Honor killings.....
For those who don't know what I mean, here's a quite long article about it:
"The Whore Lived Like a German"
Summary: Muslim women that live in Germany, but try to break out of the traditional family background are for some only moving targets, since there male relatives could decide they deserve to die for things like having a boyfriend, or having even sex with him before marriage. Or for doing other things girls normally do.
And yes, I know it is a generalization, and fortunately it doesn't go like this for all of them - but this isn't the point here. Furthermore, I haven't made this thread to bash Turkey, or Muslims in general, or to discuss the Turkey-Eu thing once again. /pc stuff end
Here I'd like to discuss what in your opinion good measures would be to stop that. In another article about it, those suggestions are made:
As you'd expect from those Germans, there's a lot of restrictions and forbidding. 
But of course, most of this will hardly be done in praxis, and some of those other ideas might actually be useful..... I also vaguely remember reading about similar cases in other countries....anyway....thoughts, flames, ideas?

1. Requiring immigrants to take classes on human rights and women's rights beginning as early as grade school.
2. Strengthening the laws regarding women brought from Turkey and Muslim countries as young brides. For instance, say some, the women should be at least 18. And they should be forced to take language classes upon arrival.
3. Forbidding arranged marriages and including a means to prosecute parents who force their children to marry against their will.
4. Breaking up the Turkish-Muslim "ghettos."
5. Creating more programs for Turkish youths.
6. Creating a larger network for women in need.
7. Controlling what gets taught in Quran schools.
8. Aggressively campaigning against violence in Muslim families.
9. Creating job training programs and job opportunities for Turkish women.
