[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Asian poster here: This is why Asian parents are in trepidation about their children marrying outside of the culture. We would never insist on our in-laws or parents staying in a hotel. We'd just accommodate everyone because they are family. I'd certainly not use double standards when it comes to my parent staying with us as opposed to my in-laws. Not intended to be a value judgement as much as an explanation of a glaring cultural difference. In fact, for most Asian parents if one were to tell them to stay in a hotel, they would not even come. I know that is how my parents would react.[/quote] Seriously? It's the end of the world to stay in a hotel or make other kinds of adjustments if one's DS or DD is in a happy cross-cultural relationship? These kinds of statements are a little ridiculous...immigrating and then expecting not to adjust to the cultural norm of the place you're living in isn't going to help anyone. [/quote]
