Essay on Child Marriage in India (700 Words)

Essay on Child Marriage in India
(700 Words)
ABHINAV TIWARI

Child marriage means that two children are forced to marry each other with the consent of the two families. The children are forced into the institution of marriage without knowing about its significance in the long run.
Though parents are of the opinion that they involve their children in such rituals because it is an age old custom and it will also secure the future of their children but the reality is not so. Though in some cases parents believe in such superstitions and dogmas in other cases greed is the most significant factor.

How can a girl’s future become secured if she gets married to a man who is 60 years of age while the girl herself is barely 14 or 15? Only their parent’s future will be secured with the amount of money the man and his family pay in return of the girl.

This heinous crime cannot be termed as marriage it is simply selling of the girl child. The man will molest her at a tender age and at the same time he will kiss death pretty soon. The girl will end up being so horrified with the custom of marriage that she will dare not enter the institution again. A whole future filled with frustration and anger will result thereby.
The sad news is that the institution of child marriage

    Peyote Hunt Summary

    Barbara Myeroff, of Peyote Hunt, The Sacred Journey of the Huichol Indians, writes of the rituals within the Huichol religion and generalizes, “Rituals occur, significantly, in dangerous situations” (239). These dangerous situations often occur as a result of a time of change and the dangers may either be a literal physical risk to well-being or it can be a perceived fear. It is interpreted that ritual can be utilized to stabilize a variety of dangerous changing environments to meet societal norms, so that the danger may be controlled.…

    Criticially Evaluate One or More of Your Explanations of Group Display in Humans

    As for religious rituals, self-inflicted aggression as an initiation rite has been explained by the costly signalling theory, as the inherent costs of religious rituals contribute to the success of religion. By engaging in painful rituals, the individual signals commitment to a group and its values, promoting the adaptive benefit of inter-group co-operation. Zahavi (1997) claims that the costs also serve as deterrents to those who do not believe in a group’s teaching but wish to take advantages of its benefits. Sports events and xenophobia have been explained similarly. Shaw and Wong (1989) claim that natural…

    Religious Ritual In Religion

    Seen as a crucial and pivotal element in the process of deepening spiritual understanding, religious ritual plays a fundamental role in building both personal and cultural identity, an act that expresses and emphasises the things that bind a faith community together. In all religions, the milestones of a practitioner’s life are highlighted and celebrated through ritual and ceremony. These events often include both birth and death, marriage and coming of age. Several features play an indispensable role within rituals, such as the presence of representative symbols, people or religious leaders and music, features that have been central to both worship and ritual since primordial…

    Ageism In Movies

    Women over 30s or 40s are usually the target of age discrimination. (Walker). When Zoe Saldana was thirty-six, she was rejected by the director for being "too old". (Bertodano) . According to an interview of Zoe Saldana, “By the time you’re 28 you’re expired, you’re playing mommy roles.” (Saldana). Age inequality was significantly shown in many romance movies. The gap of age differences was immense. Aging stars are still being paired with actresses who could be their daughter, in films from "Pretty Woman" to "The Girl With a Dragon Tattoo. (The Wrap).…

    Bathroom and Rituals

    Rituals are ceremonies and most rituals have a purpose. In my observation of Nacirema I want to know why the tribe conducts these types’ rituals. How are the rituals performed? Where are the rituals performed? Tribal rituals play a large part of everyday life in the Nacirema and American culture. Rituals are what we do on a regular basis, repeated over time; that which bring people together; shared beliefs; and loyalty. Many of the events that occur in day to day life in Nacirema are just past down customs, rituals, and beliefs. Many of our customs are a belief system past down from generation…

    Dance is an expressive art form, it gives the choreographer and dancers a chance to be able to release and engage their ideas through physical practice. Not all pieces have a meaning but may have an aesthetic level of semiotic content. As an audience we recognise and interpret movement, sometimes this is not conscious as this is an analysing tool that we all use to read situations in everyday life. This essay studies the piece The Rite of Spring (1974) by Pina Bausch (1940-2009).…

    Nola Pender’s Health Promotion Model (HPM) makes important contributions to society by promoting health and wellness through a model of health promotion and prevention (Alligood & Tomey, 2002). Her work has given nurses the foundation to "develop and execute health-promoting interventions to individuals, groups, and families in schools, nursing centers, occupational health settings and the community at large" (McEwen & Wills, 2011, p. 226). Dr. Pender is an icon in the nursing field and is assisting to move nursing from a model where illness is treated after it occurs to a model of preventing illness (Alligood & Tomey, 2002).

    Pinocchio

    The film opens with Jiminy Cricket sitting in a library singing "When You Wish Upon A Star". Addressing the camera, he starts to tell the audience why he believes in such a thing. Opening up a storybook of "Pinocchio", he explains how he came to the house of woodcarver Geppetto and his pets Figaro the cat and Cleo the fish. Geppetto has just made a little wooden puppet called Pinocchio, whom he loves dearly ("Little Wooden Puppet"). Before he goes to bed, Geppetto wishes upon the evening star that Pinocchio would become a real, live boy. As Geppetto sleeps, the Blue Fairy arrives and grants the wish partially; Pinocchio has come to life, but he is still a puppet and must prove himself worthy before becoming a real boy. However, being naive, he requires some guidance, and the Blue Fairy appoints Jiminy Cricket to be his "conscience". The cricket tells Pinocchio that anytime he needs Jiminy, all he needs to do is whistle ("Give a Little Whistle").…

    Michael Pintard

    Michael C. Pintard distinctively writes his poems in an interpretive style. His style affects his readers by allowing them to contemplate on the true reason and meaning of the words, phrases and or expressions used in his poems. An example of his interpretive style is seen in one of his poems titled ¨Steel Boot Action Whup¨! , where as he uses his poetry skills and diction to generate phrases and made up vocabulary to emphasize his point on the matter. The tone detected in the poem ¨Steel Boot Action Whup¨! is an irated tone because the overview of the poem is that Michael Pintard is in an unhappy mood and wants to take physical action against whomever he sees a problem with. For example in lines 6 through 10 it is determined that he want to seek revenge on rapists who caused harm to others by kicking them in both of their heads. The action of kicking someone is repeated throughout the poem also to emphasize the title of the poem that relates to a steel boot that is a type of footwear. The irated tone of the poem creates a tense mood for the readers because Michael Pintard bluntly expresses his idea of taking physical actions against people or type of people mentioned in the poem. The way the sentences are structured in the poem also gives us an idea that Michael Pintard likes to emphasize his trains of thought, that can be seen in lines 4,5,39 and 40 where he detaches words such as ¨senseless¨ and¨ into¨. Overall, the message of the poem, seeking revenge is well received because of the choice of style and tone Mr. Pintard wrote the poem in and expressed his…
