In Defense of Asian Parents

Response to this blog on Why Chinese Parents Don't Say I Love You

I actually always thought, 'why do my friends parents say I love you'

I'm grew up as an asian-american in the U.S. and I always thought it was weird that my friends' parents would show so much affection to their children. I felt like we had the same types of bonds with our parents but it just seemed weird to express it in such a way.

It wasn't a totally cold relationship, we spent quality time together and ate dinner and talked. They encouraged me and tried to mold me into a better person. This was also true of my friends' parents. (asian and non-asian). Maybe some people think it's tough love, but hey, I went to a good college and am driven enough to never give up when life gets tough!

So I didn't like the quote from the sociologist in this article, that asian parents are not good at expressing positive emotions and are used to educating children with negative language. You might be thinking, wait my friend's Asian parents are like that too! There are parents from all cultures like this. There are also a large array of other very good parents that do things in their way. I believe the reason of why Asian parents don't say I love you is more cultural than they're bad at showing emotion.

I understand there are people out there that will disagree with my thoughts. Maybe I'm the strange one.
