Why didn't Judith's sister.....



....leave with her the second time? Why would she want to stay and become pregnant every 20 minutes? She'd likely never see her sister or her nieces/nephews ever again!
Was she scared?

If she had left she would never see her children again.

Couldn't she have done what Judith had done? Left in the night with her kids?

She was basically being held prisoner there too, and why would she lose her kids anyhow?
She's not even legally married to her husband most likely; she could fight him in court.

Didn't they refer to her as "senior wife" in the wedding scene? I think the first marriages are legal, the ones after aren't.
