## Resource

Young Australians are marrying early—often in their late teens and early twenties—and splitting up just as fast, with over 49,000 divorces granted in 2025 alone. Driven by cultural and religious pressure to marry young, many enter relationships without the maturity to handle the commitment. For women especially, these unions can quickly turn toxic or violent, compounded by shame, stigma, and lack of support. Cultural isolation and language barriers often trap victims in abusive situations, making escape nearly impossible. Yet for those who do leave, the aftermath brings unexpected liberation—a hard-won sense of self-respect and wisdom from surviving a painful chapter.
