It is at this moment where I am truly grateful to be Chinese. The idea of a parent living a nice life while children have to made do and give up certain things is utterly unimaginable. If your father was chinese he would certainly give you financial assistance. Obviously he shouldn't give you everything but my mother would do what is within her power to help me.
Oh we are actually doing fairly OK more so than most USAians. He is just overworked. I am arguably underworked. But they are OK he helped me get my first job and I help my folks out with the property and business stuff. (I live with them.) We are actually going to go backpacking on Friday.
On aggregate I prob wouldn't want to be amerikan tho.
