This perception led to an escalating bride price, which in turn led to disputes.
Economic factors: With the development of social economy, people's living standards continue to improve, and the amount of bride price also increases. For the sake of face and dignity, some families blindly compare, resulting in the amount of the bride price exceeding their own affordability, which in turn leads to disputes.
