Parent to Parent conversations - What issues to focus on?
Families often face challenges as to what specific issues they can raise, when they first meet each other to
try and get their children married.
As the lives of parents and children get more complex, the questions that need to be focused on in the first
family meetings have gotten more difficult.
At Kedar, more and more parents have asked us to shed some light of the specific issues that should be
talked about between parents when the families of brides/ grooms first meet. Among many things that
can be spoken about, the following should certainly be brought into focus -
● Health related inquiries (family history of disease)
● Discussions regarding the future career plans of bride /groom
● An analysis of family values (Cultural and moral)
Clarification on the issues above is a supplement and not an alternative to the actual meeting of the bride
and groom. The three points mentioned have their own import, within the overall general discussions and
horoscopes matching that families in india do.
