Her Christian community in Green Mountain Falls was pressuring her family to marry her off to her 19-year-old boyfriend. She didn\u2019t think she had the right to say no to the marriage after the mess she felt she\u2019d made. \u201cI could be the example of the shining whore in town, or I could be what everybody wanted me to be at that moment and save my family a lot of honor,\u201d DeMello said.

The law wouldn\u2019t allow a minor to marry, right?<\/p>\n<p>Wrong, as DeMello, now 42, learned.<\/p>\n<p>While most states set 18 as the minimum marriage age, exceptions in every state allow children younger than 18 to marry, typically with parental consent or judicial approval.
