I had a tough time with my daughter when she was in her early teens but by the time she reached 14, miraculously she began to change for the better. She turned 17 just less than 2 weeks ago and I have to say, I'm very lucky to be her mom. Of course there are still some stubborn streak in her but apart from that, I couldn't ask for more.
Now, with my son 15 going on 16 year-old son, it's an entirely different story. At times he could be rude ( only towards me and his sis ) but most of the time he's really sweet. However, he has no initiative to help around the house unless I raised my voice or I'm in a bad mood. I've always wonder if he's like that because of my own doing ( he always get away with murder ) or because he has always an older sister to do things for him and inevitably make him to heavily rely on her.
I don't think our children owe us anything but in Asian culture, it could be very different.
In Confucian philosophy, filial piety is a virtue of respect for one's father, elders and ancestors.
You won't believe this!! I'm in Kuala Lumpur now, at my mom's and she brought me to this newly-opened cafe that specializes in pie, sweet and savoury ones. Guess what I saw there!!
Same ingredient that you mentioned...but I ordered something else.... Had had enough of bananas for the day
