just be careful cause what an adult see sitting you cant see standing, well i dont support the fact they dont want ou to get married cause of your sister...just know yyour parents consent and blessing is very important....you also need to pray about it cause some men might later treat you like a nobody since he didnt do the needful like knowing your parents, having a mutual relationship with them, paying your bride price..

couldn't agree any less, however, there one one or two cases where parent act selfishly
