Let's see... I'm 34 and I have a 14 year-old son... that woman is 8 years older than ME even and I'm his mother!

Yes... I think that's more than a *little* ridiculous and should be illegal. What reason on EARTH should those two have for getting married? Love? Lust? I see no rational reason why 1) the parents should have approved, 2) the boy would have wanted to or 3) why the judge/preacher would have been able to sleep at night after performing that ceremony.

*shudder* It's just sick!

And.... I think it's wrong the other way around - it makes no difference that the woman is older and the boy is younger. It's gross with an old man marrying a young girl too. Shit, at least wait until they're 18. That's quite an age-difference stretch but at least they'd both be adults!
