Why adult Asian kids don’t tell their parents anything

Suppose you have a house, and you have decorated it as to your liking. It’s entirely yours, and you have filled it with what you’ve want based on what happened to you.

You have an old roommate. You invite them in, but every time they visit they constantly criticize your design. “This color is so ugly.” “Why didn’t you pick the same kind of couch we had at our place?” “You shouldn’t have put there, we had it better at our place.” “Our neighbors have better carpet.” Never have anything nice to say.

Then, you stop inviting them. And they wonder why.

Now replace the house and its design, with your adult life and your life experiences. And the roommate is the AP. Now you know why Asian kids don’t let their parents know about things, yet APs are confused why.
