Yes, you are quite young but you understand it. While the
threadstarter does not. But to be more exact, it's not two
families, it's three. You forgot about the new family you gonna
start with your hubby?
I am about to get married and i am starting to feel the
pressure.
Your wedding dinner, where, when, how many tables for each side,
you will hear alot of request from both side parents.
Your new family, they will bother you about where you live, dont
want you to live too far, the girl's parents will want thier
daughter to live in a bigger house.
If you are the guy, the girl's parents will start to have many
expectation on you, they want their daughter to marry a guy who can
give her a good life.
For those more traditional families, once you get married, your
parents will start to hint, or even tell you directly that they
want to be grandpa/grandma.
They will start to tell you things like
"It's better to be pregnant young, the baby will be more
healthy"
"Sonner or later you still need to have kids"
"The earlier you have kids, the earlier they can support you in
future"
They come up with every possible reason to urge you to have
kids.
So, unless one or both of you are from a broken family, or your
parents dun care about you two at all, or else, it's there's
business too, they will be involved in many ways.
It can only be about two ppl when parents dun care at all.
Threadstarter, if you are already married and it's really about you
and your partner only, you dont have to care about the things i
mentioned, a big Congrats to you, you are very lucky that you start
your own family without the hassle of trying to satistfy the
parents.
