asian culture question: is it normal to insult their kids infront of strangers?

[Gunter S]

went to an impromptu dinner party, the family was asian, and the kids were helping to serve the food. the mother commented that her daughter was too dark and skinny for the likes of Chinese society and had surgical scars to boot (while the kid was sitting at the table) and that this was one of the primary reasons they immigrated to Canada. i was kinda like humm, and kept chewing.

your take?

The term "asia" involves many different ethnicities and cultures that are each unique in their own way. There are so many different cultural differences between say, korean culture and Japanese culture. Sure, there are some ethnic similarities due to intertwining histories and religion... But to answer simply "yes or no" to this question would be pretty.. erm, unrepresenatative.

To which asian culture are you referring? Chinese?

I don't know much about chinese cultural values and what the parenting tendencies and trends are, but I'm betting that this has more to do with how that specific family operates rather than to them being asian. If anything I have personally noticed that *many of* (not all) the chinese families i have grown up around were very competitive about their childrens' successes, and have tended to embrace the opportunity to show off their children's abilities rather than to degrade them infront of other families.

Aren't children supposed to be seen and not heard?

YES YOU'VE FIGURED US OUT!

Because the person happend to be a jackass, and asian means it's a cultural thing. Ahh, the mystical and mysterious culture of the east.

For being someone who constantly posts links to "thought provoking" articles, you constantly ask questions that fly in the face of common sense.

Hahahaha. Didn't know that insulting your kids was designated primarily for the "asian" culture.

Gunter, next time I sit at an impromtu "white" dinner and a kid gets insulted by their parent, I'll be sure to alert the government. :suspicious:

i'd be less surprised if he were sincere... but if he's trolling does that make it any less offensive?
