Thanks for sharing such an interesting topic this morning concerning the bride-price culture is a very good thing but a lot of mature men has become single just because they are unable to pay some parents as turning to a personal business where they charge much money when it come to bride price to me I doesn't see it and something that should be done that way

That price should be something that is not much just a little things to appreciate the parents of the bride two shows that you really know the value of taking their daughter away just to show your appreciation to them

I heard of some places whereby before you pick their daughter you will need to build house to the father mother and even the family there are some tangible bill you need to pay before you even plans of taking their daughter which I see this as a very bad habit your daughter should not be a form of business

I Never Said that price should not be paid because it's a culture is a science of showing value to the Bride is a very good thing but it shouldn't be something that will affect the man because in a situation whereby the husband go out and borrowed money maybe from the bank and end up in paying the Bride price by the time it took the wife home they will both be paying debt., instead of them working and enjoying their self they will be working and paying depth of the bride price which is very bad

A lot of things has been refused to take into consideration when it comes to the aspect of paying bride price you need to know the capacity of the man in fact I will suggest that the man should be has what a can pay as an appreciation not the parent giving a list so we won't give you a list whereby it will take the husband a very long time to fulfill all those things when we call husband will pay but they will make sure that they turned the daughter to a slave in their house

Some people you will get happy whenever they give birth to a female baby in the house because they know the money they are going to make why some family even decided not to train their daughter because they know the husband will do and this will bring a huge amount of money to them these are the bad things I see about the Bride price culture

Though paying pride price is a very good thing because it shows respect of the woman you are taking away from that family and he also make you to know the value and to treat her well or when it is getting much beyond control it affect the family as in some tribe that waited for a long time before they get married just because of the which money they collect from their hand

In conclusion my advice is this they should be done in a cultural way not to be done in a way that we are fed today couples even if they are together
