Do you think that the best way to help them is give them baby supplies or do you feel like these girls could be helped before the fact and aid them with contraceptive methods? I think that this topic is hard to deal with because of…Read More

This is so sad. I think it is interesting how this group values the polygamy practice for older men, rather than investing in their future.
