Girls: Do you want to have children?
Me: Yes, would love to, but need to find a man and then get married and after that I will want children
[spoke a little more about that..]
Girls: Have you thought about how your man will beat you every day?
What have these girls seen to ask such a question?
What goes on in their families for this to be so common?
What is their idea, their expectations of marriage or relationships?
What is their concept of love or loving other people?
What do they think their future will be like?
What do they consider acceptable and just a 'given' to happen to them?
On the surface this conversation could seem completely harmless and jokey....but actually this is so sad, heart breaking - what have these girls gone through to even ask such a question....
What's the response to their question?
