Society does not believe they have the mental ability to make rational decisions. Doing so means their education is cut short. This increases the possibility that they become wards of the state.

Should people under the age of eighteen not be allowed to marry?

Marriage is a contract between two people. The law has long held that anyone under the age of majority is not able to contract, not having a full understanding or appreciation of the consequences. Therefore, to get married under the age of 18 requires parental consent. Not all states allow this and most say you have to be at least 16 to get married, even with consent. Some states allow younger marriages, but require a court order to validate that there is no coercion or 'selling' of young girls into marriage/slavery.
