Get the Parent Teacher Conference mug.Asian Americans born to a traditional Asian family have it difficult. Although they are exposed to freedom of speech, freedom to choose and well freedom to everything, they cannot exercise their freedom to their full extent.
It is difficult for Asian American children to see their peers having the liberty to choose a college fit for their personality, or fit for their own career goals and at the same time having their parents supporting them.
Restrictions are not only placed on academics but also on their child's personal life. Asian parents wish to control every aspect of their child's life. The reasoning behind this maybe because they want their child to do better than everyone else. However, they do not realise that to do better than everyone else does not mean that they will be happy. To asian parents, happiness can only be achieved by satisfying conditions like a to-do list. *check examples below*. One can understand that they have more experience than a child has, but that does not mean they can push the children through a "short cut" in life and not allow the child to experience the same mistakes and the same problems their parents went through.

To-do list for happiness according to asian parents.
1) Go to a good college
2) Get married
3) Good self image
etc.
of course these to-do lists have sub-to-do lists.
1) Go to a good college
---------------------------
a) go to a good high school
b) get good grades
c) do an insane amount of extra curricular activities
etc.
2) Get married
-----------------
a) conditions for a perfect partner
-has to be asian
-has to have good job
-has to have parents who have respectable jobs
etc.
b) parents approve this person (or preferably, pick this person)
c) no dating basically - since you only date for a reason - which is to get married - therefore people who do not fit the asian parents' requirements are a waste of time.
etc.
3) Good image
--------------------
a) no back-chatting parents
b) over look personal problems instead of working them out.
c) don't do things that do not benefit this list. ie. going on the computer for non-work-related things or watch tv.
etc.

(This applies to a majority of asian kids in the US) The reason Asian kids in are very depressed, here are the charateristics of them:
1. THEY ARE OBSESSIVE ABOUT YOUR GRADES. They want you to go to a good college like a UC or Harvard and stuff and get tons of scholarships and be rich lawyer or doctor. Here are grade when it comes to asian parents:
A - Asian standard, the only acceptable grade.
B - Bad
C - Catastrophe
D - Death
F - F***'d
Tip- DO NOT tell them you have a bad grade when they are in the kitchen! Most of my fellow asians in my town keep shoes near the kitchen area, if you tell an asian parent you bad grade in the kitchen you could get shoes thrown at you, you could get maimed by utensils and if they are near the knifes you are just plain screwed.
2.THEY ARE CONTROLLING.
Who you are, what you wear, what you do- it's all up to them
3. THEY THINK ANYTHING YOU DO ASIDE FORM STUDYING IS A WASTE OF TIME.
4. THEY ARE ABUSIVE.
It's simple, you don't meet up to their standards they have no problem in getting rid of you.
5. Rice. And fish.
6. If you have many possessions they will take them away. If you don't they will just take away your dignity.

Asian kid: I got a freakin B on the test! I'm dead!
Friend who got an A and doesn't have Asian Parents: Listen! You can switch tests with me! It's a scantron! They will never know!
Asian kid: We can't, they will find out somehow! I'm screwed either way!

-CHARACTER TRAITS & HABITS:-
• They think that they know everything about you, including your food, music, movie, personality, and sexual preference. Once again, they're always right, even when you're obviously nothing like what they say.
• They believe that they reserve the right to automatically win any arguement of their choosing. When the far greater majority believes the oppsosite of what they say, but is comprised if children, the parent/s can automatically win and end the argument by saying "ENOUGH!" or "too bad", and nothing else can be said about it without serious risk of getting grounded or being ranted at/dismembered. This goes for anything else they say as well.
• They will often embarass you in front of your friends. The parent/s will often claim that they "forgot" or they "won't do it again", despite the fact that even they know that that isn't true. Every person has at least one story of this.
• Nearly every father will attempt to crack a wisey/pun/obviously crappy joke to your friends. Said friends will either pretend to laugh and then secretly shun you, or just drop you and not hang out with you.
