| description | Commonly, teenage marriage affects schooling and being gainfully employed to support the
family in later life. Most studies focused on the effects of marriage at the young age.
However, less research is focusing on the experience of marriage from the perspective of the
teenagers who get married at the teen age. This article aims to answer the following
questions: (1) what are the experiences of teenage marriages, and (2) what are their views on
teenage marriage. The article is based on semi-structured interviews with seven girls recruited
by snowball technique, aged 15 to 23 years, married and living in Kuching, Sarawak. Data
were analyzed by thematic analysis. Seven themes emerged on marriage experiences: being
independent, nourishing patience, maintaining social boundaries, developing responsible
behaviour, being inspired, staying positive and doubting their ability as a husband or wife.
Moreover, four main themes described informants' views on teenage marriage: to avoid
immorality, immaturity, making decisions wisely and accountability. It can be concluded that
a person who gets married at the teen age is in need of help from various parties, especially
parents and friends as well as community not to be stigmatized for being married at the teen
age. |
