Saying they were powerless to stop the marriage, Windy Hager's parents signed the required consent form so their 16-year old daughter could marry her 40-year old high school track coach, Brenton Wuchae. Married on June 25, 2007 in North Carolina, the relationship started when Wendy was 14 and a freshman in high school.
Although the comments on the GMA report of the marriage range from anger, outrage, and disgust to sympathy and understanding, a large majority of people who voted in the ABC Poll thought that the authorities should have prevented the May-December marriage.
ABC News: "With most teenagers, they're not sure yet who's who and what's what and what should be done," said Henry Paul, author of the book Is My Teenager OK? "It's obviously up to the adult figure to set the boundaries."
