Why must we hurt them?
Article Abstract:
It has become very unfashionable in some circles in the UK to support family values. It is now time to recognize that this view is misguided and to acknowledge that a belief in freedom and equality does not give adults the right to cause serious emotional damage to their children through the break-up of family life. If the rights of children are taken seriously, then it is inevitable that personal freedom and some adult rights are reduced. Adults must accept this as an element of adulthood.

The beauty secrets of Asian women
Article Abstract:
Mixed views have been expressed about the impact of the burqa on Muslim women's self-image. Some observers feel that the burqa frees the women who wear it from concerns about their appearance, making them happy just to be attractive to their husband. Others argue that the burqa does not prevent women having great interest in their appearance.
