Will you allow your child?

i know im not a parent and shouldnt butt in but its interesting you say that--

in life1 (and real life im sure) we hear countless stories of how parent will not accept the child's choice of life partner, for reasons that migth seem silly to us. one of two things has happened, either hte parents never said anything that would lead the child to believe that they cant marry someone of their choice or from a particular background , in which case tey are totally wrong for not setting the "ground rules" OR the child knew from the beginning but still went ahead and did what htey wanted and when push came to shove..they lost. I think both are equally likely to occur. There are parents that make it clear from the start, that they will not accept a child-in-law of a different backgrond/ethnicity/religion etc, and the child wont cross that boundary.
