This is how Thea has introduced her upcoming journey and major life event of soon being a child bride in Norway. Using this blog she will tell her story and express how she believes her experience of marriage will be.

西娅用这句话介绍自己，向公众介绍自己即将成为挪威的儿童新娘，经历这一人生大事，展开人生新旅程。

Thea’s wedding blog has become Norway’s most read blog during the course of one day. It instantly provoked reactions where people immediately contacted the police and child welfare in order to stop the upcoming wedding.

仅在一天之内，西娅的婚礼博客就成为了挪威最热门的博客。它立刻及其了人们的强烈反响，有人立刻联系了警方和儿童福利机构，希望能够阻止这场即将到来的婚礼。

Thousands of people debated the subject on social media as well. The aim is to engage the population to take immediate action and stop the wedding before Thea has planned to tell Geir “I do”.

同时，还有成千上万的人在社交网络上就此事争论不休。人们想方设法呼吁群众，想采取紧急措施，以便在西娅对盖尔说出“我愿意”之前阻止这场婚礼。

The shocking blog is leading up to the fictional couple’s wedding date, October 11, which coincides with the UN’s International Day of the Girl Child.

39,000 girls are robbed of their childhood every day.

每天都有3万9千名女孩被剥夺了她们的童年。

We believe that provocation is a powerful tool in order to demonstrate a reality that truly is very provoking. We hope people will mobilize against child marriage by being girl sponsors, so that most of the 39,000 girls facing Thea’s situation every day can escape their brutal fate.

我们相信这场抗议将成为有力的武器，揭示出令人扼腕抗争的真相。我们希望人们资助这些女孩，参与抵制儿童婚姻的活动，这样以来，每天那些和西娅面临着同样处境的3万9千名儿童就能逃脱她们悲惨的命运了。
