Actually the purpose of this question is to get general filling of the attitude of the family and the wife. I understand that the help with in the family is required. But how demanding can be the family, is there huge pressure on the groom regarding problems in the family? Also whats the attitude of the wife? Does the wife puts her husband and her kids on the first place? Can she draw a line when she thinks that her duty to help is done? Because I really want to keep the family out of problems and pressures. But I dont mind helping and honoring the duty that my wife might have towards her family.

Every one is different but in my experience her family always came first, annoyed me enough to end the marriage (along with other reasons).kocdim wrote:Actually the purpose of this question is to get general filling of the attitude of the family and the wife.

I never paid a cent for the “honor” of marrying her but I did support her mother, while she was alive, with a small monthly income.
Everyone I know has had different experiences and had different ways of dealing with this. The best is to talk to the Mrs and lay out what you will and will not find acceptable before getting married. If you can’t find a mutual agreement / arrangement seriously think if this is someone you want to spend the rest of you life with. The problems won’t go away and she may even resent you for not helping her family which will never mean a healthy marriage.

Depends on your mum inlaw. We had a few incidents. Mum inlaw was too embarrassed to say her daughter and or barang wouldn't do it, so she was lending people her own moneyepidemiks wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 6:10 pmDoes this actually happen to people?

Thanks. This helps. I know every person is different. But it always helps to get some info from other people.kiwiincambodia wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 6:54 pmEvery one is different but in my experience her family always came first, annoyed me enough to end the marriage (along with other reasons).kocdim wrote:Actually the purpose of this question is to get general filling of the attitude of the family and the wife.

Re: luy tuk doh /groom dowry /sin sod
It's called a 'bride price' in English.
The word 'dowry' only refers to a payment made to the groom's family.

Re: luy tuk doh /groom dowry /sin sod
you also need to consider your legal obligations to the family in case of divorce, especially if you have relatives living with you
