An eight year old Yemeni girl, forced by her father into an arranged marriage when she was in the second grade, has been granted a divorce. FoxNews:Thameur told a judge that he married Nojud with her consent and her parents', and that the marriage "was consummated, but I did not beat her." He did not object to the divorce petition.Such enlightenment.
Thankfully she has other relatives who will take her in, as she doesn't wish to go back to live with her parents. And she just wants to go back to school.
