[quote=Anonymous]I grew up with a few close Asian friends. I'm interested in how social media is allowing young Asian-Americans to rebel against their parents. I respect the energy that many types of immigrant parents (not just Asians) put into parenting. A lot of it comes from a place of fear or not understanding alternate routes to success. Having successfully become Americans, now they need to assimilate a little more to the "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness" ethos. The video was touching. It did make it clear that one of the parents had a mental health issue. But also that the kid did not want to be in a foster home. This is way beyond even average tiger parenting. TL;DR refrain from pushing kids so hard that they are at risk of suicide.[/quote]
