Dnt rily knw if dis has bin discussed previously, bt a friend of mine (a guy) is passing tru dis parents partner refusal recently (reason: dat d gal does nt meet d educational standard of d family). What's ur opinion on dis? Advice him.

Chei, i feel for the guy sha. Bt if thats the family ur friend came from then he should be proud and oppressive too, he came from a family with pride and ego and im suprised he didnt pick dos trait.
People refuse to understand that wateva u have was given to u by God, y make d other person feel bad? Its jst like tellin someone u cant marry him/her bcs she is short, its appalling.

Anyway, if your parents say NO to my partner, dey need to convince you. Personally, i wont disobey my parents, bt dey have to convince me

Obviously his parents are very shallow minded, ie if her educational background is the only reason for their disapproval. If he really likes the girl he'll find a way to convince his parents. the truth is his parents would listen to him except his has shown them in the past that he cannot make good decisions.

190-the-clown:
That girl must be Nigerian

Dnt undastand. Nigerian how?

Just tell your friend to be patient, keep her away from his family's view (don't bring her to the house, family functions for now), and take it to God in prayers. Look, family can be annoying sometimes, but i have come to see that most times they are right without knowing it themselves. If after some time they don't calm down about your idea, then sit them down and tell them she'll go back to school even after the wedding. Good luck to your friend!!

He is suggested that he should convince his parents i. e. Only education can't be the determining factor for everybody. There are many other factors that should be considered also.

If I was in your friend's shoes I would try to convince my parents and show them the finer qualities she has to offer but at the end of the day I'm a grown AZZ man and I make my own decisions.

But why do some parents make it their life's work to seperate their children from ppl they love.
God give me wisdom not to be that kind of mother.

That ur friend's parents must have seen something in her,dat they dont want for him,thereby using education tinz to stopped him.
Tell ur friend to nicely with respect ask his Mom,the real reason behind such,and dat he refused to accept dat she was stopped based on edu status...
What d hell,he must by now understand his parents and how their minds work..If she i.e his mother say na d edu tinz b d real issue,only God can help Him and her oh...
