(User Info | Send a Message) | DalaiWu, I take it you are a parent of 2nd generation Asians? Like my parents were. If you are raising them in the USA like I think you are you are raising very nice good boys but boys that AFs will NEVER be interested in. Sorry, but raising boys to meet the approval of parents will simply make them bachelors for life in the USA.
You have too much Asian thinking in your parenting. This model does not work well in the USA. Girls are (and should be) much more demanding. Sure they want boys that they will EVENTUALLY want to show to their parents but like the song says, "GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN" first.
Read the other Audrey Magazine article on Bad Boys vs. Good Boys. It will explain it better why girls are attracted to so called bad boys.
As an immigrant Asian parent, you will have to understand the American mindset. Don't condemn it, it works fine in the USA. Don't be ignorant and ignore it, you will alienate your children. In short, don't raise NERDS, I have enough 35+ Asian friends who will never marry because their parents blatantly discouraged them from socializing on an American basis. Sure they have great degrees, jobs and are respectful. But damn lonely.
If you live in America, raise your kids like Americans. Don't worry, yes there are conflicts between cultures but there is also compability. Assimilated Asian-Americans can still have strong Asian cultural ties. |
