[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] No, it's unnecessary and ridiculous. My husband comes from a conservative Asian family, as does my father (not the same one!), and they did talk. But it was totally a "check the box" kind of thing. My father expected the gesture, my future husband knew it, so went through the motions. My husband and I expect that our children will announce they are getting married to someone, instead of they or their fiance asking for permission. Seems like and important thing to be decisive about, no? :-) [/quote] And to answer your other question, I think my husband explained that we got along very well, were in the same field, had the same financial and parenting goals, and that he had the means to support me. That last was all my father wanted to hear. Sigh. [/quote]
