44. Is living together without getting married acceptable in your country?
It depends to what extent the couple would adhere to earlier customs. What I
mean to say is that these days it is becoming more and more acceptable. For
example, young people feel that they first want to get know each other even
better by living together. When they are absolutely sure that they are able to
adapt to each others lifestyles, they would then most probably decide to get
married.
45. Do you think couples should live with their parent or on their own?
There are several reasons as for why I think couples should life on their own.
Allow me to explain by mentioning some of them briefly. Firstly, I believe couples
should become independent as soon as possible. For example, they should learn
how to cope with the money at their disposal. Secondly, I believe they should be
alone as soon as possible. For example, should they have an argument, they
have to solve the problem by themselves.
46. What responsibilities should a couple take?
There are several responsibilities that couples should take. Allow me to explain
by mentioning some of them briefly. In the first place, I believe they should be
responsible for their own finances. For example, young couples usually do not
have a lot of money, and find it difficult to make ends meet. Secondly, I believe
that later they have to look after their children. For example, they have to feed
and clothe them, and ensure that they get a good education.

7. Are there any traditions around the birth of a baby in your region?
Yes, there are quite a few. Firstly, after the baby is born, the father will give his
wife some flowers, and take photographs of the baby and her. When the baby
arrives at home, the parents will make prints of its hands and feet. This, together
with a paintbrush made by using some of the babies’ hair, will be kept as
memorabilia.
