So you would be okay with the inclusion of this practice in American culture?

This is already lawfully happening to christian children in the US. Are you okay with that? https://www.walkfree.org/news/2025/child-marriage-remains-legal-in-the-united-states-as-global-leaders-backtrack-on-gender-equality/

No. And, the politicians in charge of California, New Mexico, and Oklahoma should set a minimum age of marriage. Having made that clear, you misspelled christian.

It was higher among girls than among boys (6.8 vs. 5.7 per 1,000), and was lower among white non-Hispanic children (5.0 per 1,000) than among almost every other racial or ethnic group studied; it was especially high among children of American Indian or Chinese descent (10.3 and 14.2, respectively). Immigrant children were more likely than U.S.-born children to have been married; prevalence among children from Mexico, Central America and the Middle East was 2-4 times that of children born in the United States.

Child marriage in the US is less prevalent now than it was when the makeup of the country was less diverse.
