Introduction Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a common custom in some Asian, Middle Eastern, and Caucasian countries. FGM is cruel and, in most cases, unsanitary operation conducted at home without any participation by qualified medical workers and with no appropriate medications. The procedure includes the cutting of the clitoris and/or labia minora. According to the World Health Organization (2018), it may also involve such painful processes as infibulation, pricking, piercing, etc. Those who promote this ritual explain that the operation diminishes girls’ sexuality and prevents premature sexual relations. However, this practice should be abolished for several reasons. First, as has already been mentioned, the procedure is performed under inappropriate conditions. Second, it prevents females from experiencing sexual satisfaction during their mature years. Consequently, women suffer from depression and stress. Third, it causes serious health problems such as painful urination, vaginal malfunction, and childbirth complications (World Health Organization, 2018). Fourth, this issue is an ethical problem. FGM is certainly not chosen by the girl herself, but imposed on her by her parents and the local society. This is a burning issue for the whole world as people are free to migrate almost anywhere nowadays. Those who have always practiced FGM at home will continue doing so in the country they move to. To resist this tendency, social workers and nurses should develop strategies aimed at preventing this harmful ritual in families. It is important to note that there are two million girls every year under the threat of FGM (Yoder, Wang, & Johansen, 2013). The strategies below are directed toward eliminating the barriers that delay the eradication of FGM. They may help improve the situations of young girls who are endangered by this cruel tradition. Strategy One: General Knowledge It is quite doubtful that legal measures are enough to reduce the number of families practicing FGM. If people do not accept the principles that underlie law, they will resist it. That is why in the case of FGM, educational measures should be taken. There may be several steps that a nurse or a social worker should follow to give a family the basic knowledge that will prevent FGM. For our purposes, it is necessary to imagine a model family to whom the strategies will be applied. Let it be a family from a Middle Eastern country having more than three children, with the parents able to read and write, and the husband having some professional skills. They adhere to Muslim religious beliefs. The ritual of FGM is strictly followed inside their native local society. At first, it is necessary to give the parents basic information about human physiology. In many traditional cultures, this field of knowledge is openly or secretly tabooed due to religious reasons (barrier 1). More than that, according to Glover and Liebling (2018), most women in traditional eastern families are illiterate. This means that in their everyday life and personal philosophies, they are guided not by common sense or scientific reasons but by religious beliefs and prejudices. That is why even adults are sometimes unaware of certain aspects of hum
