A new dress... an unprecedented luxury for teenage girls in the rural area of Senegal writes the Mirror” broadcasts Indexline.

But her joy turned to shock when she saw that her dress was about marriage and that the songs she was listening to were about her wedding.

Alima, only 14, had no idea that her father had sold her to marry a cousin twice her age.

She says her dreams of being a cook were over. Instead, she would be forced to leave home, leave school, and become a mother.

It says that there were many girls like Alima who were married at an early age.

Some of the stories that circulated in this district were different:
R-Violence in marriage, where a child bride was beaten in sex.
· A 12-year-old is forced to marry a man over the age of 60.
·Angonia of teenagers born before their bodies are completely ready
· The tired young mothers were working the land to provide a life for their families.
The Alima and the girls we met are among the millions forced into early marriages around the world, said among other things in this story at the “The Mirror”.
About 42,000 of them are in Senegal, including 11,000 illegally married people before the age of 15.

The day after her marriage, Alima was sent to a remote village to cook and clean for her husband's family.

She said: “Night, I often cry for my mother. I miss my family so much. Now I'm used to my husband, but I don't want him.

I asked my father not to marry me, but everything was arranged. My sisters were married even younger.

It's a tradition in our village. You shouldn't say before you get married. Getting married has killed all my dreams. My job is very painful and I'm lonely and hungry “.

Hamchatou Blade is another 16-year-old who is married at a young age.
Hamchatou says she is at least grateful that her husband has not hit her. Many other young daughters - in - law, such as Kadditoou Gadgigo, have experienced terrible violence, writes The World, broadcasts Indexline.

She was 14 when her parents arranged her marriage, with a 28-year-old soldier stationed in their village.

She was sent to live with his family over 100 miles away. He refused to send enough money to buy food. Then he started forcing her into sex. He beat her so badly in the last weeks of her pregnancy that she had to perform the extraordinary Caesaric birth.
Maybe she's one of the lucky ones because she's saved her marriage.
Now 23, she and her three - year - old daughter live with her family.
Cadidiotoou said: “My husband has tried to bring me back to him. I'm scared of him because he's violent. I forgive my parents for making me marry so young, but I want better for my daughter. She's staying at school. ”
And the other girl, Dieimaba Diamoulha, married at age 12 to a man in the 1960s. She had a child at age 16, and almost died after her baby, malnourished body, couldn't afford to follow the Index.
She continued to have four other children and is now 36. Her husband is over 80 years old and too old for support.
These are some of the stories that young women married to violence remember and live in extreme addiction.
