That is a very real concern and one that many immigrant parents are not aware of.
Well I don't have teenage girls. But I see your point, they will be some day and I can only hope I can deal with it then! Lol
My girls are a spirited bunch that is for sure.
The Major Flaw in the Democratic system is the one we see today. When a Majority of people begin to essentially terrorize the Minority, who are in fact their neighbors.
Also remember the Stamp Act and The Intolerable Acts were all 100% legal and had been enforced by an elected parliament.
I know not everything was perfect in the '50s, hell I hear of Divorces in my family that took place in like 1955.
But now they have divided us dangerously, there is too much anger, too much hatred, too much loathing that has been building up for years now.
Thank You so much for your kind words about my Wife! G-d Bless You!
I don’t think many Muslim families would pay the cost of educating daughters in the US (it couldn’t have been cheap).
You bet it wasn't cheap!
I forget how much my FIL said it took to send Leena to come and study here in the Untied States from France, but you can bet it cost a pretty penny.
Turkish Girls are nice too. All of them are pretty damn smart too, very Intelligent.
But whatever you do, do NOT call Turks Arabs and Vice Versa. Its like "Are you Chinese or Japanese!?!" It can get ugly.

I know what you mean; many Americans ignorantly use “Arab” and “Muslim” interchangeably, while the largest Muslim country in the world isn’t Arab at all (Indonesia). The Turks used an Arabic-type script until Ataturk changed their alphabet in the 1920s (I have a few of the older coins - it is hard to find people to read them for me); now they use the German-type alphabet (with umlauts and such). Iranians (Persians) are another group lumped with Arabs (though they speak Farsi), and Pakistanis are as well (with Urdu).
Fascinating history; even the Arabs themselves reached the Atlantic Ocean when they swept across North Africa into Spain. The goofiest thing is the media referring to Egypt’s new president as a “pharaoh”; those kings ruled the native Egyptians before the Arab invasion (their descendants, from the Old Testament, are today’s Coptic Egyptians - who aren’t “Arab” at all).
