Disregard age listed, its off by a few years and also disregard the info under my username
alright how the phukk u guys deal with your parents comparing you to your other family members or neighbors/friends ? Everything I seem to do they compare me against my cousins. My cousin just got into Stanford this past week and my mom has been nagging me to death calling me lazy,dumb, unmotivated, and everything. I did well in college and had a tough major and now on gap year before graduate school. Im probably gonna extend it one more year before going back to school.
But ya how do u deal with it , they driving me crazy and making me feel hella depressed. Brb cousin at stanford, cousin at ucla medical school, cousin at ucsf dental school, cousins that are engineers for boeing,pharmacists,investment bankers for JP Morgan, consultants, and doctors.
this shyte is driving me crazy. I need some feedback. Can only relate to asians,indians, and arabs/persians. White people probably dont know these feels. "keeping up with the jones" for white people is elaborating on how many exclusive country clubs you go to, what car you drive, and how big is your house. Keeping up with the jones for Asians is how many AP tests did your child pass, how many schools your child got into, how prestigious the job your child has.

tough to not care about what my parents think. I live with them and they are very influential in my life, as I assume most parents are in their childrens life.
you don't do that to your parents. Thats phukked up
age is wrong bro. I made this acct in hs when it was recommended to not give out any personal info over the internet. Im a few years younger.**Oriental Master Race CREW**

Who gives a chit. I'm asian, my parents always wanted me to go to uni, I'd be lying if I said they didn't compare me to family friends and cousins though but for the most part I feel like I was raised in more of a western way. But honestly I don't care what they think when it comes to chit like that...I do what I like to do. I don't know what your parents are like but if they are actually decent parents then they will actually appreciate your effort if you're trying hard.

lol @ caring what they have to say. yet all your cousins are working for people that didn't do nearly as well in academics i guarantee you.
funny thing about that is that you can be the smartest kunt or the most hard working kunt, but in the end if you are a sheep that can't think outside the box, you will end up working for someone else and kissing ass like a fkin dog.
learn to think for yourself
fk 9-5
fk working for others
fk living up to other peoples expectations, live up to ur own (but they better be good *******)
i've been in uni for less than a year and i'm already noticing how the majority of people's goals are just to graduate uni and get a decent paying job and settle down.
but who was ambition? who was drive?
why do only a few people strive for ceo 10k/day while the rest are only satisfied with sht pay and "decent" paying job? sure they want it, but do they try to go for ceo 10k/day? no they dont because they cant think outside the box like fking sheep stuck in a pen.

Bro just sit and have an adult conversation with them. They may be Asian and strict but still your parents and if you tell them how them saying those things make you feel then I'm sure if they love you they will stop. Being Asian I realize that most Asian parents bring over their culture and force it into their kids but then instead of the kids being adults and talking to their parents they just bish and moan about how their parents are overbearing.

You're thinking about this the wrong way. Yes it can be annoying listening to nagging all the time trust me bro I know the feel (chinese brah checking in). But it's a sign of maturity and overall 100x better to take advice like that and learn from it. You should strive to be better like people who are more successful instead of being bitter about it. I used to always be bitter but now I'm like fuark gotta catch up and use it to fuel my motivation.
Also, if your parents see that you're bitter about it you can bet your ching chong potato they're going to harass you 10x more.--JDKeystone is my 10/10 Crew--

Start a business online or start something and CEO 10k/day. That'll show em.
For the husband who told his wife he loved her before his plane went down in a field. For the wife who stopped in the stairs to call her husband to say she will love him forever. For the mothers & fathers who kissed their kids goodbye that morning for the last time. For the policemen, firemen, & other rescue workers who rushed in to help others & lost their lives. For the soldiers who fought back & made the ultimate sacrifice. Today, tomorrow, years from now, we will remember.

mad cuz they dont support me and call me a failure when i got a 3.7 every semester and good internships. They won't stop. They tell me to change my major on a constant basis. They tell me to go back to school to do pre req for pharmacy or medical school. Its better I be beta than alpha, cuz if i was alpha i would head butt them for nagging me so damn much. Really just killing any motivation or optimism i may have. They don't support anything I do. Just laugh and tell me to become a doctor.**Oriental Master Race CREW**

Chinese brah checking in. I know this feel of asian parents.. pushing their children to be mediocre. If there's anything about asian culture, it's that they always go by the play it safe and take no risks ideology. Fuk that, my parents give me chit all the time for bodybuilding or wanting to do daring things that typical asian-american brahs don't usually do, etc.
Do you, start your own CEO 10k/day business and prove what your value really is. It is what you make of it.. sure those other kids your parents nag about may be investment bankers, doctors, lawyers.. but their just sheep playing it safe. Take the risk, plunge, and show them that you're better than all of them.

Tell them to lower their expectations, ask them why they havn't achieved such things, you are doing this for your own benefit,not theirs, ect...
Parents are from Russia, dad is high-level engineer, and I dont have a math brain lol. Going for med in Community college, but cousins are all going to Ivy league schools.
