I've been reading comments left on some news articles about the FLDS hearings. I continue to be astonished by some of the comments. Here's a sampling...
- What if the FLDS refuse to give up polygamy like you want ?.. even though it is none of your #@$% business to begin with. What if the FLDS women refuse to sit around for FIVE years after puberty waiting until YOU give them permission to use THEIR uterus ?
- Where did you get the idea that the FLDS do "little girls?" I suppose you and I have a different definition of a "little girl." In my opinion, a "little girl" is a small child, not an adolescent. Lots of adolescents have sex in Texas. Some parents in Texas even let their teenaged daughters have sex with their boyfriends in their home. But those parents are not being persecuted like the FLDS.
- As for health benefits getting married at 14 also has its advantages FLDS women are healthy have ZERO incidence of venereal disease because of their strict life style. They don't go around fornicating and using abortions as a form of birth control either.
- I believe a parent should not have to be required to prove they are fit to be a parent to get their children back.
