Debate in favour or against "lord ullin's daughter was right in her decision to defy her father"

Answer 1

Lord Ullin's daughter was absolutely right in her decision to defy her father. As the vendetta between her father's family and lord Ullva's family had been going on since ages, there was no scope of the families becoming united in wedding. Before Lord Ullin's daughter took this decision of eloping, she must have weighed the possible solutions to the problem. She might have even discussed the prospect of her wedding with the chieftain of Ulva clan; she might not have received an encouraging response from her mother. So she had to secure her happiness! If she delayed any further, her father could have fixed her wedding with some other chieftain. So she was absolutely right in defying her father and eloping with her lover.
