I'm not sure if this falls under "background" so much but... it really is true, you marry a guy, you marry his family. Trust me, I found this out the hard way. No matter how many times he tells you it's your (as in you and him) life, if his parents are butting in before the wedding, the I dos won't change anything.
And sometimes its not that obvious... he may say he doesn't agree with his parents or he doesn't want them running his life, but his actions may prove differently.
