    When Hassan said "Immigrant parents slap your face, it bruises your soul" I felt that
  • @jsbedi60
    Read between the lines. The emphasis on money and success is an illustration of the immigrant struggle and immigrant parents do not want their children to struggle and face the hardships that they had to deal with, coming to a new country and a new culture. It doesn't matter where they come from, but all immigrant stories are a saga of struggle and sacrifice to provide a bright future for their children . YES. I am a first generation immigrant.

    1:53 omg so true. my mom could literally be dying but she would just make ginger tea and say she’s fine
  • The holy trinity of strict parents Italian, Latino, Asian. One beats you with the pin, one beats you with the chancla, and the last one beats you with expectations. They all beat your soul. Choose your fighter.
  • @mcrorfob
    OMG the allowances for latinos 😭😭😭 I remember asking my dad why we didn’t get allowances & he said we don’t get them because there’s no word for allowance in Spanish so it doesn’t exist for us lol

    7:15 “All this good job good job good job. How about at the end of the day, it’s just ONE good job?” 😂

    "Immigrant parents slap your face bruise your soul" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😫 So true.🤷🏾‍♀️😅 Talk back get slapped; you could be 40.......u still wouldn't talk back.
  • I’m so grateful I have indigenous or native parents, they’ll support me in whatever I choose to do. My whole family/ community in general
  • @fabihagani6403
    Jokes apart I salute all those parents who migrate to another countries and struggle financially emotionally physically just to provide good future and life to their kids ❤️❤️
  • @BoyAditya
    This is like their therapy 😂 let it out ..
  • Told my parents I couldn’t be a medical doctor, they said it’s ok be a PHD doctor. The atrocity I tell you.
  • Love and totally get all of these cultures!❤❤❤I’m a Caucasian immigrant from Western Europe but my parents insisted my four sisters and I play violin, cello and piano professionally-OR ELSE! Music lessons,weekly orchestra practice, music camps practicing for four hours a day, while insisting we all get straight A’s, winning competitions, conservatory schooling, etc. The constant pressure to succeed was overwhelming. -Thank you for your stories and bringing laughter to so many!😂
  • I once asked my African mom if she’d ever stop loving my siblings and I, and she straight up was like “yeah I’ve got a list” so yeah immigrants have conditions to their love
