Wow. Sometimes the Jewish jokes just write themselves, don’t they? A 14 year-old girl got married to a 17 year-old boy, then got divorced. The reason why? See the bolded paragraph.

A 14-year-old Israeli girl has got a divorce from her 17-year-old husband, making her what media are describing as the country’s youngest divorcee.

The divorce came after a rabbinical court ruled that their wedding met the major requirements of Jewish law.

The two sweethearts had exchanged vows in front of friends, exchanged a ring, and the union had been consummated.

When her parents found out what had occurred, they insisted on a religious divorce, which she initially refused.

The girl is said to have initially refused her parents’ demand for the divorce, saying she wanted to live with the boy.

She said she wanted to marry him officially when she was old enough.

The Israeli press says she only changed her mind when the boy’s parents offered her money.
