A mother has come under heavy criticism on social media after making controversial comments about the kind of man she would allow to marry her daughter.
In a video circulating online, the woman is heard warning men who may be interested in her daughter that they should not approach her if they are not financially stable.
“If you don’t have money, don’t come to my house because my daughter’s body is not a child’s body. I won’t let any man who is not financially stable marry her,” she said.
Her comments have triggered mixed reactions, with several social media users accusing her of placing excessive emphasis on her daughter’s body and financial status when discussing marriage.
Some viewers have particularly taken issue with the statement that her daughter’s “body is not a child’s body,” describing the wording as inappropriate and unnecessary in a conversation about marriage and financial responsibility.
The mother, however, appeared to be stressing her expectation that any man seeking to marry her daughter must have the financial capacity to take care of a family.
The video has since generated widespread discussion, with social media users debating whether parents should set financial expectations for potential spouses or allow their adult children to make their own decisions about marriage.
