Bratti presents this scenario and choice her daughter would have to make. I am wondering, for the sake of unity in a household, how is this any different than accepting the family's parental choice? I don't see much difference between the importance of a family member and a marriage decision on compliance. Why does the wife have to hold to a stricter instruction than a minor child? You have to have unity. If not, you have a bit of chaos and people pulling in opposite directions.

For the good of the relationship, you have to go into with your eyes open, knowing that you can accept living by a set of rules even if you don't necessarily think they're biblical or necessary.
