10 Year Olds Marry in Jamaica [Pictures]

On the Island of Jamaica recently thirtynine 10, 11, and 12 year old elegantly dressed boys and
girls exchanged marriage vows and started a new phase in their young lives as newlyweds,
even before graduating from primary school. It's a new experiment being conducted by the
Social Welfare & Education Department of the Ministry of Youth and Sports in an attempt to discover
whether early marriages will enhance the chances of persons remaining married throughout their lives,
or whether persons who marry later will remain so.
