A high probability though.

There is nothing stopping muslim children contacting childline apart from fear of the parents finding out which is a problem i suppose in most households where abuse takes place
We still haven't got around to educating the 'abusers' only the victims.

True. the family honour thing is pathetic. they will kill their own flesh and blood because they're embarassed about what they've done?

who cares what the neighbours think?

There will be some people that will be offended by that. they will think let the Muslims do it. it's nothing to do with us. I say. don't be offended for them doing it. be offended that they do it.
