Parents should not force their children to do something so important that it would affect the rest of their lives. I wouldn't want my children to feel resentful towards me because I chose who to spend the rest of their lives with. If my daughter had been in an unhappy marriage, she might have chosen to alienate me from offering her any advice on making the relationship work because I was responsible for putting her in that situation. Therefore, further alienating me from his future life experiences. I believe my children should be able to choose who they want to be with, who they find attractive, and who they feel a connection with. Why should I as a parent bear the expenses of a wedding if there is a possibility that the wedding will not happen? While the occurrence of arranged marriages is common in other countries, I believe the idea of ​​arranged marriage will soon die out in America. Today's society is very straightforward and all about free will. There is a small percentage of women who would consent to this type of marriage, but most women today are more independent and less likely to enter into an arranged marriage.
