I hope the girl forgives them ..Hopefully when they have served about 50 years in prison and have endured beatings like she got.

I agree with Granny. and the sad thing is it happens in this country to and it could even be happening to someone down the road from you but you would never think it!

The real point, I think, is that she was not just a child, she was female, and in fundamentalist Islamic regimes females don't count. They are treated like animals because that is how they are regarded. And this is the system the fundamentalists want to impose on the rest of the world?

Sadly her story won't be unique.

There are children all over the world who are virtual slaves. What's even more shocking is when it happens in this country. When children slip through the net, and are treated little worse than animals, as has been highlighted by a few cases in the last few years.

Childhood should be a time of innocence, and it's heartbreaking when that isn't the case.:(
