[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do Americans think so differently about parenting than other places? In my country, of course we involve ourselves in our children’s lives; that’s a parents job. Just letting a child makes choices for himself leads to childish outcomes, which are not optimal. This is why we are the ones to select the activities, the school, and eventually their partner in the marriage. This is a system which has Ben proven to work because it is an ancient system. Why can’t Americans see this? [/quote] Troll. Even the most traditional south asian families I know are not choosing their child's partner. They might support their child in finding someone, but they're not saying "you must marry this person no other choices"[/quote]
