If someone is parented well, you can see it from a mile away … and if they’re not, you can see it from a mile away.
Too many parents view their kids as a product. Too many parents see their kids as an extension of them and their own accomplishments.
And that’s when everything breaks.  
In this conversation, I talk more about problems with parenting in Asia (and the rest of the world).

    100%! “You’re a person with a product”

    It’s so sad that parents want the safe job for their kid. They worry that once they die what is my kid going to do with their lives.

    I wish these videos were translated to Spanish or had captions in Spanish.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Uzma Qasim says:

    The problem lies in the mentality that one academic failure means end of the world
    Maybe this is why we are afraid to take risks. Shit I am stuck in a situation where I can't do anything except study and if I don't I get to face emotional torture by them

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars protoluigi says:

    I think it's a worldwide problem, not just an Asian problem. However, I love this guy, speaks the truth and very relatable, and I think he thinks more about the children than the people who preach "think about the children".

    Wow Gary you inspire me to be the best parent in the future

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dark Angel says:

    I want to pursue computer science in my college but my parents are forcing me to take up chemical engineering. What do I do, I got no way out and sometimes I feel so miserable that I go too low and think about ending my life.

    Hello Gary, thank you, you are so very right in this epizode. I am from Slovakia and I had (still have) good parents who didnt push me into anything ever. After comunism stopped in our country, my parents started their own business. Just to make you understand it, it was not allowed before, it was against law to be enterpreneur.. so they were among the first ones, when it was acctually possible to have a business and make a living out of it… The reason why I am writting this is, that they had now knowledge about how to run a bussiness, and no skills, almost no one to ask for an advice (there was no internet or youtube in 1990 in slovakia :D) … but they were brave, and curious and my dad always says it is fun to sell and it is the easiest job.. However we lost our firm years later (the reasons are too complicated, and not very important to the idea of my post), and I was 25 at that time, and even thought I was not responsible for the entire firm, I really felt it as my own failure and I got really scared of those "dark clouds" in bussines. After that I closed my self to business thinking, and I went to find a job, with saying that somebody else can provide the work, and I want that steady paycheck at the end of the month… but guess what… I found a great job, with great sallary, but had to work for somebodys dream for 10-12hours a day. 3 years laater I became very sad and not happy person… and it was my pregnancy that saved me, and woke up my enterpreneur self, that i dont want to teach my kid that nine to five mindset, and i want to give her the freedom my perents gave me. So after maternity leave I took a job, part time job, to increase my skill levels (as an accountant) and to pay my bills., but in the evenings I planned and worked on my own accounting firm idea.
    So yes, once again I found myself as an enterpreneur, with my experiences, with the knowledge that it can fall down anytime. So thank you, and sorry for the rant 🙂 i love your autenticity very much 🙂 (and sorry for the grammar, im not native speaker :))
