Additionally, we can definitively show young kids who experience molestation, or other sexual experiences at a young age are much more likely to develop mental health problems. There is a clear negative effect there, unlike in the case of same-sex marriage (other wise now know as just marriage).

I might be mistaken but wasnt it not to long ago getting married under the age of 16 was legal? I know my wifes grand parents were married at 14 and are still happily married been over 55yrs married.

And I fully agree unwanted molestation has a life ling effect on a child.
