This is one thing we people in Asia do right! Parents feel responsible about their kids until they die and children feel responsible for their parents until their parents die. Westerners have a lot of student loan. We donât. Yeah, it might not seem right but wealth being absolutely inheritable gives us good enough head-start in life. And of-course we will pay back by taking care of them. We never move out(kind of)! Be it 18, 35 or 50. Taking care and being taken care of is a forever thing.
Edit: Abandoning is a harsh word! Replace it with âNot providing monetary assistanceâ
Edit: Shouldâve said American instead of western. My apologies.
Edit: My parents for me are as integral to me as my spouse would be. Itâs probably because we are more family oriented than individual oriented. Just for your knowledge, literally everyoneâs college fees are paid by their parents. There is no culture of saying âMy parents houseâ and âMy houseâ. We are literally like one family. And about having freedom, yes i get as much freedom as i want. I decide my life. I will be a doctor in few years, move to USA with 0 debt with about few hundred thousand dollar to invest and start my career! Yes, its my parents money, i will use it build even bigger fortune, spend it, pass it to my kids and that is how things will work. My parents need to be cared for i will care for them! They suffer with a disease that costs millions to treat, i will save up to treat them. That is what i mean by saying âWe donât really move outâ. Sorry for making this longer.
Edit: Almost one in ten 18 year-olds have experienced homelessness at some point in their life! What are you guys talking about?
I am not saying everyone has to go through â18, get out!â But the difference between degree of parental responsibility is insane.
Most of American parents wonât bother paying for their kidâs tution even though they can.
