I do see your point here, but like the poster below you says its kind of a goodwill thing. Plus, I know that I would never have asked for permission if:
(A) I thought that my father in law would say no, or disliked me to being with.
(B) I wasn't pretty much 100% sure that my now wife would've said yes.
