You're an idiot! In a lot of situations, Asian parents are immigrants who've come here with not much and they do depend on their grown-up children to provide and help them. If the children pay for the parents' mortgages, then they don't have much left for their own.

I've heard of this phrase, tell me if it's true, Malloric: "White people would murder their families for a buck or two." I didn't say that!

But if you look at all the family crimes (murders, suicide-murders, rapes, molestations, etc.) in the U.S., the majority of cases are Caucasians; as are the serial killers.

Just finish a couple beers and suddenly got the urge to share story because it seems like my associates just dont understand. Just celebrate my 27th bd last week and things seems to get more complicated when ur older. Im chinese/viet whose lucky enough to be with a caucasian girl since 2005. Im currently living at home with my parents not because i cant afford to live on my own but i just want to take care of them since they're in their early 60. My gf whose been independant since college and got her own nice apartment. She wants to move in together to start a future together.

Now not trying to point fingers at any race but i notice caucasian/latino lifestyle is to raise your kids and send them off to college and your responsiblity as a parent is complete. The kids then go on and move out to start their life. That how every sitcom/tv shows portray the circle of life. I was raise in the US since 5yrs old but tend to value and respect the relationship with my parents very highly. Typical asian cultural teach the kids have a responsiblity to take care of the parents (especially the male) when they step in their elder years, not get away from them.

My circle of friends are majority white (late 20's) and the tend to think im got the homesick disease. I got in a argument with my gf about not wanting to move in together YET, or she can come live with me and my parents. Im currently paying the mortage on the house that my parent buy 10 yrs ago. So moving out and paying for two places is tough. She immediately hated the idea of not having our own place/freedom. She move out long ago so she sees the mailman more often than her own parent. I find it very sad and selfish how someone can live life without a care for others. I dont blame her at all because i realize she not the only person in this soceity who live life this way. The argument between us become heated and our friends start taking side. They all believe that i need to grow up and be committed to my relationship.

HUH? WHAT? i dont think im wrong or crazy, it just different cultural background taught us different lesson. Old ppl will die, so why not spend time with them while they're here and not just the monthly 2hr visit. Just wondering if any folks here are NOT living with their parents and dont feel obligated to take care of them for whatever reason.

ima end my rant here.....please no jokes as I plan to show her the thread since we havent talk much and just want to reach the message out to her
Everything you said is right. However, you dont need to live WITH your parents to do it. Live near them, but most women, American women, wont ever agree to your train of thought on the issue. The American family standard is borderline disgusting.

And you don't think that this is related to the fact that the majority of this country is Caucasian?

In traditional Anglo-American culture there is no reason to live in your parents home aside from being such a massive failure that you are incapable of providing for yourself either economically or emotionally and can only survive by continuing to be useless leeches on the good graces of clingy parents who are too weak minded to do the right thing for their kids and kick them out of the house. Living with your parents much passed the college years reflects poorly on both the parent and grown child. Traditional Anglo-American culture places tremendous value on independence and self-reliance, and living in your parents home proves that you are a deficient individual and reflects on your parents failure in allowing you to become such a failure.
it's difficult to use the Caucasian frame of reference for Asian immigrants.
based on my own experience, I would say that most of what you stated here is wrong.
most of my friends are physicians (Asians or not). Most of them would be considered successful by most people standards. Almost all of my Asian friends live at home until their late 20's or even early 30's. The parents in all cases want this.
Most of them contribute significant financial support, not to mention emotional support to their parents.

Possibly b/c Asians tend not to report abuses within family b/c of the shame it would bring.

read up on this before sprouting off statistics.
also, where is the source of info??

You call being with a white girl lucky?!? Asian girls are FTW.... I have ALWAYS dated asian, mostly Japaneese, but now im with a white girl and wonder wtf is wrong with me. Then again I can tell you what is wrong with me, my past 4 JP girls went back to Japan and wanted me to come with them, but I was dumb and stayed here so I guess I asked for it, and REAL asian girls are like a needle in a haystack here... I cant stand any americanised/westernised bitch. Thats just dried up poon!!

I agree here, americanised girls will only hang around for whats best for them. They could give a shit less about helping out anyone else, why do you think the national divorce rate here in america is 50+% and climbing and the average marriage lasting roughly 5 years, give or take.

If you think im being sexist blaming it mostly on women then youre closed minded, how many men are stupid enough to divorce a woman that respects him, doesnt cheat on him, cooks him dinner every night, accepts responsibility for her actions, and gives him regular sex? I can't think of ANY man that would not lock onto a woman that does all these things happily, and worship her in return for doing so.

In 9/10 of the divorces I have witnessed, the girl has always claimed he MADE her perform the disruptive actions or someone else gave her more attention. I can see this if the husband put a gun to her head and commanded her to slut around yes.

But I could say both sexes are to blame in our current downward spiral. Dudes chase all chicks like they have never seen a vagina before, and most chicks hoard and collect as many whipped puppies as she can hold to follow her around to support any scandalous and filthy behavior she will want justified in getting her way.

This ideaology IMO just applies to the divorced statistics and NOT ALL Marriges, so soap box preachers blow me. This is merely an opinion of a percentage of the pie, not a general conclusion to all.
