A mother in China jumped to her death after failing to accept that her son will be married to a short woman.

The unidentified 47-year-old mother plunged into a river in Henan province, central China.

Initial reports claimed that she killed herself because their family could not afford the car demanded by the bride as dowry.

Two less people at the wedding will save on costs. I think they'll come under budget.

Opened to expect India. China probably would have been 2-4 on list.

What’s the deal with short? Never heard that as an issue in Chinese culture. I thought all of them were short.

I'm thinking something was lost in translation between the original report and this story.
