[quote=WANHU,550177]Bride price is a Chinese tradition, the higher the better because many would think that money decides well-being and happiness. Thus youngsters today, with their meagre income can't afford for a high bride price thus his parents, usually, will "foot the bill", in order to save face. Parents have spent so much to upbring their children including their education, and yet for their marriage and household, those old people still need to sacrifice for the "happiness" of their children? Even the tradition of having a house before marriage is taxing on the lives of the young graduates simply because they can't afford. May be I am lucky that I do not have that kind of tradition nto follow, and indeed let my son find his own way should he find a mainland Chinese to marry. Wan[/quote]
