The eldest son is married and the rest of the sons work as day laborers like their father. Two of her daughters continue to live with her at her home. Zahra never finished school because she became ill. Later, she joined an association where she was able to gain skills managing livestock and chickens and earned income from that. She hopes that through her sales she will be able to build a bigger house for herself and her family.
