She says that her thinking has always been that once she marry, she will let her younger brother to take care of the whole family. She will only care for her mum and dad as thay may not have many years left. Now she is the one who carrys the burden of the whole family and she is tired.
Issit too good to be truth after reading the post by so many bros here.  time will tell...
From what i see so far, there is only 1 useless person in her family. Her eldest bro who is not working and keep pestering her dad to sell of their land in Mekong. They are all catholic and her dad is real strict. No gambling problem in family, no rental to pay. The only thing is that her dad is old and somehow now become a 'fan lau wan tong'...  |
Yes, only time will tell. But one thing to note is that other siblings will often go thru the parents to demand money from the sister that is married to foreigner. My wife told me the same thing about caring for her parents only, but often, her other sisters and brothers will ask the mother to request for more mone from us to help them. For example, my wife's 2nd elder sister got a piece of land from her mother and she wanted to build a house on it. Building cost is around US$3000, and she requested my mother-in-law to ask me for the money to help her build the house. I declined and my mother in law got angry saying i `no use'.
Such request thru parents will surface very often.
