We should think that if other parents are giving their daughter to us, we should take care of her. • For money we should not tease the girl. • We need to take this thing on ourselves that if our daughter, sister is going to marry with someone and boy’s family tease her a lot only for money or property, how bad we will feel that time. So we should think about this.13. Continued…. • Government should also make strict laws against this bad dowry system because causes of dowry system making nation’s reputation down.
