editing this page

This page is too objective and should be checked. Look at this comment: . "Our culture is obsessed with happy endings and believes that getting married can fix anything. Just look at "reality" shows like The Bachelor and Joe Millionaire and movies like Maid in Manhattan and Just Married. Their message is that getting married turn’s life into a fairy tale which is dangerous because fairy tales have nothing to do with reality. The fact is that most teen relationships, even the strongest ones usually end. In fact, people have all different kinds of ways of making a lifetime commitment to each other." This is an opinion, not a fact. And it shouldn't be on this page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.82.162.148 (talk) 05:17, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think you mean it is too subjective. I agree.Paulcaira (talk) 17:22, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For Alaska, it says if the applicant is over 34, they need parental consent. I'm pretty sure this is not the case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.113.187.196 (talk) 19:43, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Before the Teenager

According to James May's 20th Century 24 - Episode 5 - Inventing The Teenager [1] he say's "In 1900, there were... no teenagers." Shouldn't this be noted or discussed? Faro0485 (talk) 12:19, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Results and Consequences Section

Please be careful to keep an encyclopedic tone in mind when writing. I personally think much of this section is pretty questionable. I also just removed a number of sentences which seemed more blatant violations of WP:TONE, although if anybody has any objections to my deletions please state them here (or re-add them and we can discuss -- certainly within anybody's rights, hehe). Thanks! ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡbomb 06:49, 16 January 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Frankly, these issues extend well beyond the above-referenced section. Article needs to be gone through with an eye towards tone cleanup and consistency. I will try and do some of this today and tomorrow, but welcome any discussion here. ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡbomb 06:55, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with child marriage

We should merge the article teen marriage with the article child marriage, do you agree? Andreas Mamoukas (talk) 16:55, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Um, no. They are not the same thing. And unless you have WP:Reliable sources showing that they are, you should not be equating them. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 18:41, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Recent image addition

Like I recently noted on my talk page, I reverted Andreas Mamoukas on this image addition because the image caption states, "Princess Emilia of Saxony in 1533, at age 16 married George the Pious, Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, then aged 48 years." That is not a teen marriage. Teenage marriage is marriage between teenagers; it is not marriage between a teenager and a 48-year-old man. Andreas Mamoukas re-added the image. The image is inappropriate and should be removed. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 18:43, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
