I guess u can't put a figure, it all depends on each child. Some kids become responsible and trustworthy earlier than others. To me as long and she/he show some sense of responsibility and does majority of right things.

OP, why does your question only focuses on female kids. A child is a child irrespective of gender. Male children tend to experiment with pornographic material, so why do u think they don't deserve an age restriction.
Your sexist approach is sickening and disgusting.

For the time being, they should remove Malasyian airlines on any category regardless of what was being measured in those categories, until they account for the missing aircraft and all its passengers.

cecidore: Bianca married Ojukwu and he was old enough to be her father all because of "love". the choice is yours whatever makes you happy, go for it.

I once read an article where the same Bianca said am a mother she would advice her daughter against it. .
I am just too lazy to look for the article

makes sense.

some responses are just cracking me up.

@ Misogynist2014, remember the government or the royal house controls everything closely including the media. The fact that no sexual cases are reported doe not mean they don't have.

The Royal house chooses what's best for public and international consumption.
A lot of not so good things go undocumented and unreported in Saudi. We only see the perfect facade.

Misogynist2014: It is telling you that regardless of being able to drive or not that as a man or woman,you will prefer to live in a country where education and a lot of things are free.Ability not to drive alone will help a lot to curb prostitution and sexual immorality.

Not true, that table you provided was refering the best countries to be born in not the best country where womans rights are respected.

One thing you are not aware of is that in Saudi though education is free for woman, woman do not participate in all spheres of the labour markert ( e.g. You can't see Saudi woman working in their Oil rigs), hence the country depend too much on foreign labour force. What does that tell you. Does that amount to freedom to choose when a woman can't choose a job as an Engineer in one of their Oil rigs??

Again you said woman don't wanna drive because they wanna reduce sexually immorality. That's what they have been brainwashed to believe that woman driving amounts to sexual immorality. I drive myself, does that mean I am sexually immoral, does my car make me sexually immoral??

Some even fear to go around alone because they fear sexual harrassment. Is that freedom, to fear being sexually objectified. Who harrases them, foreigners or their own moral man? They didn't start this woman should always walk around with a relative men only when forigners started living in their cointry, it was long before, that means their man had always been sexually objectifying them.

Misogynist2014: They are miles ahead of Nigeria

Ahead with regards to what? The table you provided explains nothing about woman rights

[quote author=tunshe][/quote]@ tunshe Please research for yourself. Human Rights Watch and some UN Report.

As for Lybia is better now that Khaddafi is gone, I think you are ignorant

tunshe: They have rights, see what they think. Please be a reader!

http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/nov/02/saudi-protest-driving-ban-not-popular

Remember in Saudi people don't have that freedom of expression as you have and some are brainwashed, so they will pretend like they support the laws even if they don't.

Same thing that happened in Lybia, Egypt etc, when the Khaddafis etc were still in power. Citizens were scared to oppose because of fear, being brainwashed and also being a beneficiary of the systems. When the fall of Khadaffis regime was getting closer, people started opening up.

So, I would take that little research with a pinch size. Saudi is known for human rights abuse, behind the banner of protecting their citizens and the holy land

tunshe: My dear, freedom was not mentioned in the OP.

Can you please read again?

Duuuuh The fact that they cannot choose whether they want to drive or not makes the country awful for woman.

Who is your source

OP, what you need to do is ask your self what you really want with regards to
1. YOU (
2. CHILDREN
3. Marriage

Then re-define your priorities in terms of their importance, and make a decision.

Your husband is at the height/peak of his ''LATE ADOLESCENCE'' there is nothing that you can say or do to him to make him listen, EXCEPT prayers which may take time. Your priority right now should be to be yourself and your kids and your health.

If I were you, I would
1. Pray, PRAY , PRAY
2. Seeing that he has physically started abusing you, he wont stop luv, he will still continue. I would move out and inform his family of my move THOUGH i don't mean divorce perhaps in SEPERATION terms.
3. If you cant move out, I would advice you to STOP NAGGING about counselling and yada, yada stuff to get his attention. Get a life by occupying yourself with your children and making yourself some money.
4. Give his "NEW GIRLFRIEND'' all of your husband, with a clear heart ( with this advice, you will write me a PM telling me what happened.
NOTHING BEATS A WOMAN WHO STEALS YOUR MAN THAN GIVING HER ALL OF HIM Sounds cray hey, but it works, she won't cope with half of what you coped with

Having dated a guy way older than myself, I would NOT advice any young girl to date a very senior guy. I worked for him after University and he gave me a headstart in life, BUT in hindsight, I feel my life could have turned out differently if I dated my age mate.

Yes I did not experience any abuse, but OLDER MAN come with an amount of challenges. Just to name a few:

1. He has lived his life way before you met him, so he has been there done that and knows it all. Which can be challenging when you are still young and have not experienced life.
2. He possibly has children from previous relationships ( Unless you have no problem being a step mom ).
3. Your developmental stages are likely not gonna be in sync. ( thereby experiencing boredom, being caged, decisions being made for you ( whether by choice or not) etc.
4. Less 'US TIME' especially when he is in business, as he is busy pursuing businesses and trying to bring stability to you ( imagine marrying someone like Dangote, he is a billionare but still pursuing his business interests and have less time
5. Older people automatically baby younger ones. So he is likely to baby you in a lot of ways that you will see and cant see.
TOO MANY TO MENTION

The advantages are
1. Financial security
2. Safer and calculated decisions being made for you through his constant financial advice etc.

Some argue that men in their 23 - 27 yrs are not matured and woman of the same age are more matured. Don't be fooled by woman who claim or appear to be matured at 23 -27yrs, yes some 23yr old woman sound very matured, only because they have learnt through observation through other peoples experiences and books and internet etc, but when you put them in the same situation, they would react totally opposite to their maturity You can only call them matured comparing to their age mates but that does not mean that they are matured to take challenges faced by a 30yr old woman.

All of these things you don't see them while you still dating or married, you will only see them later on in your life. Of cause you will defend it while you are dating an older man. Though I am not saying its wrong, BUT, I WOULD ADVICE ANY YOUNG GIRL AGAINST IT BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE

But TO EACH HIS OWN, as long as one can live with the consequences later on in life.

Saudi Arabia executes 4 drug traffickers by beheading

Posted about 3 hours ago | 0 comment
RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA (BNO NEWS) -- Four drug traffickers from Syria and Iran were decapitated by sword in northern and eastern Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, the government said, disregarding concerns raised by human rights organizations and raising the number of people executed over the last month to 30.

Three of the latest executions took place in the northern Al Jawf Region, while the fourth took place at an unspecified location in the kingdom's eastern region, according to four separate statements issued by the Saudi Interior Ministry. It warned that the government will continue to carry out harsh punishments against those who traffic drugs.

The men executed in the Al Jawf Region were all Syrian nationals, identified as Hamoud Fayez Hassoun, Hassan Taha Musalamani, and Youssef Abdullah al-Halqi. They were convicted of smuggling "a large quantity of banned amphetamine pills" and had confessed to their crimes before the courts sentenced them to death, the interior ministry said. It did not say whether the men were part of the same drug-trafficking ring.

The fourth execution took place in Saudi Arabia's eastern region, where Iranian national Raza Abbas Fadhil Aderisawi was beheaded by sword after the courts upheld his death sentence. The interior ministry said Aderisawi was convicted of smuggling "a large quantity of hashish" into the kingdom by sea, but provided no further details about his case.

"The Interior Ministry reminds the public that the Government of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques (King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud) - may Allah protect him - continues the fight against drugs of all kinds as it inflicts serious harm on the individual and society," the ministry said in its statement. "The most severe penalties on the perpetrators are derived from the righteous approach of Sharia law."

Tuesday's beheadings raise the number of people executed in Saudi Arabia since the beginning of August to 30, leading to condemnation from human rights organizations as many have been killed for non-lethal crimes. "Any execution is appalling, but executions for crimes such as drug smuggling or sorcery that result in no loss of life are particularly egregious," said Sarah Leah Whitson of Human Rights Watch.

Amnesty International also expressed its concern last month after four family members were executed on the same day for merely possessing hashish. "The recent increase in executions in Saudi Arabia is a deeply disturbing deterioration. The authorities must act immediately to halt this cruel practice," said Said Boumedouha of Amnesty International.

At least 45 people have been executed in Saudi Arabia so far this year, following 79 executions last year. The kingdom applies the death penalty for a large number of crimes, including drug offenses, apostasy, sorcery and witchcraft. Both witchcraft and sorcery are not defined as crimes in Saudi Arabia, but human rights organizations say such charges have been used to prosecute people for exercising their right to freedom of speech or religion.

Lack of patience
Lack of respect

Lack of openness ( when u are open, there will not be any suprises and character suprises )

Selfishness ( selflessness is very important because when you are considerate, you won't treat your partner the way you will not like to be treated)

Finances
Greed
Unreasonable expectations

Lack of proper communication ( people communicate on a daily basis but the question is, is the communication proper e.g. Is it encouraging, constructive,loving and not harsh etc. )
Competition among partners
Trying to change your partner ( you can't change a human being rather change comes from within )

Lack of gratitude ( Thank you, as it is encourages your partner and also pushes them to do more because you appreciate. Men thank your woman for even cooking a good meal. Absurd as it sounds, but it works ). Focus on encouraging the good things and the bad ones will change without too much effort.)

I feel your pain mama. God is your strength and he will see you through. As for the man, leave him to God, he will sort him out.

Just wondering what was a mango seed doing on her floor. What type of a kitchen is that??

It may have been destiny. Though it could have been avoided by tidiness.

OP, I always say time heals. And it will. Cry as many time as you can. But time is the best healer.

Raymondenyi: Madam; how u use dey Do ; the thing? Within a period of barely 10yrs; u don capture 2 complete husbands; when girls dey run around, dey visit different churches, dey fast 70 days n 70 9ts , de go 4 counselling up n sown; still no show....

honestly I didn't want to laugh. But you made me laugh

SirShymex: However, since minorities can never be the dominant race, and they lack the power to either rule, or be superior - there's absolutely no way they can be racist.

Topic:

- BIG NO!!

BIG LIE. Minorities can dominate. E.g. Jews in America through economy.

Didn't it happen in SA? What was Mandela fighting for??

Idowuogbo: Trust me, its stressful going natural. I tried the whole natural thing this year, bloody expensive.

I have been natural from 2003, honestly speaking, comparing to when I was not natural, I don't get woman when they say natural is expensive.
The only expensive part I felt is when I was starting my dreadlocks, but not my nappy hair.

Its somehow a big fat lie.

Its just that you have to visit the salon constantly to wash your hair. Which when you are not natural you don't wash your hair that often.

So somehow unnatural is unhygienic. A human being needs to wash their hair at least once a week. So I don't think we should celebrate lack of hygiene to justify why we go unnatural. Rather we use another excuse.

Though I am not saying people should go natural because I am natural

UNNATURAL HAIR IS UNHYGIENIC

lokito: Thanks Chi. Longest time

Hey lolo. I am keepin. Just tied up somedays how are u?

All of you going on about Patrick Sawyer being the worst devil, " ARE YOU SAYING PATRICK SAWYER INFECTED HIMSELF?"

Do you think a family man in his right mind went out of his way to get himself infected with EBOLA?

Please people use your brains and leave Patricks soul to rest.

As for the doctor, may her soul rest in peace as well

lokito: I don't have your time. I'm too mature for this. Enjoy

Don't mind this one, the way he talks indicates that he was born in a polygamous family. I don't think you can outdo polygamous folks,to them its like breathing its natural
