[QUOTE=Bhavya;7841]Because of dowry system Our families treated us as a liability.Now a days marriage become a "financial transaction" in our society.Marriage brokers demand their fees from the groom side according to the dowry that the groom's family getting from the bride side. This system making girls' life miserable.Some parents stop their girls' studies because if they study high they have to look for a equally qualified groom who will ask high dowry. So they stop their girls' studies and kill their dreams.

What is is your thought about this dowry system?[/QUOTE
Do we all really know who started dowry tradition ?? The women's side started this and gradually it changed and came to a point that "Men are women Seeker's"....ofcourse there are people ( Men ) seek for Dowry and it is a must to be banned.. abandoned...By stopping their education we are ruining their outworld knowledge and interaction which makes them innocent and home sick... let them discover... let them expose...... let them live their life which will soon bring a hype change over in humanity..... Live and let live

Hi Thuva,
You're right in ancient time as Adiza said parents gave dowry to their daughter ( note for girls not for groom or groom's family) because in ancient time girls were not educated as the modern girls so parents gave dowry to them for their financial needs. But nowadays some men ask dowry for themselves which is absolutely wrong. I totally agree with your point "live and let live"
