be removed. Zero^talk 10:26, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I get it. You guys clearly don’t want people to know about other sources, but what Mordechai A. Friedman said in his book. I can’t say he is wrong, but most sources that I read on Jewish marriage contradict what he said. The sources I’ve read said most married at teen years or early to mid or mid or mid to late or early to late. None said before 15. Some point out that Palestinian Jewish women typically married in mid to late teen years while those in Babylon married earlier. Several sources said Palestinian Jewish women married 12-18. 2601:406:5101:F500:8889:EF3D:51CD:601B (talk) 16:30, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm temporarily removing

"There are estimated to be around a hundred million child brides in Africa.^[1]"

More information and source is needed that says what the number means and who estimated it. The source says 125 million child brides, but this is more than the total number of females aged 12-18 in all of Africa. So it is quite impossible that this is the number of persons who are child brides now, even if (impossibly) all young African females are child brides. It could plausibly be the total number of married women who were children when they married, but that is only a guess.

I found a fact that might belong in this article. See the quote below

650 million women and girls alive today were married before their 18th birthday

The fact comes from the following source:
