Their daughter, 18, is engaged to a guy she met a year ago.
I wrote "she's barely out of highschool, too young".
I check back and they deleted it.
My brother says 18 is normal for mormons. Is that true?
Yes
shareHow is that your business?
shareIt's not. But they make their lives public so I get a say.
shareNot if they delete it, apparently.
shareI saw the comment later, not sure if it's deleted or if only I can see it. It had disappeared before.
shareI had that happen last month. About ten years ago, when The Tudors was playing on US television, the game show Jeopardy used it as a topic. That got mentioned on the IMDB board for The Tudors, and people were curious. I had the Jeopardy episode on my DVR, so I took a video clip of that segment and uploaded it to Youtube then let the other IMDB users know where it was so they could see it.
Last month, I went looking for that clip on Youtube, wondering if it was still there. It was, and I saw that one of the Jeopardy contestants had posted a comment, something like "that's me!" So I replied to her comment, something like "hi, glad you found this." About the most innocuous comment imaginable. It disappeared, then came back briefly, then disappeared again forever. Weird.
"she's barely out of highschool, too young".
Everyone is different.
Well, that means that you still have more freedom of speech than them in youtube.
You can say that at 18 she's too young to marry and they will delete your comment, but nothing will happen to your account. If they say that a woman in her 30s is too old to marry, the whole channel would be deleted and their accounts would be banned.
If you were dealing with the FLDS, that group also tends to marry 12 YEAR OLDS, which is also why their LEADER was given a LIFE SENTENCE and put in jail:

The lowest age of marriage is 12 for any (female) citizen regardless of religion 🤷♀️
