I think the daughter, who at 20 is an adult and entitled to her own decisions, should take priority over whatever he thinks and considering she was screaming for help it's safe to assume she didn't agree with what her father was doing... |
But even if she was a young child, the culture of the father can never superscede the law of the country they live in. If a culture is deemed to be abusive of children of any age, the social authorities or even police must react. It is not a matter of thinking that my own opinion is above someone elses: it is a matter of what rules we have set up in our society and that we as part of that society sign up to those rules. If we want to change the rules, than we act politically to do so. This guy in question should be charged with murder since he obviously prevented people from helpng his drowning daughter.
