Answer to Question 2

In arranged marriages, parents or relatives choose the children's partners. In such marriages, it's expectedthat the partners' love for each other will grow over time. In many countries, arranged marriages are the norm because respect for parents' wishes, family traditions, the kin group, and the well-being of the community are more important than the individual's feelings.
