Israel raised the minimum marriage age to 18

I have not digested this yet. I understand it will affect Haredi's most if not exclusively....

Do I want my children married at 18? No
Is a minimum age needed? Not sure.

Will not really impact me or anyone I know...but this was not done about us...
It is done to prevent arranged marriages......
Perhaps it is a good thing?
Maybe it should be 16?
Maybe not?

I don't know, I hate legislating against Jewish traditions in the Land of Israel....
