Videos: A bad example for polygamy and a good one

This is an 8 to 9 minute video of what I think is a negative example for polygamy. This video is on people's reactions to arranged child brides in polygamy, which is one of those things that most in the general public tend to associate with poly lifestyles.


Video #2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OEaRn3u ... 8&index=38

This is a 7 to 8 minute video of what I think is a positive example for polygamy. It basically features a group of wives who are involved in polygamy, and they talk about their poly lifestyle.

Enjoy!

I posted these videos to show that although there may be problems of abuse in SOME polygamous practicing families, but that does not mean that ALL poly families have problems of abuse. In the same way, there are plenty reports of abuse (like domestic abuse, etc) in monogamous marriages, but that doesn't mean we should judge every single marriage based on the problems of a few nor does it mean that we should ban all monogamous marriages.

Feel free to share your reactions to these videos.
 
Here are more videos that I posted in another section but I think they'll also be good here:

I uploaded 5 videos to YouTube of Oprah's show on polygamy that was called, Polygamy in America: Lisa Ling Reports (Original air date 10-26-2007). I don't think I have the entire show, but I do believe I have most of it. Enjoy!


Edit: I uploaded this show on YouTube in 5 parts but I had to delete parts 2 thru 5 due to YouTube policy.
