    Read between the lines.
    The emphasis on money and success is an illustration of the immigrant struggle and immigrant parents do not want their children to struggle and face the hardships that they had to deal with, coming to a new country and a new culture.
    It doesn't matter where they come from, but all immigrant stories are a saga of struggle and sacrifice to provide a bright future for their children .

If you can't behave like a civilized adult despite being an adult, you're not going to get the respect civilized adults get. If you need therapy to stop behaving as emotionally incompetent as a child and you still refuse to do it, then other people are absolutely not obliged to deal with your temper tantrums.

I think americans/canadians/western europeans can learn a lot from us when it comes to multigenerational family ties and closeness beyond the nuclear family. But we can learn a lot from them when it comes to being open minded about careers etc. Basically what happens when cultures mix is that hopefully everyone learns from each other and we all progress further.

      @@katew.176 Seeking asylum is a long and complicated process, especially for people who don't have the legal or language skills to understand the immigration process. Asylum status is difficult to gain because of how strong and detailed your case needs to be in order to fit within one of the categories to be considered for asylum or refuge. Even when someone has gained asylum, it can take years for them to be granted citizenship. I worked at a non-profit organization dealing specific with providing legal assistance for asylum seekers, and saw firsthand how tedious the process can be. People wait months to even hear back if their case was taken on or not. Political asylum is not automatically granted to whoever needs or seeks it.

Violence or fearing for your life I understand is asylum. And although it is a long and difficult road, that's not to say EM gain legal status more often if they came illegally. They have less chance actuall of legal status, because they don't meet the criteria. The original comment referred to legal vs illegal immigrants. So that's what I was responding to.

      we first seek some quack doctor, miracle healer or magical body oil rub for few months then when things go south, we ask our nurse/medical field grad cousins/aunt/uncle/niece/nephews even neighbors.

      LISTEN TO HIM.
      Being with guys who don't know how to cook, or actusl life in practical ways is like.... nah. Just nah. Girls might think the guy's cute when they're younger, and priorities are generally retarded, but by age 30 etc, the more actual life things guys can't do well, the more infuriating it can be lol. And it tends to be those things which make or break a union.
      If a guy can cook, it is honestly such a massive win.

    3:40 In my high school computer course, before we took our final exam, our teacher calculated the highest grade we could get on the final that would result in a failing grade for the course. Me and this other guy who actually did our work were both making 100 in the class so we would have to score negative points to actually fail (we could skip the final altogether and still pass) but just for fun we decided to try and come up with fictional ways we could make a negative grade. All I remember that we came up with was spell your name wrong and turn it in on a piece of cheese 🤣
