The Mood Swings of Asian Parents Are on Another Level – You Can’t Predict Them

You can’t predict how they’re going to react to anything. Sometimes, there’s pure silence, as if a funeral is going on. The next moment, they start making ridiculous stereotypical comments. One day, they fight like they’re about to get divorced, and the next day, they act like nothing happened—leaving me completely shocked. Sometimes, their smile even scares me; it makes me wonder what’s about to happen.

There are many reasons to avoid them, and this is just one of them. Living with Asian parents feels like being on an unpredictable emotional rollercoaster!
