I read an article about a study made in three rural areas of China which suggests that girls marry early whenever there is a significant spousal age difference.Moreover, girls in joint family systems marry earlier than girls in conjugal family systems. Do you think we need to work on decreasing the spousal age difference and changing family systems as a strategy to work against female child marriage in Ethiopia?
