That is why truancy laws must be enforced and immigrant women become educated about their legal rights and what support may be available to them.

"immigrant women become educated about their legal rights " Absolutely!
That is correct! Our responsibility to our guests is to share the rules with them. Their responsibility is to follow these rules or leave.
On an individual, person by person basis, these cultural-immigrant groups hold a powerful weapon over the heads of each group member. Ostracism and threats of violence are BOTH powerful means of enforcing compliance even then the practice being enforced is deemed illegal by the adopted society.
