Family members worked together as one unit, and we respected ourelders. Upon arriving in the United States, I discovered a very different world, where children speak as they wish totheir parents and at times even treat them with disrespect. This different world eventually led to some difficultiesbetween me and my parents. When I was eighteen, a couple of my friends moved out of their parents' house and intoan apartment of their own. They asked me to move in with them. These friends were born in the United States, andtheir upbringing was less conservative than mine. Their parents considered it perfectly acceptable for them to move outand live independently at eighteen. But when I spoke to my parents, it was clear they did not want me to leave home.My friends couldn't understand this and they kept telling me to move out anyway. I felt caught between my friends andmy parents. I felt that my friends were doing something that was socially acceptable and that my parents were beingold-fashioned and not behaving as Americans should behave. For me, after many sleepless nights, my obligation as adaughter overcame my yearning for independence. I realized that my parents' unwillingness for me to move out wasbecause of their love for me. I also realized that if my friends were true friends, they would accept my decision. I toldthem I'd decided to stay with my parents. Most of them accepted my decision. Now, looking back, I feel that I made aright decision.
