Those kind of people think a daughter is a burden on them - so try to get rid off that burden as soon as they get first chance!
They think it is shameful to father a daughter !! So wed her off as soon as....
And also they think husband owns wife... can do ANYTHING with her !
There have been cases where good educated ppl also hv same mentality about their wives. So many girls life get ruined as their parents want nri boy for them thinking it will secure their life and future.
