Common Issues in Mixed Marriages
It always makes sense to find out as much as possible about your partner카지노 게임 컬렉션s family but it makes special sense to do so in mixed marriages 카지노 게임 컬렉션 especially concerning the culture and its traditional family structures.
카지노 게임 컬렉션In Canada, the extended family isn카지노 게임 컬렉션t all that significant,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Liz 카지노 게임 컬렉션 who카지노 게임 컬렉션s married to an Indian guy 카지노 게임 컬렉션 explains. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I mean, I see some of my family members maybe once a year, if that. Here in Jaipur, family is more important. My husband카지노 게임 컬렉션s parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and their in-laws are a fairly tight-knit bunch. Sometimes, I find this rather exhausting.카지노 게임 컬렉션
However, Liz was able to see the positive side of her mixed marriage as well. She became close friends with Rajesh카지노 게임 컬렉션s cousin Sumita (30), who helps her navigate a foreign culture and has become far more than a replacement for the friends Liz left behind in Ontario.
Marriage and Religion
Partners in mixed marriages may be supportive of each other카지노 게임 컬렉션s religious beliefs but still often run into unexpected issues. Differences in the way people in these marriages celebrate certain holidays or have dietary restrictions are to be expected. However, other problems may arise, which have a much bigger impact on the partners in mixed marriages.
Hans (42) always had a hard time understanding people with strong religious views. However, his personal situation became even more complex when he met his future wife.
카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션m a German expat who was sort of raised as a Lutheran-Protestant, but I became an atheist in my teens. Ruba카지노 게임 컬렉션s from Amman, in Jordan, and a practicing Muslim,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Hans says.
카지노 게임 컬렉션We often clash over specific issues, like food. It drives me crazy that she doesn카지노 게임 컬렉션t even let me cook pork. I think our arguments have gotten worse since the birth of our daughter. We weren카지노 게임 컬렉션t sure how to raise our kid. Whose traditions do we pass on?카지노 게임 컬렉션
Parenting in Mixed Marriages
Mixed marriages often face additional struggles and challenges in the field of parenting. Raising a child always leads to conflicts if the parents are not on the same page. For parents in mixed marriages, like Hans and his wife, these conflicts often multiply.
카지노 게임 컬렉션My friends here do not struggle as much as we do. But then again, they don카지노 게임 컬렉션t have to synchronize two different sets of cultural and religious backgrounds,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Hans concedes. The involvement of extended family members in the child-rearing process, behavioral expectations, and the question of what is considered appropriate frequently cause heated discussions between Hans and Ruba.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Interestingly enough, we have always found a compromise so far. Despite our different outlooks, it helps us to know that we both want the best for our child. It카지노 게임 컬렉션s not easy, but we have some common ground in that. For example, I agreed that Eman should be raised as a Muslim because her faith is very important to my wife. But I didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t want her grandparents to have too much of a say. For me, child-rearing is the parents카지노 게임 컬렉션 responsibility 카지노 게임 컬렉션 and only theirs.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Your Partner카지노 게임 컬렉션s Personality
As in any relationship or marriage, both partners have to be flexible and open-minded when facing unexpected arguments and issues. 카지노 게임 컬렉션In mixed marriages, arguments may come up more often because of the different cultural backgrounds,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Ruba says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션It카지노 게임 컬렉션s just a lot more challenging.카지노 게임 컬렉션
For instance, one partner카지노 게임 컬렉션s prevalent social attitudes and common prejudices may begin to show more openly one day. 카지노 게임 컬렉션When this happens, all you can do is to maintain a good-natured attitude and have lots of patience,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Hans adds.
