durham It is true that muslem men may be marrying more than one women and the the women aren't allowed to do so. They have a lot of things that women aren't allowed that men are allowed. I have never understood this nor have any reasons of why.

durham Your concern are legit. You have to have rules and boundries for girls so that they will grow to be respected and to learn how to respect themselves. There is never an age limit to set certain guidleines for kids especially now day.

durham Having cancer does not give him the right to threaten or mistreat or even say anything bad about your child. How do you know that he actually will not carry out his threats? You should leave to protect your child who can not protect herself.
