You are so wrong……………….
What mommy wants, mommy gets. Mommy made the contact with the shadchan.
We have never pressured our children to marry early. We prefer they finish college and professional school first. Our daughter who married this past April finished law school in December, took and passed the February Bar exam and married before Pesach.
After Pesach, Mrs. CTL had life threatening medical issues. She spent 23 days on life support in ICU and has had 10 surgeries since. Her entire attitude about seeing our youngest married soon has changed. Our youngest has agreed to enter the shidduch process because she wants to marry while Mrs. CTL is well enough to take part in planning and the simcha.
Daddy has stayed out of this decision…all he’ll do is write the checks and be supportive of daughter’s decision.
Personally, I’d rather she marry an American, she’s 6th generation and I rather not see her consider moving down under.
