45. The way I see things...
you are correct, the law would seldom be needed and the use of it would be rare. But this would make it a bad law?

Not being sarcastic or wiseacre here but the laws against cannibalism are rarely needed, most people happily comply. Thank goodness.

And your point about the law affecting the weakest and most vulnerable is very well taken.

A small group could be injured by the law with uncaring judges, as an equally small group could benefit when there was no reason to fear their parents. (According to the way I see the groupings of these young women.)

I can't make a perfect law, but I think this will do more good than harm.
