It seems allot of people are facing this problem if they are abroad and return to pakistan to settle.
my friend said that his mom is fine with it, she just wants to see him happy and he has been looking miserable lately.
his dad is pretty upset, he told me that his dad thinks he will not make it on his own in usa, he will work $5/hour (poor job/and live miserably). and he is not serious about study. basically his dad not happy with it, but he said his dad is letting him go if he wants.
i think he really wanted to go b4 his talk with his dad, but now he is scared that he might really fail in usa and be screwed both ways then.
any thoughts?
@faisi001 - first you mention you were brainwashed by your parents. I think you are right that if my friend had kids there in usa, they maybe not respect him, but he is 20 and he is not thinking about that. you are rite about getting into trouble in usa, no family there, and no religious celebrations, but he is not much religious (ive seen ppl from abroad not much religious trend?). you can get all luxuries in pk, but what if ur not happy. he lives in lahore defence, i went to his house he has servants like driver and maid, he doesnt have to even lift a finger but he is still miserable and sad. what good are those luxries if cant buy happiness? i dont know what ur talking about running away like chicken, if u live in another country and spend your whole year and cant adjust, would u still be chicken for not toughing it out?
