NOURNEWS- The murder of Romina was so devastating, but even more devastating was that the killer was the girl's own father, the mainstay of a girl's life.
But Romina was the victim of her father's violence years ago, when she was not emotionally supported by her father, when she was deprived of the right to counsel, choose and interpose at home, and when she was not justified in making the wrong choice.
What really happens when a father thinks of revenge instead of listening closely to his daughter, instead of listening to her words and heartache? Why should he give himself this right?
To what extent is the idea of having the right to be a girl mixed with prejudice, bigotry and dignity? Does a father, as the guardian of a daughter, have the right to inflict any oppression on his daughter? Or does the exercise of this right mean more responsibility for the proper upbringing of the girl?
There are girls in this region who fall victim to the domestic violence of their parents with the same misconception. Girls who do not have the right to comment and choose, and if they do, they will face cold looks, insults and ridicule.
Isn't it time for the common misconceptions of father and daughter to be discarded, and for fathers to turn to a friendly relationship with their daughters instead of a violent, authoritarian, and oppressive one?
All psychologists believe that a girl's right relationship with her father will prevent the girl's moral deviations.
How is it that we see uneducated fathers who, in the name of honor and dignity, endure the mistake that everyone, even themselves, make, but it is an unforgivable tragedy if their daughter, who has certainly imitated this space, commits the same act?
To what extent are girls consulted at home? To what extent are they provided by the father in terms of emotion, love, and even material needs that do not shake their hearts in the face of the male sex?
It seems that the right role models for women or girls should be properly interpreted and taught, and with culture building, proper and appropriate management of the father in the matter of leading the family should be explained, so that the upbringing of girls does not face any more problems and any abuse of this right should be prevented.
In the age of modernity, and despite the destructive cyberspace, the relationship between fathers and daughters of this frontier must be taken more seriously.
Truly, what is the role of fathers as the first man in a girl's life in informing their daughters about men, making the right choices and marriage?
If a girl makes a mistake, where is the role of the father? Is the issue cleared up by threats, punishment, ridicule, or imprisonment and murder? We need to get to the bottom of this before it's too late.
