Summary |
It may not be widely known, but arranged and forced marriages are part of life in Australia. But, of course, marriages arranged by parents and family aren't always forced. Some cultural groups in Australia - among them Indian and Lebanese - are choosing to keep the tradition alive, and their children are happily allowing their spouses to be chosen for them. Some people, however, are agreeing to the marriages because of family pressure. This week Insight looks at the grey area between arranged and forced marriages. Australian current affairs forum hosted by Jenny Brockie. (An SBS Production) (Rpt) CC |
