A thirteen year old boy was expelled from his school after they found out the he was getting married to a sixteen year old girl. The legal age to be married is sixteen for girls and eighteen for boys. However, if they have both reached puberty and their families approve they can be married. The boy has taken his school to court claiming that he should be able to return to school. He has decided to get married because his father died and his mother sick and needs help caring for the house. He just wants to finish his education to become a doctor.
This is of global importance because if the boy can be legally married then his school should not get involved. Finishing his education may better his society because he may make medical advances during his career that could benefit the global community. I think that he has a legitamet reason to be married and if her truly loves her, which he claims he does, should be married.
