Dowry problems faced by women

India
September 18, 2017 12:14am CST
When a woman is married to a person,parents believe that they have given their daughter to safe hands.But in some cases the in-laws of parents become so greedy for dowry. They compare it with others,and torture their daughter -in -law very much.Many dowry deaths have taken place.This is really a shameful thing. What should be done to stop this ?

well according to chinese custom, dowry is agreed before marriage, after the parents of the girl side had taken, no more arguments. The case is settle. Maybe India culture is different

i think kids be it boy or girl should be sensitised about this issue since childhood on how dowry is bad and is crime as per indian constitution this would not only empower our kids in knowing the ill effects of such dowry on family but also help them fight against this cruel practice if they see such thing happening around them and also in family .....also teach our girls to be brave and not not be scared of such in laws and know her rights as a woman and wife given to her by our constitution irrespective of which religion she belongs to

Depends with culture.In my country its the girls side that receive dowry.Its not seen as a way of punishment really but its just custom.As long as the parents don't ask much there's nothing wrong really
