I hope that she grows up and is able to fulfil her goal.

Manzoor's attack followed a row over doing the dishes.

"It was seven o'clock in the morning, and I had just finished making breakfast," she says.

"My daughter was crying so I picked her up, but her grandmother said: 'Leave her and wash the dishes.' I told her that I would wash them, and that we had the whole day ahead of us. After this, they started beating me. I was unconscious for four or five days. I woke up in hospital in Lahore."

Jeez...

This is disgusting. It's not even the heat of the moment, either. It's a calculated assault while she is sleeping, or after she's been beaten unconscious. I agree, the best punishment for the attackers is acid in the face.
