Some mothers showed their happiness while kissing the child. Meanwhile, the child just stayed silent and bowed down. There was no expression on the little girl's face. However, it is unknown when exactly the engagement event was held. The face of the man who became the little girl's fiancé is also not visible in the video.

"The caption of the video states, 'A 12-year-old child engaged to a 27-year-old widower with one child.' This post immediately garnered various comments from netizens. Many highlighted the confused and anxious expression on the little girl's face."

Engagement of underage children is not the first time it has happened in Madura. A similar case also occurred in April 2024. In the circulating video, a pair of elementary school students can be seen holding an engagement ceremony. The girl child is seen wearing a green Muslim dress complete with makeup.
