In Europe and many other countries the divorce may be so difficult that the couple if cannot continue to live together then start their own lives. The man finds his own partner and woman her own without getting a divorce because either the man or woman cannot afford a divorce and split their property and assets. Also many individuals are going after protitutes because they think marriage is too difficult thing to be tied to and that is why in some secular countries it is legal and in others the buiseness is booming.

In Islam divorce is not that easy as well. People suffer lot of financial set back and also they have to give the reason to the judge in the court.

Any ways marrying a 12 year old girl to a man is soemthing totally unacceptable.
