[quote=Anonymous]I think it's wise to consider culture when joining families. I would never forbid my child from marrying whomever they wish. But I do hope they learn that your partners background, faith, ethnicity, etc will impact your relationship. If my child were dating someone from a very different background I would want them to fully understand what that means and what the expectations of them would be. I do not believe love is enough. Happy marriages are based on shared values and daily actions. It's naive to pretend otherwise. The families who "dont allow" certain relationship are doing you a kindness by making their expectations very clear. If those aren't also your expectations, its a losing battle and you might want to walk away.[/quote]
