[quote=Anonymous]That's true. Everyone's life situation is going to be different, and traditional family structures are breaking down in many places in Asia. Just like the American dream is to have a house with two married parents and kids. Well, not everyone can afford a house. Not everyone wants kids. Plenty of single parent households. Every situation will be different. In many parts of Asia having 3 generations living under one roof is not considered unusual, and is somewhat idealized. The immigrants from those countries will have a higher chance of accepting the idea of living with parents or in laws. In America, living with your parents or in laws just sounds weird, and to many people it's a signal that something went wrong.[/quote]
