Abstract

The practice of early marriage has been banned in international agreements because of the many negative impacts in terms of health, economy and psychology for mothers and children. But the practice of early marriage was still going on with different patterns between one region and another. The focus in this paper is to explain the marriage patterns of girls who are still in school. This phenomenological research rests on the perspective of the phenomenological theory of Alfred Schutz as a knife of analysis. Data was collected by participatory observation and in-depth interviews. This study shows that the practice of early marriage in the village of Randukerto was first carried out with the Sirri marriage contract. As for the couple's relationship after the marriage contract Sirri is not entirely like a husband and wife, girls can still go to school, they live separately with their husbands, and do not have to do the duties of a wife like taking care of her husband and home. Only after they have held a wedding reception, the girl must do her duties to take care of her husband and home
