Script

Dr 6. Monroe: This is Dr. Ellen Monroe on Love Talk. This is the part of the show where we listen to our callers’ advice. Tonight we have Sunhee, a woman with a love problem. Sunhee, tell us about your problem.

Sunhee: I’m from a Korean family, and I’m in love with a man from India that I met here in the U.S.

Dr. Monroe: Okay, and…

Sunhee: He’s asked me to marry him, and I said yes.

Dr. Monroe: So what is the problem?

Sunhee: It’s my parents. They’re very traditional, so I’m afraid of telling them that I’m engaged 13. I’m worried that they won’t let me marry him.

Dr. Monroe: Hmm.

Sunhee: I can’t go against my parents’ will, but this is the man I want to marry.

Dr. Monroe: Hmm. That’s Sunhee’s problem, folks 14. Now, what’s your advice to her?

Sunhee: Hello. What’s your advice for our worried friend?

Carla: Hello. I’m Carla, from Canada, and I married a Chinese man five years ago. When I first told my parents I wanted to marry a foreigner with different religious 15 beliefs, they were very angry. You see, they’re very traditional. They’ve always expected me to marry someone Canadian, from the same religious background.

Dr. Monroe: Then what happened?

Carla: For four years, they hardly talked to me, and they never came to visit us. it was like they disowned me…

Dr. Monroe: Four years, you say. After four years something changed?

Carla: Yes. When our little girl was born, I sent my parents a picture of her, and wrote, “Your granddaughter would like to see you.” A week later they called, and a month after that they came to see us – well, they came to see my daughter, any-way. Now they’re trying – they still aren’t comfortable with my husband, but they’re trying to understand him.

Dr. Monroe: So, what’s your advice?

Carla: Don’t give in to tradition. Marry the person you love. But have your first child soon – don’t wait four years like I did. That’s too long to be divided from your parents.

Dr. Monroe: Sounds like good advice to me.
