This is terrible. Have to have kids make the decision to end their own lives is horrible.
I fear for her, uncle, and others as she appears to have named them in the video.
She appears to be very intelligent and just putting names out there makes me question the motive behind this. Thank you world for making me very cynical đ
Incredibly sad she had to do that, it’s sad child marriage happens anywhere.
I’m really fucking tired about only negative posts or shit posts on reddit getting upvoted in the past year. You idiots are now conditioned.
She seems very intelligent for her age and any country would be lucky to have her as a citizen
11…what a man
Such a smart person at a young age. Itâs a terrible thing.
Sadly happens in Europe too nowadays…
The world over needs to put an end to this for fucks sake!
​
I can’t comprehend how anyone could possibly support child marriage in any capacity, except for being chill with pedophilia
The crazy thing is that this was in 2013

I wonder how she’s doing?
9 years later..
Matt Walsh wants this to be normal here in America.
That seriously broke my heart to see that young face… just a kid, needing to do this, and such things happen. I see this was years ago and I’d love to have an update. She needed to leave that country and it’s ridiculous culture.
I would have love to have adopted this girl and give her the childhood and freedom she desired. I mean who wouldn’t?
Story from 2021about Nada, who has been doing TED talks and more to bring change to these issues and fight for women’s rights-

I hope her uncle defends the absolute shit out of her. I hope he’s someone who can and will run off to another country if he has to to keep his niece safe.
EDIT: [He was!](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/yemen-child-bride-newcastle-education-19655174) While there were a lot of scary years between now and then, it seems that her and her uncle are now living in the UK, and she’s a regular speaker on the dangers of child marriage.
I’m so glad she had one family member did what a real parent should do.
Your entire post history is just useless shit for karma. What does karma do for you that youâd care this much?
This is so fucked up. She’s the same age as one of my nieces. Just gross.
Iâm glad this is reposted every once in a while. The resilience and strength of this child is beyond words. But so so many, as she mentions, cannot find the solution to thrusting themselves out of these situations. Must be so horrific for those children. But letâs also take this time reflect on the fact that this happens in a lot of other countries too; China, some parts of India and Africa are notorious for âmarryingâ (ie; selling) very young children to grown men.
I hate seeing these things. Nothing will ever change in those backwards countries and there really is no excuse for it.
Every area of the world where they are extremely religious, is filled with child rape and incest. This includes Tennessee
I am so happy that you got away no child should ever have to get married

This is a tradition that needs to disappear
The marriage of a girl before the age of 18, and of a boy before the age of 21 can be detrimental towards them in various ways. Child marriage is a violation of human rights. Every child has the right to be protected from this harmful practice, which has devastating consequences for individuals and society.
Child marriage is an age old tradition in many parts of the world. Donât act like itâs only muslims doing it nor is it all muslims. Focus on the issue of child marriage. It should be banned and we should raise awareness about it.
Christianity was used (in the usa) to support slavery **and** to denounce slavery. Religion isnât the issue. Reddit know-it-alls like to say itâs religion but child marriage existed before religion. We can use it to support it **or** use it to denounce it
lmao memri tv. nice
I once read a book, âMy name is Nujood, I am ten and divorcedâ about a Yemeni girl who suffered years of abuse after being forced to wed, and it kills me that this is still happening decades later.

She isnât coached she knows what the fuck is up. And after reading the rest of her story in this thread, she was right. I have two daughters, this shit makes me sick.
She’s so strong; what am inspiration
