1. What you're interested in researching and why?
I'm interesting in researching and learning about the women in Afghanistan and the horrors that they are faced to deal with in their marriages. These women are married off at such young ages and are forced to serve their husbands and the husbands family while enduring abuse from them. Even though the marriages are cultural should they still continue to do them since they cause the women to be placed in a physical dangerous state? They are afraid to ask for help and tell the flaws in their marriages because they do not want to humiliate themselves or their families.

3. Are these marriages based off of their religion as well as their culture?
Why is the government not getting involved in these homicides and the drastic increase in suicides?
