Ban arranged marriages here and parents sending their children overseas for it. Citizens need freedom to chose partner.

Created by S.B. on January 24, 2013

US Citizens from other countries such as India & Bangladesh are arranging marriages for their children either here or overseas. The children don't even have freedom to choose. Quite a few times, the married couple only meet each other within a few weeks before the wedding. Something needs to be done. One dad told me regarding his daughter marrying outside the culture, "He is not our culture & does not speak our language so he is not the right guy for her. I choose who she marries & don't care if she loved him." All of deserve freedom in everything including choosing our life partners. Time to ban arranged marriages!
