  14. Why did Nnaemeka marry Nene anyway? Does this mean that not everything our parents impose upon us is correct? For example, manners can be taught by parents to children from before the children even begin remembering. But what if the beliefs that were taught are wrong, and the parents' ideals prevent the child from judging what is right and wrong for themselves, and allowing the pick what THEY want, not their parents?
