Meanwhile my parents tells me how much they had to suffer in China and how much things have improved and constantly tells me to “be grateful” because I have more variety of food to eat and “shouldn’t be picky about food” and “complaining”

Also tells me about many people being undocumented and that I “should be grateful for being so lucky of having legal status in the US”

(I literally never said I was ungrateful lol, but its this constant guilt-trippin every time my mom think I’m “being ungrateful”)
