@FlutePlayer777 Depends on the place. Even in the US "child brides" exist, even legally, in some places so long as the parents consented to it in writing.
anyone seeing this episode. ... things arent what they appear. The girl isnt just shaking cause she scared. The fire accident was a blessing. Taking her away from (whatever allow 12y to be married) to a house filled with caring people (hospital) . Her body is actually noticing the change in the environment and breaks down, as she finally allowed to break down..... As she coming back it isn't a coincidence the marriage and the dolls are shown. or rather thats why she starts moving again. She honestly isnt there, but her body just want others to know how she was suffered and DEMAND change, this is so much on a body-emotional experience, then regular conversation. Its beautifully shown too.
@KreekCraft_Fan_lucy oh, how I hate when people say this. Well, duh. It's a show. So what? People usually can empathise with shows and books, that's why we watch them.
ARe thee really a lot of Child Marriages in the US na/d/or in New York. I live in New York. I am a lot more worreied about being pushed onto the Subway Tracks or randomly assualted or robbed by a Crazy person than about Child Marraige.
I’ve not yet read Jeanette McCurdy’s book, but I’ve heard it’s a GREAT exposure of the way parents take advantage of their beautiful and talented children for the sake of their own greed. I really want to read it.
I just read a description of the rest of the episode. Lily’s new husband tells her brother (who started the fire) that there is no law against child marriage. Well there should be!
A lot of states allow it if both parents sign it off. It's just hardly ever talked about. Even like right after birth and such. Like a few ages have no age limit, and a few others do have an age limit.
Damn "states rights", there needs to be an absolute federal ban on child marriage with zero exceptions for religion or anything else, and it needs a damn life in prison sentence for those who arrange and are involved in making a young person go through with one.
Many nations around the world have passed strict laws against these child marriages I’m originally from Kenya and the law passed years ago will get you 20yrs in prison they equate child marriages to child sex slavery. In the US only 6 states have passed no exception child marriage laws. Virginia passed a ban on the exception of minors who are emancipated provided they are both minors. Even if you live in these six states that have zero tolerance like New York one can marry in another state that allows it like Missouri and there is nothing that NY can do about it coz all states have to respect each other’s laws. I find it ironic that the US goes around the world preaching about women’s rights yet they have one of the poorest women outcomes among developed countries with over 250,000 child marriages and that’s only in the past 30 yrs and 87% of child marriages involved girls marrying men who are at least on average 10+yrs older. This is due to not only to state rights but also the two party system that monopolizes the political system only addressing women’s issues when it’s convenient for them because politics matter more than the general welfare of a child. The federal government will only address child marriages if people add immense pressure upon it to act in the best interest of children and their communities.
Ikr? I thought for sure, they had gotten a young looking older actress for the role (wasn't familiar with her before) but holy cow... she's really just 13 😮
I've often thought that about the child actors who play r*pe victims on law and order: SVU and other criminal shows involving child abuse. They are literal children, and have to confront such a disturbing subject in order to play the role. :(
Correction; she's no "mom", at best she's a fairy tale step-mother, and "her son" is most accurately referred to as "the child-trafficking victim's brother; the hero."
@@EerielaiChild marriage is legal in 40 states in the USA. 5 of those states have no minimum age requirement. Between 2000 and 2018 there were 300,000 child marriages in the USA. It absolutely does happen.
I haven't been watching this show for long, but Iggy is already my favorite character. His technique with Lily is perfect. This world definitely needs more doctors like him.
The entire situation is disturbing and horrifically happens each day. It’s terrifying to see, in this situation, how many “wedding” guests were. That that many people were ok with it
In what actual way is this going to be the new normal? Show me the statistics that show underage marriage in America is on the rise and being fully accepted
@@gregjenkinson7512 The fact that underage marriage is legal in most of the states in America says alot. In fact the conservative Republicans actually voted against making it illegal. Ohio actually randomly deleted underage marriage data of children less than 15 years old and Tennessee don't count underage marriages if there is less than 10 underage marriage that year. There have been 5 reports of 10 years old marriages, 78 cases of 13 years old and more than 1200 of 14 years old marriages. You want statistics then you tell the states not to secretly delete child marriage data.
I posted this in a different comment but it’s important to reiterate Not all states have marital rape Pedophilia and Statutory rape isn’t covered if your married Most states don’t have a set age for marriage, even though a lot have a minimum set for age of consent (and since parents gave consent for her it doesn’t matter) This means mom and dad gave the go ahead, the marriage is legal, and the wedding night isn’t considered rape Her husband is now her legal custodian, so CPS aren’t going to be able to really do anything She can’t ran away to a women’s shelter until she’s 18 (they legally cannot accept her before then) She can’t file for divorce or annualment because she’s still a minor and needs permission from her legal custodian She cannot open a bank account or a credit card until she’s 18 without an adult She cannot hold a job until she’s 14 or 15 She can’t file for legal emancipation because she doesn’t meet the requirements to qualify The only thing she can do is hide, bide her time, and get birth control no questions asked from planned parenthood, and hope she doesn’t get pregnant until she’s old enough to make a run for it
The only states that have no minimum age for marriage are California, Idaho, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming. Most states for have a minimum.
Most states have a minimum age of marriage at 16, to have 14, two have 15, and two have no it undefined. This is illegal everywhere in the country but two states.
as someone with a dissociative disorder and history of csa lily's initial presentation is very similar to when i experience dissociative catatonia the way the mother talks about protecting her while setting her up to be abused is also very familiar!
I must say the make up crew made a wonderful job. After she was admitted and her wedding make up was removed she looks just like a scared kid But with her wedding make up on she is extremely creepy. Because that is not how you would make up a child - they tried to make her look like a miniature adult. extremely jarring
I was also thinking this! With the makeup she looks… unsettling. Like she has the height and dressed as a flower girl but she looks as if you had photoshopped a woman’s face into a child’s head
Love this show. Young girl is a fabulous actress. Her expressions, her body movements or lack thereof, was impressive. As far as age, it should be illegal worldwide.
I just want to point out that child marriage is unfortunately legal in the US and we need to end it somehow. Usually the legal age to get married is lower for girls than boys, check your state's laws. No one in middle school should be getting married, ever!
For a minute I was like "Oh man, she must be in so much psychological shock that she thinks she was the bride" before realizing actually, just another normal day in the land of the free.
I’ve seen a lot of medical shows, but no episode of any of them have or ever will f- me up as much as this one. I think I’ll be thinking about this one forever.
@@downhomesunset Yea and it's about reproductive rights or something like that. Guy is an uber religious creep and the 'team' helps her through the situation and whatnot.
So heartbreaking 🥺 love that guy as an actor tho, but I feel like this specific character shows his depth & his connection to not only his character but the other characters that his character has to counsel 🙏
I have a feeling the mum knew about this!!!!! and she did know. HOW CAN SHE LITERALLY APPROVE OF SUCH A THING. Child marriage should be illegal. literally disappointing.
I just read in the comments, that actually it was illegal for the girl to get married in NY, and the MOTHER went to another state to get the license, so she did not only knew, she was totally supporting it. And the person who initiated the fire, was the girl's brother.
For sure, they usually get dismissed because when you think of psychologists in healthcare you think immediately of the "so tell me how you feel" therapists that really don't do much, I think this show in general highlights how useful psychologists are
the girl playing the 12 y.o is a beautiful young actress, she did an amazing job with this acting. i hope she can do what she loves whether that be acting or doing something else!
When I watched the show with my dad we made fun of the dwarf doctor, it was funny but yeah the guy's solid. The deaf doctor was a bit annoying with her high pitched noises but was otherwise brilliant, hijab doctor idk didn't get much screen time in comparison
He played that scene so well, you can see him connecting the dots but at the same time fighting to find a more common possibility then the horror he just heard. Marriage really shouldn’t start before 18 , heck I’d say we need to move smoking , and marriage and being an adult in general to 21 since the brain is more developed then.
Yeah but the brain's also more developed at 25, should we move it to there? 18 is already fairly developed, the fact Americans make 21 the legal drinking age but 18 to join the army is absurd
I just thought of something. The description said the explosion happened during the vows. If the vows weren’t complete or the minister didn’t “pronounce” them husband and wife, would that mean they aren’t technically married?
Spoilers: . . . . . It was her 15 year old brother who planted a smoke bømb. He didn’t mean to start a fire. He just wanted to save his sister. Also, no one got arrested. The mother got a marriage license in a different state. So, everything was 100% legal.
I was drinking when the reveal started. The water literally flew through my mouth and my husband (who doesn't know English), asked me what happened. He almost chocked on his chips when I explained.
Usually doctors make vague promises that don't give a patient false hope. So interested of, 'i promise we will make u better' its usually, 'i promise we will try our best/do what we can'. In real life, the word promise isn't used really as it can make it seem like they're still telling u something that might not be true, but more vague questions are the norm, especially for people who are having a more difficult time
And politicians say that they are all for "protecting the children" but wont make child marriages illegal, create better gun laws, and help the children in foster care.
Majority of foster "parents" are grotesquely abusive and are just in it for the money. Plus kids get shipped from home to home to home, only allowed to take one bag with them, and once they turn 18 are kicked out since the checks stop. There ARE amazingly loving, selfless foster parents also, believe me, mine were and then adopted me. But the sad facts are that the majority are vicious and do some severe harm to the innocent kids. Some see it as a "factory" with conveyor belts bringing the kids in. I mean bringing the paycheck in and that's all that matters.
@@SariennMusic73I was in a foster home where the other kids and I were forced to work. Clean and cook with crazy punishments if we didn’t do it right. In another home I was SA by their adopted children. But most homes ignored me. Out of 11 homes there was one wonderful family. I still talk to them they found me once I was 18. It’s the only part of my childhood that was normal.
No, one party's politicians. Put child marriage up for a vote. All votes to defend it will come from the party of "family values", who just installed a serial predator. Again.
My dear friend was FLDS from the St. George, Utah area. She was married against her will at 15 to an adult. He committed suicide when she was 16. Thank goodness she wasn't pregnant yet.
The way I would have started bawling and crawled into her bed to hold her and tell her I'm sorry. And for anyone who thinks thats unprofessional, it isn't unprofessional to cry and feel and show emotion in front of patients and their families. It shows them you care about them, their loved one. One night when I was panicking, my paramedic put his hand on my knee and left it there the whole ride to the hospital. I felt so comforted.
The same folks fighting tooth and nail to keep child marriage legal are the ones accusing just about everyone else of being “groomers” in what might just be the worlds strongest projection not found in a movie theater.
@@ucky9675 Actually, it's not. Some republican legislatures are trying to lower the marital age to 12! In the meanwhile there are other republicans screaming that democrats are "groomers" without a single shred of evidence.
Yeah this is something that should be an easy vote for EVERYONE! Marriage is for ADULTS. Teens who are more mature for their age? That's a discussion and maybe set it at 17. Because any Young let and its iffy territory!
@sackett family no, teens can't be mature enough for marriage. They can't even sign a contract yet. They've never payed a bill. They still need permission to go to the bathroom 8 hours a day. They are enough ready for a marriage.
@@pixiewixiechu a large majority yes! But I'm homeschooled and in those circles maturity can happen much younger. And they are taught to work and enjoy it. My parents got married at 17 and 18, and under the eye of his family. For us, we started paying half our bills when we got our 1st car. Which we also paid half of... Not all teens are still children, some have already entered the adult arena.
Oh man! This is messed up in so many ways! 😣 If I found out my daughter was getting married to an older man I would do everything in my power to stop the wedding (FYI I don’t have a kid, but that’s what I would do if I had one).
The problem with this episode is that New Amsterdam is in New York and child marriage is illegal in New York. In 2021, the legal age was raised to 18 w/no exceptions, before that in 2017 it was 17 with parental consent, but even before that it was 16 with parental consent and 14 with a court order. Lily's marriage would have been illegal no matter when they wrote the episode.
It depends where the marriage certificate is signed. The ceremony itself doesn't change anything. Either way, this can and does happen in the US and that is horrific.
When I watched this I thought that the poor girl had been r*ped by the groom and she was so traumatized and confused by everything that she thought that she was the bride, because I would have never thought that marrying off a 12 year old girl was legal in a "civilized" country. Of course, both situations are pretty horrible, I hope you get my meaning.
I keep hearing conservatives talking about how wonderful and fulfilling it is to be a very young mother. I grew up knowing many girls who were raised this way and have done much the same-- at least 20 between 1979-1990. 40 years later, none of those marriages succeeded. Only 1 girl got through college, and that was beauty school, easily a third of them lost custody, over half had been or were were being treated for cervical cancer by age 30, a few died of drug &/or alcohol ODs, 2 were murdered, several ended up infertile well before the age of 25 due to untreated PID including a just-divorced 19 year old with 4 kids under age 5 all with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome who required a hysterectomy, an ileostomy, and spent a week in a medically induced coma in the ICU, bcz by the time her medicaid-approved OB/GYN appointment finally arrived her entire uterus had gone septic and rotted into her intestines. Her husband was 26, and illiterate. He sold drugs and collected scrap and liked to bring home all his buddies from the bar to have sex with her; that was how he "earned" his drinking money. After a few days her liver failed due to all the NSAIDs/alcohol she'd consumed to deal with all the pain she was in while she waited that 6 months for that appointment. 10 days after that delayed appointment she was dead and her kids placed with their 36 year old waitress grandmother and 45 year old chronically unemployed grandfather. Her daughter later gave birth at 13. She had the mental age of an 8 year old. She had 2 more in 2 years before she died of congestive heart failure. Rural US Heath Care at its 20th century best. The boys didn't turn out any better. Most were trapped in low-wage, dead-end jobs, or were worked like mules for their fathers in law until their bodies gave out. These days, the ones that didn't drink themselves to death, or wrap themselves around a tree at highway speeds, are in jail, or trapped in low-wage industries and still being hounded by the families of the girls they were never permitted to be able to acquire the means to provide for. Nobody wins when children birth children. I also had a school-friend who was [her word "seduced" my word "raped" ] by a local DJ, who was over the age of 26. She became pregnant, and gave birth in 10th grade the weekend after she turned 14 after being taken to the hospital for her appendix. She hadn't known she was pregnant, and I honestly believe her. Her mother was so religious that she hadn't allowed her to receive any formal sex education whatsoever, including what the parts of her own body were called, and their purposes. The only thing her mom taught her was "God makes women bleed for their sins", so when her periods stopped, she thought she was "right with God." She didn't even know that a penis could impregnate her until her son's 4 month checkup, because her own mother had told her that her infant son's erections meant she was a "seductive" mother and had made her stop cuddling him. City, county, state and federal money for social services and social service workers were needed to care for all of those child-headed families, their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren , whether they were "religious" or not, whether the parents "helped" or not; all those young families and their children struggled through needless hardships and suffered needless emotional trauma that permanently stunted their potential, and trapped them in generational patterns of poverty and exploitation they might otherwise have escaped. It sickens me that 30 years later, this is still the type of existence that conservative leadership believes is "best" for our children. Stunting them so they stay close and dependent.
Yeah... It's the religious people and the "conservative" voters that totally believe in raping young girls. Just tell us you are a warped person Edward.
@@JaefarSABNWThe bible acknowledges addiction and overindulgence are common in mankind. It also states that there is a way back to sobriety 1 Corinthians 10:13. The thing about context is that its everything. Galatians provides guidance on what an ideal Christian should aim for, forbearance, humility and kindness among them. Galatians talks about a life of drunkeness, which I think is entirely different from suffering from an illness, which is what alcoholism is. I'm not saying that it's not possible to be an alcoholic and be a bad person, some of the people OP's post prove that, but to say the two are inherently the same is too far. The bible is often used to justify all kinds of behaviour and arguments. That doesn't make them right. God gave man hearts and minds that we may feel and discern right from wrong. The bible can be helpful, but it isn't a substitute for God. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that God doesn't advocate for raping and abusing young women, whether you're sober or not.
I have a few relatives who were forced into child marriages and they're all divorced. One was 13 years old and was given to a grown man in marriage for $2000. The groom's father wanted to my more acreage for his farm. The bride and groom met during the ceremony and they did not like each other at all.
What the hell What kind of mother approves for her child to marry at 12? I would have called the police and CPS the second I found out that the bride was 12. The parents and “husband” should be charged.
Saudi Arabia has a minimum legal age of 17 to marry, the US has however a very much lower number... since the states choose. Honestly though, the US decentralization is worrying Poor girl
I Australia, the legal age for marriage is 18, unless 1 of you is between 16-18, in which case you need a judge to approve the marriage. Im happy we have these laws.
If you are generally against this kind of thing, please remember there is one political party that is FOR this kind of thing (and has passed laws protecting it in some states) but the Democrats are against child marriage. Something to think about.
The fact that she told all that in the end sends me chills. I had a feeling but I didn't want to accept it haha Other than that, since I work in the medical field, the vital signs were so off besides the SpO2 lol I was like, dang her heart rate is 130s and they're not doing anything about it?? plus, her blood pressure kept going up and down without it taking her arm like every 5 min or something, but then again, this is a show so whatevs ig
The fact that this guy is able to play chess with a catatonic patient to get to the bottom of an arson assault at a wedding means that he's totally in the right profession
@@LadyCheshire95 I’m in uk too, or Europe in general I would say. It is not common, (does happen,) to be in such an aware place with opinions and morals and still not be allowed to protect a child. Now uk have changed the law, no 16 or 17 year old can marry, parent consent or not.
Which is important because it makes viewers realize how many young women are really in these situations and nothing can be done as long as some States make it legal.
Poor girl. Sad that there is such a thing as “child brides.” Also makes me wonder about “child husbands.” Doubt there are many and it seems apparent that low minimum ages are just a way to prey on little girls. EDIT: per a 2019 UNICEF estimate, 115 million men and boys around the world we’re married as children, compared to 650 million women and girls.
Girls are more common because of the obsession with purity / virginity. I am not curious about the reason for boys .... hmm.... time for some research.
If we are in the ER in a trauma situation, we definitely do throw gloves on the floor if we don't have time to walk to the trash can. Especially when we have someone literally dying in front of us and we need to change gloves.
I like episodes that unfold like this. At first you're worried that the daughter is in so much traumatic shock. Though that one is true, the underlying context of why the fire took place in the first place becomes harrowing. No, the brother was not a deviant. Yes, he started the fire on purpose. Why? Coz he was protecting his sister. At least one person was sane in that wedding.
The MCI reminds me of when I worked at a hospital and once a year we would have the local area high school drama departments bus their kids in in full make up and little plackets of their character's injuries and the whole Response Team would be called in and have to go through the whole triage and admissions process without notice like a fire drill. I was absurdly proud of the fact that I was given one of the response phones to be on the response team even though I was just patient transport. The whole system broke down if transport wasn't on the ball.
Child marriage is legal in most states in the US. From time to time the states try to make it illegal but the Republicans think child marriage is OK, and fight to keep it legal. A month ago West Virginian Republicans blocked a ban on child marriage, and at the same time in Missouri a Republican senator's argument for the validity of child marriage was that child brides, in his opinion, stay married.
As a republican I can say child marriage is tragic and should be illegal everywhere. Children are not adults, they need to be protected and there are absolutely no circumstances in which an adult should be allowed to pursue a romantic/sexual relationship with a child, especially not one that legally binds that child to them possibly for life. I have never met a republican who feels any different
Didn’t Mitch McConnell say that younger brides are easier to control? I believe this was meant to be an argument for child marriage. Absolutely disgusting.

@@EerielaiChild marriage is legal in 40 states in the USA. 5 of those states have no minimum age requirement.
Between 2000 and 2018 there were 300,000 child marriages in the USA. It absolutely does happen.
I haven't been watching this show for long, but Iggy is already my favorite character. His technique with Lily is perfect. This world definitely needs more doctors like him.
All of his other acting roles have been silly, goofy, comedic roles. So to see him in something serious… it’s different.
The entire situation is disturbing and horrifically happens each day. It’s terrifying to see, in this situation, how many “wedding” guests were. That that many people were ok with it
Well it's going to be your new normal which is why they are softening you up on television for it.
In what actual way is this going to be the new normal? Show me the statistics that show underage marriage in America is on the rise and being fully accepted
@@augustcanyon3438How? The doctors want to remove her from her family for this reason but legally can’t. In fact, more people are against this
@@gregjenkinson7512 The fact that underage marriage is legal in most of the states in America says alot. In fact the conservative Republicans actually voted against making it illegal.
Ohio actually randomly deleted underage marriage data of children less than 15 years old and Tennessee don't count underage marriages if there is less than 10 underage marriage that year.
There have been 5 reports of 10 years old marriages, 78 cases of 13 years old and more than 1200 of 14 years old marriages.
You want statistics then you tell the states not to secretly delete child marriage data.
@@augustcanyon3438How do you figure it's going to be the new normal? States are finally starting to ban it.
I posted this in a different comment but it’s important to reiterate
Not all states have marital rape
Pedophilia and Statutory rape isn’t covered if your married
Most states don’t have a set age for marriage, even though a lot have a minimum set for age of consent (and since parents gave consent for her it doesn’t matter)
This means mom and dad gave the go ahead, the marriage is legal, and the wedding night isn’t considered rape
Her husband is now her legal custodian, so CPS aren’t going to be able to really do anything
She can’t ran away to a women’s shelter until she’s 18 (they legally cannot accept her before then)
She can’t file for divorce or annualment because she’s still a minor and needs permission from her legal custodian
She cannot open a bank account or a credit card until she’s 18 without an adult
She cannot hold a job until she’s 14 or 15
She can’t file for legal emancipation because she doesn’t meet the requirements to qualify
The only thing she can do is hide, bide her time, and get birth control no questions asked from planned parenthood, and hope she doesn’t get pregnant until she’s old enough to make a run for it
The only states that have no minimum age for marriage are California, Idaho, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming. Most states for have a minimum.
@@patrickd5274 That's still way too many.
Most states have a minimum age of marriage at 16, to have 14, two have 15, and two have no it undefined. This is illegal everywhere in the country but two states.
under 18 is rape in the us under 16 in the UK its all the same .................... until the facts come out ...im lucky to have two boys with morals
What country do you live in. Rape is rape and pedophiles go to jail. In this country
The child actors on this show are always so good! I really felt the fear.

Hello fellow system ❤️🩹
@@TartanSystem hello
Oof, I’m sorry.
I’m so sorry, hon. 🩹❤️
I know. The feeling
I must say the make up crew made a wonderful job.
After she was admitted and her wedding make up was removed she looks just like a scared kid
But with her wedding make up on she is extremely creepy.
Because that is not how you would make up a child - they tried to make her look like a miniature adult. extremely jarring
I was also thinking this! With the makeup she looks… unsettling. Like she has the height and dressed as a flower girl but she looks as if you had photoshopped a woman’s face into a child’s head
That girl in an incredible actor, so few words but conveyed the trauma so well.
Even though i read the comments and i knew she was the bride. When she explained i got physical chills 😢
My god, so did I. I ran cold.
Too old to be a flower girl.
I watched the show before and it did the same for me, absolutely disgusting
Love this show. Young girl is a fabulous actress. Her expressions, her body movements or lack thereof, was impressive.
As far as age, it should be illegal worldwide.
The way her mother was acting the whole time was sick. She acts like a loving mother concerned about her kid and then. . . Bam! Child bride!
I just want to point out that child marriage is unfortunately legal in the US and we need to end it somehow. Usually the legal age to get married is lower for girls than boys, check your state's laws. No one in middle school should be getting married, ever!
And that it's legal in the state I'M in. Yikes.
Or high schoolers
I'm shocked to hear this, so a 12 year old cam actually be a bride?
@@rojamillerover I don't know why this is legal. Just because a parent gives their consent shouldn't make it ok.
@@rojamillerover even worse often marriage is a legal loophole to statutory rape resulting in pregnancy.

I just read in the comments, that actually it was illegal for the girl to get married in NY, and the MOTHER went to another state to get the license, so she did not only knew, she was totally supporting it. And the person who initiated the fire, was the girl's brother.

This episode really shows how important psychologists and social workers are inside the public helath system.
For sure, they usually get dismissed because when you think of psychologists in healthcare you think immediately of the "so tell me how you feel" therapists that really don't do much, I think this show in general highlights how useful psychologists are
What episode is this?
4:47 “We all need to protect our children.” Says the woman about to marry off her CHILD! 😤
I haven´t watched the show. But the guy who keeps comforting the little girl is so wholesome.
I recommend watching it and he's Dr. Ignatius 'Iggy' Frome
the girl playing the 12 y.o is a beautiful young actress, she did an amazing job with this acting. i hope she can do what she loves whether that be acting or doing something else!
Anyone who marries a 12 year old should be arrested and jailed. And also the parents who allow this to happen
I love that this show has so many kinds of doctors, a little person doctor, a deaf doctor, someone with a hijab, etc.
When I watched the show with my dad we made fun of the dwarf doctor, it was funny but yeah the guy's solid. The deaf doctor was a bit annoying with her high pitched noises but was otherwise brilliant, hijab doctor idk didn't get much screen time in comparison
He played that scene so well, you can see him connecting the dots but at the same time fighting to find a more common possibility then the horror he just heard. Marriage really shouldn’t start before 18 , heck I’d say we need to move smoking , and marriage and being an adult in general to 21 since the brain is more developed then.
Yeah but the brain's also more developed at 25, should we move it to there? 18 is already fairly developed, the fact Americans make 21 the legal drinking age but 18 to join the army is absurd
I really love dr fromm they make him what every psychologist should be
I just thought of something. The description said the explosion happened during the vows. If the vows weren’t complete or the minister didn’t “pronounce” them husband and wife, would that mean they aren’t technically married?
What matters legally would be whether or not they signed the marriage license, which is typically done after the vows.
@@marissajensen Signed and FILED with the country clerk. Signed is meaningless until it's filed with the country clerk.
It could have been signed and filed prior which does happen to speed up the ceremony

That psych doctor is very fond of making promises. I'm only halfway through, and he's make promises at least three different times.
I've never had any doctor make promises before, because you simply cannot.
Usually doctors make vague promises that don't give a patient false hope. So interested of, 'i promise we will make u better' its usually, 'i promise we will try our best/do what we can'. In real life, the word promise isn't used really as it can make it seem like they're still telling u something that might not be true, but more vague questions are the norm, especially for people who are having a more difficult time

And politicians say that they are all for "protecting the children" but wont make child marriages illegal, create better gun laws, and help the children in foster care.
Majority of foster "parents" are grotesquely abusive and are just in it for the money. Plus kids get shipped from home to home to home, only allowed to take one bag with them, and once they turn 18 are kicked out since the checks stop.
There ARE amazingly loving, selfless foster parents also, believe me, mine were and then adopted me. But the sad facts are that the majority are vicious and do some severe harm to the innocent kids. Some see it as a "factory" with conveyor belts bringing the kids in. I mean bringing the paycheck in and that's all that matters.
@@SariennMusic73I was in a foster home where the other kids and I were forced to work. Clean and cook with crazy punishments if we didn’t do it right. In another home I was SA by their adopted children. But most homes ignored me. Out of 11 homes there was one wonderful family. I still talk to them they found me once I was 18. It’s the only part of my childhood that was normal.
I know right?! It’s sickening.
No, one party's politicians. Put child marriage up for a vote. All votes to defend it will come from the party of "family values", who just installed a serial predator. Again.
My daughter is 13,I'd *NEVER* let her marry underage. The mum is a monster for facilitating her child being abused and forced to marry
My dear friend was FLDS from the St. George, Utah area. She was married against her will at 15 to an adult. He committed suicide when she was 16. Thank goodness she wasn't pregnant yet.
The way I would have started bawling and crawled into her bed to hold her and tell her I'm sorry.
And for anyone who thinks thats unprofessional, it isn't unprofessional to cry and feel and show emotion in front of patients and their families. It shows them you care about them, their loved one. One night when I was panicking, my paramedic put his hand on my knee and left it there the whole ride to the hospital. I felt so comforted.
Very unfun fact, multiple states in the US just lowered the age for child marriages.
The same folks fighting tooth and nail to keep child marriage legal are the ones accusing just about everyone else of being “groomers” in what might just be the worlds strongest projection not found in a movie theater.
@@ucky9675 Actually, it's not. Some republican legislatures are trying to lower the marital age to 12! In the meanwhile there are other republicans screaming that democrats are "groomers" without a single shred of evidence.
Yeah this is something that should be an easy vote for EVERYONE! Marriage is for ADULTS. Teens who are more mature for their age? That's a discussion and maybe set it at 17. Because any Young let and its iffy territory!
@sackett family no, teens can't be mature enough for marriage. They can't even sign a contract yet. They've never payed a bill. They still need permission to go to the bathroom 8 hours a day. They are enough ready for a marriage.
@@pixiewixiechu a large majority yes! But I'm homeschooled and in those circles maturity can happen much younger. And they are taught to work and enjoy it. My parents got married at 17 and 18, and under the eye of his family.

Oh man! This is messed up in so many ways! 😣 If I found out my daughter was getting married to an older man I would do everything in my power to stop the wedding (FYI I don’t have a kid, but that’s what I would do if I had one).
My oldest is 15. She's smart, driven, charismatic. She loves school.
And her marrying before she's an adult would be over my dead body.
If your said daughter was getting married at a young age, it was only because you have given consent.
Tyler Labine is such a good actor and has the most expressive eyes!
I’m glad that I was laying down when I saw this scene. Despite the spoiler it still was a shock.
the ending made my heart drop
why the hell is child marriage still legal
A better question, why are some people trying to pass laws to make it more legal?
Pedophile males and the legislators who support them.
The scarier thing is…it’s reality..
Same reason they want to ban abortion. Christianity
Republicans block every attempt
The problem with this episode is that New Amsterdam is in New York and child marriage is illegal in New York. In 2021, the legal age was raised to 18 w/no exceptions, before that in 2017 it was 17 with parental consent, but even before that it was 16 with parental consent and 14 with a court order. Lily's marriage would have been illegal no matter when they wrote the episode.
It depends where the marriage certificate is signed. The ceremony itself doesn't change anything.
Either way, this can and does happen in the US and that is horrific.
Just read another comment that said the mother got a marriage license/certificate in a different state
@@shibadawn oooh. Kinda makes ruining the ceremony pointless.
@@DerpDevilDD A kid isn't necessarily going to know that, though.
@@stoverboo What about my comment has anything to do with that?
What's more chilling is the fact that there are states where this is legal, but abortion is seen as amoral.
Kids only matter when they’re not born yet
When I watched this I thought that the poor girl had been r*ped by the groom and she was so traumatized and confused by everything that she thought that she was the bride, because I would have never thought that marrying off a 12 year old girl was legal in a "civilized" country. Of course, both situations are pretty horrible, I hope you get my meaning.
Someone started the fire to save the girl from being married off, more respect for that dude then her mom
"Protect your children " right after saying someone burned the wedding down is good foreshadowing and really dark but sounds normal
I was really surprised and shocked at the end.
new amsterdam is a great show i need to rewatch
I keep hearing conservatives talking about how wonderful and fulfilling it is to be a very young mother. I grew up knowing many girls who were raised this way and have done much the same--
at least 20 between 1979-1990. 40 years later, none of those marriages succeeded.
Only 1 girl got through college, and that was beauty school, easily a third of them lost custody, over half had been or were were being treated for cervical cancer by age 30, a few died of drug &/or alcohol ODs, 2 were murdered, several ended up infertile well before the age of 25 due to untreated PID including a just-divorced 19 year old with 4 kids under age 5 all with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome who required a hysterectomy, an ileostomy, and spent a week in a medically induced coma in the ICU, bcz by the time her medicaid-approved OB/GYN appointment finally arrived her entire uterus had gone septic and rotted into her intestines.
Her husband was 26, and illiterate. He sold drugs and collected scrap and liked to bring home all his buddies from the bar to have sex with her; that was how he "earned" his drinking money.
After a few days her liver failed due to all the NSAIDs/alcohol she'd consumed to deal with all the pain she was in while she waited that 6 months for that appointment. 10 days after that delayed appointment she was dead and her kids placed with their 36 year old waitress grandmother and 45 year old chronically unemployed grandfather.
Her daughter later gave birth at 13. She had the mental age of an 8 year old. She had 2 more in 2 years before she died of congestive heart failure. Rural US Heath Care at its 20th century best.
The boys didn't turn out any better. Most were trapped in low-wage, dead-end jobs, or were worked like mules for their fathers in law until their bodies gave out. These days, the ones that didn't drink themselves to death, or wrap themselves around a tree at highway speeds, are in jail, or trapped in low-wage industries and still being hounded by the families of the girls they were never permitted to be able to acquire the means to provide for. Nobody wins when children birth children.
I also had a school-friend who was [her word "seduced" my word "raped" ] by a local DJ, who was over the age of 26. She became pregnant, and gave birth in 10th grade the weekend after she turned 14 after being taken to the hospital for her appendix.
She hadn't known she was pregnant, and I honestly believe her. Her mother was so religious that she hadn't allowed her to receive any formal sex education whatsoever, including what the parts of her own body were called, and their purposes.
The only thing her mom taught her was "God makes women bleed for their sins", so when her periods stopped, she thought she was "right with God." She didn't even know that a penis could impregnate her until her son's 4 month checkup, because her own mother had told her that her infant son's erections meant she was a "seductive" mother and had made her stop cuddling him.
City, county, state and federal money for social services and social service workers were needed to care for all of those child-headed families, their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren , whether they were "religious" or not, whether the parents "helped" or not; all those young families and their children struggled through needless hardships and suffered needless emotional trauma that permanently stunted their potential, and trapped them in generational patterns of poverty and exploitation they might otherwise have escaped.
It sickens me that 30 years later, this is still the type of existence that conservative leadership believes is "best" for our children. Stunting them so they stay close and dependent.
SO, the biblical idea works according to you?
Alcoholism is only for those destined for Hell in Galatians 5.
Yeah... It's the religious people and the "conservative" voters that totally believe in raping young girls. Just tell us you are a warped person Edward.
@@JaefarSABNWjibberish
@@JaefarSABNWThe bible acknowledges addiction and overindulgence are common in mankind. It also states that there is a way back to sobriety 1 Corinthians 10:13. The thing about context is that its everything.
Galatians provides guidance on what an ideal Christian should aim for, forbearance, humility and kindness among them.
Galatians talks about a life of drunkeness, which I think is entirely different from suffering from an illness, which is what alcoholism is. I'm not saying that it's not possible to be an alcoholic and be a bad person, some of the people OP's post prove that, but to say the two are inherently the same is too far.
The bible is often used to justify all kinds of behaviour and arguments. That doesn't make them right. God gave man hearts and minds that we may feel and discern right from wrong. The bible can be helpful, but it isn't a substitute for God.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that God doesn't advocate for raping and abusing young women, whether you're sober or not.
@nicoles7550 Addiction is the result of behavior. Alcoholic beverages and other drugs take work to get addicted
New Hampshire law allows 14 year old girls to marry. But pots not legal for adults to smoke. Makes perfect sense.
In other words, somebody started the fire to save the child.
Yeeeesss! Was thinking the same
I have a few relatives who were forced into child marriages and they're all divorced. One was 13 years old and was given to a grown man in marriage for $2000. The groom's father wanted to my more acreage for his farm. The bride and groom met during the ceremony and they did not like each other at all.
I knew it from the very beginning. I don't want to say what it is, so not spoil it for everyone. But Olivia, we need you!
What the hell
What kind of mother approves for her child to marry at 12?
I would have called the police and CPS the second I found out that the bride was 12.

I like episodes that unfold like this. At first you're worried that the daughter is in so much traumatic shock. Though that one is true, the underlying context of why the fire took place in the first place becomes harrowing. No, the brother was not a deviant. Yes, he started the fire on purpose. Why? Coz he was protecting his sister. At least one person was sane in that wedding.
The MCI reminds me of when I worked at a hospital and once a year we would have the local area high school drama departments bus their kids in in full make up and little plackets of their character's injuries and the whole Response Team would be called in and have to go through the whole triage and admissions process without notice like a fire drill. I was absurdly proud of the fact that I was given one of the response phones to be on the response team even though I was just patient transport.

Child marriage is legal in most states in the US. From time to time the states try to make it illegal but the Republicans think child marriage is OK, and fight to keep it legal. A month ago West Virginian Republicans blocked a ban on child marriage, and at the same time in Missouri a Republican senator's argument for the validity of child marriage was that child brides, in his opinion, stay married.
Well yeah they do, because they're married to their jailers.
As a republican I can say child marriage is tragic and should be illegal everywhere. Children are not adults, they need to be protected and there are absolutely no circumstances in which an adult should be allowed to pursue a romantic/sexual relationship with a child, especially not one that legally binds that child to them possibly for life. I have never met a republican who feels any different
@@ariphan1741 and yet you are a republican. There is a difference between being conservative and a republican.
