Luckily when I met my wife 30 years ago, my 'outlaws' were not that bad, but I still could feel that I was not 'good enough' for their daughter (is anybody?). I was trouble-in-a-nice-way , which my wife seemed to enjoy, as a way of rebelling against the 'law'. Her aunt's were somewhat worse than her parents, but the uncles were all cool characters.

)
Your outlaws might wakeup when they got grandchildren !!
