I was born and reared in the South by Parents whose ancestors had been in that part of Florida since at least the 1700s. I love the South and it is home to the best people in the world.
I will have to admit there is a little something to the really young age of marriages. Back in the 70s I was working out of Dothan, Alabama. I was searching marriage records as part of my job. I was really surprised how many 14 year olds had gotten married.
Of course that is married not just hooking up.

As a matter of curiosity, what were the divorce rates for the 14-16 year olds?
