Arranged Marriages

By Ian Spence


It can be one of the proudest days as a parent and the biggest step forward into a bright and promising future for an individual after years of hard work and graft. No more exams or essays to complete at tedious hours of the night. The launch pad from education into the workplace. Graduation is the end of a University course where a student has achieved their goals and completed their education in a chosen subject, giving them the foundation to move forward into the world of work.

The idea of a wedding is simple. A couple who share a deep and longing bond of passion for each other want to put the signature on their partnership by becoming man and wife and dedicating the rest of their lives to each other. However, not all marriages - wedding gifts and all - are meant to be.

Friends and family have the right to be proud of their loved one and can often show that pleasure with graduation gifts. It doesn't matter if graduation gifts are big or small, the appreciation of an individual's success will leave the graduate indebted that their progress has been recognised by the ones who are closest to them.

Often, graduation gifts can be personalised, leaving that unique touch to a present that will be treasured for many years to come. As previously indicated, a gift doesn't need to be excessive or expensive to leave an impression on the individual.

The pressure of being coerced into marriage usually comes from parents who would like to uphold their family's reputation and state of wealth. Parents who would like their children to marry someone in their ethnic, cultural or religious group is also another reason for being forced into an unnatural bond.

Often, the victims will go along will the proposed marriage as they are hesitant of letting their family down - burdened by emotional blackmail - with some even seeing it as part of their culture to marry what can sometimes be a complete stranger. Cameron's initiative is surely a move in the right direction but any potential proposal is unlikely to be tendered before parliament until after the turn of the year.
