I think about a girl my daughter's age being married off before she's even finished growing up, her entire future decided for her before she had a real chance to choose it herself -- stronger enforcement feels like the least we owe children in that position.
UNICEF data shows India's child marriage rate has already fallen from about 47% in 2005-06 to roughly 23% in 2019-21 under existing enforcement combined with girls' education initiatives, suggesting the current multi-pronged approach, not enforcement alone, has been the more effective lever so far.
Should the U.S. eliminate the Electoral College and use direct popular vote?
Should India prioritize economic growth over religious and social harmony?
