I felt really bad when I read that the house she had grown up in and spent most of her life living in had burnt down. My reaction when my house burnt down however was much different from hers. I was devastated by it. She just seemed to accept it and move on.
I feel really bad that her and her husband had to live so far away from each other for like three months. I know she wants to stay in America to be with her family and her children but I don't get why she just don't move her family over seas so she can live with her husband and teach more at the beauty school? I also don't see why she does not tell her family that she got remarried. I think that is something pretty important and her family deserves to know. I also wonder if her mother knows or not that there is something going on with her and her new husband or not. They never really say. I so know that she has heard their phone conversations and is kinda curious. I kinda feel bad that Miss Debbie has to deal with the fact he has another wife because of an arranged marriage. I mean I know she knows that he don't love her and it wasn't his choice but to me that would still be hard to live with.
I really can't stand the way men treat women over there. Some of them just treat them like a piece of meat and women aren't. Its also said that these men are supposed to have the most respect for women and they do until they marry one then some of them are just awful and I think thats wrong that they should keep the respect for women.
I would have reacted the same way Miss Debbie would have if they would have told me they weren't letting me back into the school and I could not even get all the donated supplies out. I don't see why the womens ministry won't let Miss Debbie teach I mean all she is doing is trying to help all these women so they can make and income and support their own families. I don't see at all how that is a disgrace to their culture.

Not letting Miss Debbie back into school is a way for those guys to flex their power over her. Even the women's ministry is run by men, so what can anybody hope will come of that?
I think Divorce is a major no-no in Islamic beliefs, so maybe that is why she can't bring herself to admit it to the family?
Just a guess.
Great comments, lengthy ones too. :-) Awesome.
