Missmossy:
I really can't imagine settling down with a partner detested by my folks. If i try all i can to convince them and its all to no avail,i'd look forward and let their decision stand because they know better than i do.

Its gonna be a tough choice though,but what will be will be.

Small boys talk. If you think it is the best decision for you in life you cant wait entirely for flimsy reasons from parents because whichever decision you take whether from parent or yourself, you are the one to live with it.

My friend dumped his girlfriend for no reason but because of parents advise about her tribe, today he regrets that decision and cant get her back as she has moved on, she meant so much to him and not his parent, one of the parent has passed on and he caters for the other and they dont know the emotional turmoil he is facing for swallowing their advise and insistence.
Its your life to live, after-all you never chose your mother for your father.

Any man who decides that it is the scrotum of a ram that he wants to eat should know that he is indebted to elephantiasis of the scrotum (Igbo proverb)

na lie! they are not always right bro, and the bible did not ask you to obey your parents even when itz obvious they are giving u a lift to hell.


hope u get ma point.
Thank u bro. It says "obey your parents IN THE LORD"...Not even when intention is devlish. So if their parents ask them to kill or steal they will go ahead

DebateNigeria:

People always quote bible to serve their purpose.
The book of Ephisians 6:1-4 is clear. I will higlight some points people miss out.
Vs 1- children obey your parents IN THE LORD. people always miss that point. The bible does not preach tribal hatred or otherwise. If its in the Lord I will obey.
Vs 4- And, ye fathers PROVOKE NOT YOUR CHILDREN TO WRATH, but bring them up in d nurture and admonition of the Lord. If you train your child well in d ways of christ, be sure he will make good decision.

Now my contribution. .... parental blessing is important but it depends on some factors.
1. Are their reasons genuine and palpable, if yes, pls don't go ahead, u will regret later.
2. Is their reason selfish, due to tribe, social class or otherwise, please go ahead...things will settle later.

There are no hard and fast rule. You will be in that marriage, not your parents. The ultimate choice is in your hands. On the judgement day, your parents will not be there to stand for you, its all man for himself.
There are failed marriages approved by both parents, there are failed marriages not approved by parents, there are successful marriages approved by parents and successful marriages not approved by parents. The biggest factor is the man and woman.
Goodluck
1000LIKES for u bro.


most of these disapprovals by our parents is prompted by tribal diff or social class(sentiments are not left out).


tell an Anambrarian parent(s) that u want to marry an Imo lady and watch their reaction.

BROS, PLEASE WHEN QUOTING, QUOTE RIGHT. WHAT THAT VERSE QUOTES IS BELOW. THERE WAS NO MENTION OF GOOD WIFE, IT SAYS WHOEVER FINDS A WIFE, FINDS A GOOD THING.

FYI: Pro_18:22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.
Thanks for the correction.

I like this. But how do you know when the parents are not judging based on their tribal or personal differences.
That is where the beauty of healthy dialogue comes in. Anyone can be convinced, depending how you present it, I may be wrong though.

Be careful! It is important that one thoroughly look into the reason(s) given by one's parents in a situation like this.
As the saying goes, "what an elder sees while sitting, a child MAY not see it even while on the tallest of trees".
Moreover, they are still the ones we would run to when there is an oil spillage in our marriages.

Parents always mean well for their children as they bring their child up in their best capacity with their available resources. Ignoring them when taking a life partner would not be in the best interest of the individual.

LESSON TO ALL YOUNGSTERS ESPECIALLY CHRISTIANS

[b]There are reasons why your parents could detest a person you brought to them because they know better than you whether you believe it or not.
They love you that is why they trained you in the midst of hardship, no girlfriend or girlfriend would do that for you.
They may love or hate a person you are bringing to them probably because they know the antecedents of the clan that the person in question comes from. So they would be warning you whether you want to hear it or not.
It could be people that go into prostitution after marriage or people that add poison to their spouses food after they gather the documents to your hard earned properties.
You may ignore them but your life would become an interpretation of misery at the end.
Such evil people are using internet and TV as well as radio stations to destroy core values of prosperous societies so that they will stop the youths from listening to their parents.
Anything that has to do with marriage must to a larger extent be better for it if you listen to elders especially your parents.
Not all that glitters is gold. Check the antecedents of that woman with lipstick-coated-mouth(deceptive looks) you want to marry before you are bedridden of stroke. Look before you leap.[/b]

Are you saying his family is right by not wanting him to marry her or is it true that Benin girls rarely make good wives/daughter-in-laws? But on the contrary, this girl is of good attitude and we'll polished even from a royal and wealthy family. My friend isn't financially bad as well.

Hello Dear friend. I think you need to ask them why they do not like or accept your friend. Hear them out but take time to ask God first. If at the end of everything,you see that your parents are not in agreement because of selfish or tribal reasons, then try to appeal to them but be firm concerning your choice if you are fully convinced that you are taking the right step.

I wish you the very best. smiley
