[quote=Anonymous]My DH is non American and we have a 17yo. It’s been hell trying to navigate this. I (the wife) am American and DH comes from a very strict culture that demands respect of elders and gives harsh punishments to children. DD and DH barely have a relationship at this point. DD sees him as extreme and irrational. His culture is just so different. In America respect for adults is earned, while in DH’s culture adults are simply entitled to respect. It’s awful and enough to make me think question our marriage. Good luck to you OP. [/quote]
