Have a bad feeling...

Quote From: housewife52

As far as marrying, I don't think they are legally married to any but the first wife. And I agree, you cannot marry a 13 year old anyway. Another thing, why is it that only the wives are going to court trying to get thier children back? Where are the men in this? Are the children considered illegitimate who are born to the 2nd, 3rd and so on wives? I hope the girl who called for help is safe also.

 

I don't know.  The girl "Sarah" who reported the abuse was never identified, I have a feeling they'll find her buried somewhere (I know, I'm sort of a pessimist here).  The fact that the other children aren't saying anything other than they "know" her and the fact that she reported abuse and rape, makes me think that she was trying to get out, like similar abuse victims and that's when she was killed.  By her husband or by the community, no one knows.  To me, this is just communal abuse, the men abuse their wives and the brainwashed women abuse themselves by allowing it to continue and adding to the psychological abuse of other women.
