[quote=Anonymous]Korean women of my mothers' generation were raised to show great respect for and deference to their elders. If they expect the same from the people their children marry, I can see how they could come off as crazy and controlling. Many of the older Korean women I know have adapted to American ways, even if they don't like them, and realize that the younger generation now calls the shots, but the same may not be true of more recent immigrants or of women who have spent most of their time in the US in immigrant enclaves. Can't speak to MILs from other Asian countries, but there may be a similar dynamic.[/quote]
