First of all, the cultural problem. Being from different cultures can cause disagreement between partners. Let's say a muslum marries a jewish woman. So the agreement what to celebrate or not can be very common. Because both cultures have their specific events they celebrate, in certain places and time. So this problem probably does occur very often.
Second of all, the regional problem. As I mentioned before, people celebrate different events in different places and time. They all have their own custom holidays and way they celebrate them, so if both of the families live in different regions, the agreement on what and where to celebrate can be very difficult to solve. For example, one of the partners in catholic, and the other one is lutheron. They both celebrate Christmas, but in a bit different ways. This problem do tend to be inflicted on the children, because they have to embrace one of the following religions, and celebrate these events just, because they cant be both catholic and lutheron. And we must not forget the location problems, because living in different regions can cause the problem of family gathering too.
However, being in a family of mixed cultures is not that bad. You get to know different cultures, customs and traditions. So the children from these kinds of marriages will be more open minded, and that means that this will help them to adapt to the different groups of society and not just be sceptic and one sided, because the interracial problems are quite strong these days.
To sum up I would like to say that, even if the differences can be very big in mixed marriages, the couples will have to adapt to these circumstances, and find a way to please both of the families. It depends on the people them selves, you just have to accept the differences and not push them away.
