I have Kuwaiti-Saudi children, and praise be to God, we have had no problem. Parents who raise their children with a clear identity and love do not need to be afraid.

Children raised across two cultures are often stronger and broader in outlook. Problems arise when the parents approach upbringing as though one side must win and the other must lose.

The practical challenge is administrative: the children's nationality, residency and documents. That deserves advice from a qualified lawyer before the marriage, not afterwards.
