Jana B.MemberMark, in some parts of the United States, there are people who don’t mix socially with other people once they leave the workplace. At the workplace, there are city, state and federal laws in place that ‘govern’ people’s behavior to some extent, so they often will mix freely there, but social functions can make some people uncomfortable because those same laws that protect them somewhat at work usually do not apply in those cases. They are usually afraid that someone is going to say or do something to embarrass or make them angry, so most of them take the easier road and opt out, instead of showing up and learning to be with people of other races in a social situation.

Jana B.MemberMost of western society don’t feel that their parents are a burden, but they are treated differently than in the eastern societies. In the west, it’s customary for the parents and grown children to have separate lives from one another, even after the parents are elderly and become ill. That’s why there are ‘social security’ systems, nursing homes, assisted living, etc. so that ideally the elderly has a choice as to how they want to live. In the east, there are no such systems available on a large scale for their elderly, and their society ditctates that the children of the parents are honor-bond to take care of them as well as their own family. Each system has its pros and cons.
