Oooo…

this kind of mindset, i think this is strictly asian tbh, in my country you're too old if you want to get a job if you're 25 (I'm SEAsian)

Well … in my country, our graduated (university) age is younger than others , but we actually do not care about you have job or not afterwards , yes ppl you know ask you like “what are you doing now?” , if you reply “I’m doing this or that or nothing” they won’t say anything at all they js ask for like just a greeting way. BUT big yes when we want to go aboard and find job , our age is our biggest weakness. I’m too old to go aboard now too.

And maybe different in our parenting systems, bc 70 to 80% of elders from my country is really strict and stick to old rules and they don’t wanna let their children to freely live or do their own things. They always decide what to do or not to in behalf of youngsters. And they are like “you’re my child so you must do what I said” or “I can feed you, you have job or not doesn’t matter” like that -_____-

Sorry for many notis, I’m also from one of SEAsians.

yo SEAblings! i see, in my perspective it's kind of reassuring, bcs in my country they want their children to provide instead (like some kind of investment) both still sucks tho :(

Both suck really! Youngsters became parents is ok , they provide everything for children bc we all know what are important and what are not…. but old “parents” just like my parents who are over 50 to much older , they’re the problem. They’re so narrow minded and can’t go with the flow of 21s at all. They want incomes from their children (if possible) but they don’t wanna spend money to “invest” in children’s well being or taking courses to get good jobs or sth like that . They have a big trust issues in us LOL. Well, I wish your life to be so much much much better than me. GOOD LUCK,buddie!

uhuh I get it, especially older asian parents. i hope we both a good luck and good life yeah
