This communication is antagonizing to him. Your point will never come across and you challenging him creates more toxicity. All he wants is appreciation, so show him that and be passive to the rest. You have spoken your mind, he’s heard you. He has spoken his. There’s no reason to keep having the conversations like this because they will all end the same way. You are wiser than him and that’s all you need to know. You don’t have to keep challenging it. It will just exhaust you both.

Damn, people are always telling children to be more understanding, but why doesn't anyone tell parents to be more understanding? It's EVERYONE'S first time living and kids did not get to choose if they should come to this world or not. I have empathy for all parents - even my own toxic parents and I'm in therapy to heal those intergenerational wounds - but at some point you have to realize, we may not be responsible for our past, but we are responsible for our present. Parents and adults have to do better. It is not the sole responsibility of children/kids to be more patient and understanding of unhealthy and unkind behavior.

Love to see how you’re trying to break cycles, and have communication. It’s hard in a hmong housing, but don’t forget to also consider how your parents may have grown up. They show love how they were shown love, even if it’s not the type of love you want and need. It’s your parent’s first time being alive too, and it’s very true that you don’t know until you have your own. Not to say your feelings aren’t valid, but it sounds like everyone has pain and is hurting, even your dad. You can hear the pain in his voice as well as yours. Hoping all goes well and that your family heals and finds a middle ground. ❤️❤️

A lot of Hmong parents are living the old fashion life that their OWN parents lived back from laos/thailand. Unfortunately like all these comments mentioned, parents like this won’t change. They’re too far in. This is the only thing they’re used to and KNOW. You communicated so well and he still wasn’t understanding and that’s okay ❤️. Sometimes you just have to sit back and let yourself think “they won’t ever change” and take it as it is. As long as you don’t treat your loved ones or future kids this way, you should be okay 🫶🏼. We have to break the cycle and you’re doing it already ❤️🩹.

I don't even know you but wanted to say I'm proud of you. You voiced your pain, and reactions like your dad's are why so many parents have children who resent them. I know it's already so scary as an adult to be able to remain calm and articulate, and you did it. That in itself takes so much courage and watching this video actually brought me to tears. I wish you the best.

My parents are like this too. They will never see your side because they have so much of their own trauma they’ve carried their whole lives. The worst part is that they think they’re unloved or unappreciated for doing the bare minimum. The best thing to do is to step away. I understand what you’re going through, so hang in there and do what’s best for you.

Unfortunately, they will never change or learn. Once you become of age and can work and live on your own, you’re going to get a real chance at life. I have been on my own as soon as I turned 18 and I never looked back. I carried it with me even after I left and into my 20s. I’m 33 now and I still get sad but I don’t let it hold me down anymore. You got this!!
