Honestly, every one who leaves an abusive situation looks over their shoulder like that. A generalization maybe, but overall true.

If he was so determined to raise his children with his culture and traditions, why leave Pakistan? Because a teenager is a teenager, no matter where they are, and they will absorb and want what they're exposed to and what their friends have and get to do.

As a tolerant western nation Canada should be more sensitive to other cultures beliefs. To not let this man "honor kill" his daughter is a gross attack against his religious.........

I'm appalled and disgusted. That is not what morals and protecting your children is all about.
