hypna,

I was curious how often this actually happened and found this other article with some figures.

iosconews.com/…/article_3280a3fa-bc08-54ae-80e1-a…

“More than 5,400 minors were married in Michigan between 2000 and 2021, according to the nonprofit Unchained at Last. More than nine in 10 of the minors were girls, with 12 under the age of 16.”

So I guess it was mostly 16 and 17 year olds who now have to wait to 18.
