As globalization becomes more a part of our every day lives, so do interracial marriage and interfaith marriage. If you and your spouse come from different cultures and/or spiritual beliefs, it can be difficult for your respective families to understand or accept. Take great care in easing them into welcoming your spouse to the family.
- Whenever possible, have your family meet your partner in a friendly, non-formal gathering such as a picnic or sporting event. This takes the pressure off everyone and removes the feeling of judging or being judged.
- Do your best to respect both family's cultures and/or religions by attending holiday services, events, celebrations, etc.
- Most parents fear that their family beliefs will be lost if and when you have children. Make an effort to express your views on how to integrate your upbringing into your children's lives.
Always be prepared that not every family member will be able to accept an interfaith or interracial marriage. You and your partner came together in love, so let that love shine through. Perhaps in time the reluctant family member will come around.
