That feeling.

There is always that temptation, of migration

 Hopefully to put one in a better financial position

 In most cases some people tend to gravitate in a commune

 Where they can carry many of their national traditions of home

 Even though they are in a  quite different land

 It seems hard for them to really understand

 That what they could do in their native country

 Will not be accepted  or considered in anyway legally.

 Yes they will be no refusal of any particular religion

 So long as the practice is not a threat to the nation

 But must conform, to the laws as the native must

 Which in most aspects are fair and just.

 Now their offspring who are considered citizens of that territory

 Will in most cases embrace those habits and customs readily

 And most certainly, will not be saddled with or straddles by antiquity

 Therefore would not accept their parent’s customs that easily.

 As all their formative years would have been in a specific locale

 They will embrace all the habits and practices in total

 Things like dating, and falling in love and then latter marry

 The one they choose, and not someone prearranged  by daddy.

 Now the father do not want to change so he gets upset

 Seeing this as now a form of total parental disrespect

 Completely ignoring the daughter’s happiness, but he dwindling power

 And because his daughter’s ways have  now brought him some dishonor.

 His anger now seem to transposed him, back to the native land

 So in  this state he has now a feeling of being in command

 The punishment meted out, goes way beyond an admonition

 Sometimes some irreparable damage can be done to the person.
