“Am totally opposed to dowry. This is a retrograde practice, and also illegal. Think about it can a relationship, built on foundation of money and greed, ever be meaningful or beautiful? Shouldnt we invest in our daughter's education instead of saving for her dowry? Make her accomplished and independent so she is capable of crafting her own future, and becomes the master of her own happiness. Then she won't need a greedy, useless groom to complete her life. Let her marry a person who respects her, whom she believes is worthy of her, whom she is happy to spend the rest of her life with. -”
