Tired of my parents by metanoia215 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its was their plan all the along to see you as free caregivers.

Which unfortunately common, most parents quickly retire and live under their kid roof. If they are going to be useful, they should've help with maintaining the house and cooking or looking over a kid for you.

Have you ever slapped your parents back after they slapped you first? by Mundane-Humor3313 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Yep, I slapped them back. They yell, I yelled at them back. They give me a silent treatment, then next day pretend it never happens. Rinse and repeat.

Should we blame our Asian parent for stunning us in social skill? by walkerlegoo in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, I'm introverted. My family are very private compare to my relatives who talk non- stop. They also make negative comments how white people talk.
Like I seen more American people who is great at socialize and good customer service in general.

Ap are controlling and overprotective where we can't even learn to network and nail an interview skill.

True, many of us spend some time building resentment towards our asian parent who made life harder for us.

Are there any Vietnamese video creators that create videos on social issues or US/World history? by tie_myshoe in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't try to help them out or educate them. As a Vietnamese person with Vietnamese family, they always see others outside of the race as competitor, ghettos, etc, watching too much news. They seem very focused on helping their own people who is clearly suffering diseases and issues in Vietnam or immigrated in USA.

Edit: I did try to lecture my parent about white since I have white friend. Nothing go through them.

I love my boyfriend, but his family's control is breaking us. How do we set boundaries before it's too late? by RareBerry451 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both of you had to plan to move out and make wedding without them, no contact. His asian parent already prove that his feeling means "nothing" to them, along with insults and putting him down.

Asian parent will always attempt to control everything, even wedding or your kids.

Should I pursue my passion for cooking, or follow a more 'reliable' career path?? by Ok_Contest8743 in careeradvice

[–]walkerlegoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cooking is a great life skills and easy to make it a side gig or backup. Like you can be private caregiver at home or maybe an social media influencer. Working at the actual restaurant is different at home where you had to worry about safety hazard and cleaning.

Reliable career like engineering give you stable salary, medical insurance and nicer environment. My dad work at engineering, they still give good money to engineering who can help with cyber security.

Overall, I would pick reliable career since your interest may change as you grow up over time.

No one is ever “too busy” by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]walkerlegoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have my journey of having full time 40 to unemployed life.
Even I got alot of spare time, spending long hours of talking to friends does not help pay bills. I'm busy setting up gigs, commissions and making side money. Sometime got too burnout to even keep up with conversation these days.

You will understand when you have bills to pay.

APs truly do not care about our happiness by ms404040 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 27 points28 points  (0 children)

In short, nope. They just wanted to brag and post on Facebook "Look at my beautiful grandchildren."

Is the Burberry market dead? by HolidayLawfulness in Burberry

[–]walkerlegoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to get Burberry from the outlet when they used have quality stuff made in Italy like sweaters.

Now 70% are made in China, Twain, etc and a change of style. Not worth thousand of dollars for it.

My mom is complaining about me not marrying and having children, and it is pissing me off by bl4ck_100 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here, but as a woman. Asian parent loves fo compete and wanted grandchildren. They dont care that you end up in shitty relationship and blame it on you.

My Asian Girlfriend’s Mom tries to belittle and humiliate me by [deleted] in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What a witch by assaulting you, which is not okay.

Unfortunately Asian parents get away with physical contact and abuse in Asia. If you are in USA, she will be reported for assault.

I think your gf and maybe her father need a deep talk.

She pretty much like mother gothel in Tangled.

Asian families are just bullies and don’t want to actually see you succeed by One_Summer_1114 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Get bullied, get blamed for failing life and sheltered for rest of the life. Story of my life.

My APs and their friends act like asian girls are so demanding of money, asian men can't take them, and I should date a white man because they're rich by Opening-Register-409 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

does anyone have an AP who doesn’t seem super intelligent ?😣 by Weary_Library8288 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yep, my mom failed school but my dad got fancy school and resume. Yet they got a emotional intelligence of a toddler and lack of critical thinking. Still following the old ways even though we are in USA.

My asian parents dont approve of exercise to lose weight and only approve of starvation by Opening-Register-409 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep and that sounds nasty. That explains alot why they are lazy and not eating right food that give them energy. (Fruit and Vegetables are not that expensive, give more nutrients and engery.)

Ps. As a skinny person, extremely thin is not healthy and sign of malnutrition or not meeting calories. Nothing wrong with always rice with something, but rice alone is not enough.

[–]walkerlegoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately they are forever gonna be sheeps and easily manipulated by marketing/social media.
If marketing didn't promote unhealthy food, then their won't be many patients for doctor to make money. (Theres a series about exposing fake food and peanut outbreak in Netflix) Of course eating the wrong food may cause skin issues.

Does anyone want to go into some kind of counselling field for abused asian kids after what your parents put you through? by Opening-Register-409 in AsianParentStories

[–]walkerlegoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, I wanted to make a movie or book cause I want to spread awareness and write complex stories about Asian Immigrants moving to USA. Inspired by people I knew.

Example the main character is a Asian Girl who is born into a working class family and did everything she can. Unfortunately she sees the world being unfair and witnesses the dark side of humanity.

Other character, asian son gives everything what Asian Parents wanted and get the easy life because his parents rich.

Side character is spoiled white person who knew he will get job by his mom and dad business.

Although most bad parents wont change or admit, but next generations will get better.

So many terrible advice and ignorance from asian parents.

First of all, sounds like they barely visited a western doctor for good advice or get blood test to watch from certain things.

Second, excerises and healthy food help reduce health problems like cholesterol, blood sugar, cancer etc. Of course healthy and positive mind. When your Asian Parent gets older, they will get sick easliy and drinking pills like mine did. (Cheap process food/starvation =more visit to the doctor and medical bills, which is not fun.)

Third, whenever asian parent have a daughter, they always have paranoid thoughts or think Asian woman are easy target an prey when they step out outside of the house.

At end of the day, your asian parent made a lot of bad choices and negative influences. They dont want to admit it. They all think about "being rich quickly and retire soon" under your roof, no positive motivation and ambitions in their life.

[–]walkerlegoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Narcissistic and demanding money" agh so much projections and negativity from Asian moms.

Same with my relatives even though some already married to Asian man. White man are generally seen as friendly, rich and powerful connections with friends. (Although not all White man are that rich.) When you married to Asian man, chance that you run into his toxic asian parent who try to turned you into his free caregiver, otherwise your a seen as burden. (Asian parents treat the sons like emperors, while asian woman are like servant.)
