You sounds like a boy! Is she not your daughter when she drops your name for his?

ImaIma1:


If the father in law has to point that out, the couple should not even be getting married.

No the mother needs to get permission from the wife..."my dear I want to give my son a car as a wedding gift,should i go ahead?"

Every gift for a new couple should be for the couple, It doesn't matter where it is coming from... Many people married from rich families and car gifts or big gifts is not new ,When you go to marriage ceremonies you should observe it always that any gift is for the couple.. most people,I repeat most people insults their husband/wife later in the marriage because of such gifts and that is why it is good to tag the couple.

You lost me with your comment. Why is it that the fact that it is a car gift the problem. My colleague was given a car gift by her dad. And it was a surprise. They didn't know till the wedding day. An uncle of mine gave his daughter a car gift on her wedding day. Both marriages are yet to break up. If a man cannot handle the fact that his woman is from a well to do family, why go ahead?
Communication between a couple is very important. They have to be able to discuss anything and agree.

dangotesmummy:
it's just a godamn gift for goodness sakes .must you read meaning to everything for goodness sakes?

Why everything be quarrel. Like the world must revolve around your ego

You are barking up the wrong tree

Let's clarify this
1. If the gifts were for the daughter then there is a problem. He could have done this before she got married
2. Since when do you give one party gifts at a wedding is it not meant for both of them?
3. Maybe the daughter is one of those women who makes the man know she comes from money, they argue " get out of my house" she is unhappy " get out of my car!" So the man left. It's not just about the car or the house as it was 6 months after the wedding. It is about what the car represents.

olaife80:
The gift should be for the couple and not for his daughter. The FIL can only do that when his daughter is not yet married. This is not about Ego or the husband can't afford it, this is about the FIL respecting the new family. When there is misunderstanding the lady would be high on it. To me such lady won't be submissive but a mature Man should know to handle such not by breaking up.

why on earth would I need my son-in-law's consent to get my daughter a damn car?

Jsaviour:
Nigerian mentality sucks like hell. Even God that invented the marriage will look at you like "what the hell are these people saying". Take permission to give a daughter a gift. He should also take permission to include her in his will. Yeye dey smell. Who did this to Nigerians?.

Hannysmilez:
Wawuuuu!!! Ordinary car and Nigerian men already are threatened. Wonder what they'd do if she buys a jet

dangotesmummy:
dude learn to comprehend

eyinjuege:
I wonder what people would say if it was the groom's father that's wealthy and gifted his son a car and a house.
Would the wife's permission be also needed to accept the gift from his father?
That's the highest height of insult as a father if your child rejects your gift because the spouse said so. People seem to forget that, that man or woman has a source and didn't just fall from the sky into your life.

PaperLace:

If you like, present it to the couple and their ancestors, the party that wants to insult the other will do so_ as long as he/she knows the money came from the parents purse.

Presenting it to both is just protocol and they know it, what will be will be, if they don't handle it well. If it were mortar and pestle, will you be overly concerned who it is presented to?

One word? Inferiority complex fuelled by ego.

If u go and read from my first response, you would see that I am not a dude and that I do not see anything wrong in the car gift
