Exactly.

This is a real problem, and one that is extremely complex because fixing it involves meddling with human rights, I don't think that this is a solvable problem. The bigger issue in cases like those is that 'Gods will' is invoked but it invariably affects others (mostly children) than the people that are making the decisions.
