Abstract

Married By Accident (MBA) or sudden marriage often occurs in adolescents, in the age range of less than 20 years, which is still puberty. They must marry because they are pregnant first. This phenomenon raises various views by the community in terms of factors that cause MBA, the impact, and also preventive efforts that need to be done by parents and adolescents, which according to the community can avoid cases of MBA teenagers. This research uses a qualitative approach by focusing on in-depth interviews and analyzing the perspectives of the Pandanrejo community. The results concluded that the community's perception of teenagers involved in MBA varied, with some feeling sorry for them and others choosing to ignore them. The research findings reveal the factors that influence the occurrence of MBA, including the lack of sex education, family and environmental factors, as well as social media factors. In addition, this study also highlights preventive efforts to prevent the occurrence of MBA, including interpersonal communication between parents as an effort to shape morals in children, providing sex education, and disseminating positive information through social media.
