You're such a filial son, I've seen many others who don't really give a shit about their parents.

All the best and good luck in trying to convince your dad to let your mom go though, because it's probably not the monetary issue. The thought of it is really sweet of you though.

Thanks man. lol tbh I really didn't care about my parents until only recently. I started thinking about it for a while and thought I should be a better son. I always stressed them out in the past so ;p.

And then when I saw my mom cry for the first time today that pretty much sealed the deal for me.

Thanks a lot for the support everyone, I will keep you guys updated in the near future. =]

i feel for you, having your mom cry her heart out and feeling helpless trying to comfort her is a terrible feeling.

extended family would probably side with the dad anyway, cos of subservience relations between nuclear families (as long as the dad wasn't a douche in front of the other family members).

This is great of you to do, and I wish you the best of luck

Spending money/time to your parent(s) is not right move yet. When your parents are over 65 or so then its okay to spend more time (or money) with them. If you do this without your dad knowing it, this thing sparks up attention and might resolve some heated arguments (hidden affair thoughts and such). Better thing is to use your money to yourself or save it. Then use it later on something else you like.

I hope the best for you and your family, your mom especially. It's so nice to see you care for her as much as you do. You're a good son. The world needs more like you.

Awww......

I'm really touched my this story. It sounds like the bond between you and your mom are really close, and that's something I can totally appreciate.

Good luck with sending her to Korea! I think your dad's just being a dick.

heres what I always wonder about. I have tons of asian friends but they arent QUITE as subservient as korean culture appears to be from the outside, but they are subservient none the less (especially the girls)

I just wonder what would happen if one day they dont take it anymore. Would they be beaten? So they beat you to prove their point......fuck them they arent worth your time anyway. Do they shun you? Again......just dont talk to them anymore. Maybe im a bit cold but IMO some people have shitty families and the fear they put into you is what keeps you submissive. IMO it would be better to be alone then to be around a bunch of pig headed assholes.
How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal and you have to be willing to work for it. Jim Valvano

Your a great person. Damn nice to see that people aren't yelling at their moms, telling them to go to hell etc like they do here.

You probably need alot of money to put someone up in Korea for three months don't you?

Also, I agree with most people in the thread. While an amazing idea, you're playing with fire. You could get in huge shit from your Dad. It's probably more of a control issue then it is a financial one..

I think your mom is being pretty ridiculous needing to go to korea to be taught how to play an organ to be honest. If your mom wants to go to take organ lessons in korea why doesn't she get a job. My mom is 56 and works 40+ hours a week as a nurse which is a very difficult job especially at her age.

And are you sure your mom would even take that much money? There is absolutely no way my parents would accept that much money.
