All my life I've heard "no boyfriend." Studies first, no time for dating. I'm almost done with college, still not allowed to have a boyfriend. I never thought I would ever hear my mother actually be okay with me having a boyfriend, so when I first saw this video and got to the part where the mother started pestering her son about getting a girlfriend, I was like, "Yeah, right, like that's ever going to happen." Well, guess what? Now I'm starting to get, "You're so smart and pretty. If no boy likes you, then something's wrong." Wait...what?!?!?! **mind explosions**

Dare lord my friend last year was from China and he knew English so that year on the last term (6 weeks) I out beat him in history. Beating him he told his parents a student in his history class out scored him. The next day I walk in the class and his parents where there and asked for the student who out scored there son and he pointed to me. His parents yelled in Chinese and I had no clue what they where saying so I told my friend tell them I never study he did and his parents to him to tell me to study. It's true

My family is the same way, only the main group demanding babies are the grandparents, my parents have added an extra step after college which is the "get wealthy" step, where we have to buy a house.
