童婚（<18 岁）在巴基斯坦很普遍，这与负面的健康结果有关。我们的目的是描述那些自己小时候就结婚的女性对童婚做法的了解和态度。从巴基斯坦拉合尔人口最多的贫民窟地区招募了 18 岁之前结婚、结婚至少 5 年且至少生育过一胎的育龄妇女（15-49 岁）。访谈主题是根据已发表的文献和研究人员的日常观察制定的。采访由训练有素的采访员用乌尔都语进行，并翻译成英语。采访被录音、转录、分析并按主题分类。同意参与的 20 名参与者中有 19 名已婚年龄在 11 至 17 岁之间。大多数受访者没有受过教育，贫穷，从事女佣工作。大多数参与者不知道童婚对健康的负面影响。他们似乎对父母在 18 岁之前就与自己结婚的决定感到满意，甚至谴责巴基斯坦禁止童婚。文化和社区观念的强烈影响、对宗教的不同解释以及保护家庭荣誉是参与者讲述的一些原因，这些原因似乎在巴基斯坦童婚习俗的延续中发挥了作用。提高对童婚对健康负面影响的认识，实施和执行严格的禁止童婚行为的法律，促进妇女的公民权利、性健康权利和生殖健康权利，有助于消除巴基斯坦的童婚现象。
Child marriage (<18 years) is prevalent in Pakistan which is associated with negative health outcomes. Our aim is to describe women’s knowledge and attitude towards child marriage practice who themselves were married as children. Women of reproductive age (15–49 years) who were married prior to 18 years, for at least 5 years and had at least one child birth were recruited from most populous slum areas of Lahore, Pakistan. Themes for the interview were developed using published literature and everyday observations of the researchers. Interviews were conducted by trained interviewers in Urdu language and were translated into English. The interviews were tape-recorded, transcribed, analyzed and categorized into themes. Nineteen of 20 participants who agreed to participate were married between 11–17 years. Most respondents were uneducated, poor and were working as housemaids. The majority participants were unaware of the negative health outcomes of child marriages. They appeared satisfied by the decision of their parents of marrying them before 18 years, and even condemned banning child marriages in Pakistan. Strong influence of culture and community perceptions, varying interpretation of religion, and protecting family honor are some of the reasons that were narrated by the participants, which seems playing a role in continuation of child marriage practice in Pakistan. Raising awareness of the negative health outcomes of child marriage, implementing and enforcing strict laws against child marriage practice, promoting civil, sexual and reproductive health rights for women, can help eliminate child marriages in Pakistan.
