When we are raising a girl, when she is a three-year-old girl dancing in a white dress at a wedding, we say, God willing, you will become a bride.  When he turns fifteen, I say when will we see your happiness  When you turn twenty-five, I wish your luck would open up too.  What does this sentence mean? (May your luck be opened)  It means that during this time your luck was closed and an event happens and the doors of happiness suddenly open and you will be lucky from the day of your marriage. Does that mean that Tena's happiness is by getting married? Comment ? That's it! That is, a rider with white horses comes after the girl and makes her happy.  With this fabulous thought, from the day after the wedding I will not need to try, everything will be ready and my needs will be met.  It means that no training has been given for us, who from the day of marriage, life is like a Handleley S bicycle, this handle must be turned on and off with force and effort, and turn it until night, in the winter weather, when the roads are frozen. This action will be repeated every day...  Why should every girl's life be judged and decided without her consent?

This situation is currently happening in Afghanistan, where all the people force their daughters into marriage due to poverty and war. Underage girls who still dream of playing but are forced to live a life together that has to be played again. In these harsh conditions of Afghanistan, girls are forced into forced marriage. Marriages that are accompanied by violence and cruelty and girls are forced to commit suicide or die prematurely due to their age during childbirth. Afghan girls are victims of violence and forced marriage in the current conditions of Afghanistan.
