Women and Children's Rights

Women's rights has never been fully accepted ni this world. That is why when we hear about it in other countries, its a difficult thing to be so completely shocked. I think we tend to shy away from these issues unfortunatley because it is so common. Even though it is not familiar in the United States, we hear about it alot in the Middle East and other places as well. But alot has been going no to change it. There are organizations, groups, active commitees and other programs that are helping to fight for women's rights. People are speakign up about it everyday and the more others are aware of it, the better. Specifically in other countries, we need to talk about it more and get poeple to notice that the way soem women ar ebeing treated is unacceptable. I also think children's rights need to be addressed the same way with women's rights. People need to understand that children may not be taken care of or being treated properly. The more other people can know about these issues the more voice and reason we can make out of it. There is really nothign mroe than can be done. If you tell your story, someone is bound to listen, and listen carefully.

I definitely agree with you, Nabila. Helping women and children starts with telling their stories, and making sure we address both.
