[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a close friend who was Vietnamese. She was raised to respect her parents. She was RAISED that way. When I said I didn't want to do something my mom wanted me to do, she would say, "Why would you choose to do something you know will bother your mom?" etc. It was part of her culture. It's part of American culture to be [b]selfish and and ungrateful and independent[/b]. It's so ingrained in the American experience we don't even recognize it. I didn't until it was pointed out to me by my friend, who had no problem being grateful to her parents. We were in our 20s.[/quote] One of these things is not like the other[/quote]
