What has it got to do with upbringing?

Teenagers are kicked out of their house after high school in the States and if they fail to launch, the parents will have to think of some way or employing someone to kick their children out of the house. For further info, please consult the movie "Failure to Launch". In Asia, we stay with our parents until we get married and may stay on even after marriage! Basically, there is no issue about staying at home as long as you contribute to the daily expenses and houseworks. I think parents are even glad that their children are still living with them after they get married.

On the issue of upbringing which basically means training that someone received while he/ she grows up! They are different types of upbringing and it will probably depends on the culture, religion, who your parents are and the type of family background you come from. I don think anyone will say I have better upbringing than you etc because who is to judge whether anyone has better upbringing! Will you say that a politician will have better upbringing than a polite waiter working in a restaurant? In the news and especially in some parliament of some countries, corruptions and even cat fighting are occurring among politicians during parliament sessions. A polite waiter who smiles at his customer will warrant a praise but is it his good upbringing that he smiles a lot or is it just his friendly nature? Point to ponder.

Tiring day today especially since I din sleep well last nite so going to end this post here n go to sleep.

Insult me but please don insult my parents! I think they are pretty proud of the fact that they did not fail in their parenting cos we din end up as criminals!

"I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One's enough." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

A round of applause for Emerson, he said it all!
