dc.description.abstractIn many African settings, the girl-child is discriminated against right from birth. This is because of the perception of many people that while a boy-child would foster the continuity of his family name, the girl-child would marry and go out to populate her husband’s family. From the early age, the girl child is allocated responsibilities within the family. Potential areas of abuse of the girl-child, include female circumcision, housemaids, rape, child prostitution, teenage pregnancy, and arranged marriages.en_US
