In some countries of the world, some children may be forced to marry adults at a young age, such as the Southeast Asian country Indonesia, which allows girls aged 16 and under to marry at the request of their parents. It was supposed to be the age of serious study and happy play, but when the mind and body are immature, they will be forced to learn to be a grown man’s wife and even be raped, this is almost beyond our imagination!
Luckily, Indonesia amended the marriage law enacted in 1974 in 2019, raising the minimum legal age of marriage for women to 19, but a social incident recently erupted involving a 12-year-old girl getting pregnant . A woman stated in an online PO video that she found out the girl was 8 months pregnant, but she the person didn’t know at all!
According to extensive Indonesian media reports, the woman posted a video on the TikTok account ‘@mommychutela’. She took a girl named Xiaohua (Bunga) to the hospital for an ultrasound examination. During the 2 hour drive from the clinic, the road surface was quite rough. Xiaohua felt unwell and vomited. Later, the doctor discovered that the girl was 8 months pregnant. The woman thought Xiaohua was sexually assaulted, so she took her home for a temporary stay. Xiaohua ate snacks and watched cartoons like children of the same age, but it is quite embarrassing to have a pregnant belly.
In the video, Xiaohua is lying on the sofa, eating snacks and watching cartoons like other children, and can also obediently drink vitamins for pregnant women with water. The woman in the video sighs: “She also doesn’t understand what happened in her body. What… She was embarrassed and uncomfortable when she had to lift her clothes for inspection, she really was as innocent as a child of the same age,” Xiaohua is 12 years old as her eldest son, she should have played, how much Getting along with her family and enjoying the happiness of her adolescence, but Xiaohua has to face her protruding pregnant belly for ultrasound and childbirth.
The woman said that Xiaohua was a victim of sexual harassment before she became pregnant, but did not explain the details of the unwanted pregnancy, and Xiaohua is her gardener’s daughter, and will publish the girl’s story on the Internet, hoping to remind parents , it is necessary to protect and adequately care for children, “because crimes do not only come from strangers we do not know, but also from people close to us”.
