Correct Answer: marry


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation: The sentence discusses child marriage and the age at which a child can legally engage in various activities.

The phrase "the kid must be at least 18 years old" implies a condition related to age. While the word "mature" could be suitable, in the context of child marriage, the emphasis is on the age requirement for marriage itself. Therefore, marry is more directly related to the concept of child marriage and fits the context.
