A lot of safety and security gets lost by that, though.

It depends. I always looked after my brother, because I'm older and I needed to be responsible for him.

But if my wife had obeyed her father, she would have been the 12th wife of a man she despised.

Why would he have married her to him?

[Marriages are often due to politics or ensuring a girl's economic safety...]

Because he was wealthy and powerful, and her father feared him.

And he wanted to marry her?

Because she was beautiful, and a princess.

But her father can't have been a strong king.

No, he wasn't. he was wealthy, but he was loosing his power because he was weak.
