However, often this cycle of poverty and gender inequality will continue. If a girl is married young and does not have access to contraception, they will likely have many children at a young age. If they are married young, they are also more likely to experience domestic violence. If they are married, they cannot go to school or work outside of the home. Therefore, they have no way to avoid dependence on their husband. Thus the cycle of poverty and childhood marriage continues. (Morris, 2018)
