Neighbourhood - Gisborne

Arranged marriage for our sons would be a good question. We are open to what our kids want to do including their career choices and also what partners do they choose in their lives, but we can always say 'guys, this worked for us. This worked for your grandad and your grandmum. It's up to you to follow the success story or find your own'.
