I have an issue with my family maybe you guys can enlighten me on this. I come from an asian family so our parents are strict. I have a sister who is 24, she finished colleged but is going again for another 5 year in university. She is currantly in school rightnow.
Am getting really sick of being a middle man between her and my parent, they look at me as being the responsible one since I make money and well behaved so they expect me to "parent" my sister which I don't want to since she is 24 and old enought to take care of herself.
My gripe is this, according to my standard her being 24 she should have had her own car. Already saved up enought to move out, should have do her own laundry, cook and actually help out the family if shes living under the same roof right? but she doen't do all that. I told her I want to teach her bussiness so she can make money on the side but she said she doen't want to and that when she get out of school (5 years from now) then she'll make alot of money and help out. I'll have to support her through school for another 5 year :cuss:
My question is should I expect more from her? I know western girls go clubbing and do stupid stuff all the time, she doent do that (seems to be starting to) am I and my parent being too strict? she told me that she is a good girl comparing to her friends who goes out all the time. I really want to tell her to get her shi t together but I think maybe my standard is too high and am just being strict. What do you think?
