RE: SLC-S29/W4-“Thinking and Ideas!| Rethinking the Normal!”
It reminds me that our present President is a tribal lady who comes from the same atmosphere but it all depends on how a family guides its children.
Exactly!
Her family might have instilled values in her that makes her see her purpose beyond traditional female roles. The environment she grew up with and people she interacted with might have enlightened her mind as well.
That's the benefit of having a community of people who are open to good "not-so-conventional" ideas.
I understand that not everyone will share the same view. They'd be people who'd still want to hold on to age-long beliefs. It's not their fault. It's what they grew up believing that doing otherwise unsettles them. It's like a test of their morality.
But enlightenment helps change this. However, when it still meets resistance, stringent laws does the work so victims can seek legal remedies.
Enforcing child protection laws, making it compulsory to register every marriage. That way, underage marriages can be spotted easily.
There's a concept in law that says ubi jus, ibi remedium which means "where there is a right, there is a remedy." If this particular issue isn't prohibited and sanctioned, victims might not be able to turn to the law with their rights are infringed.
I think this should work in all parts of the world if adopted fully.
