The_Gaji
Eh, I get you are trying to humanize them but the dad chugging alcohol is a bit much. Maybe like having a one of those stress squishy things to manage it, as the way it is currently is just cringy (he basically admits to being hypocritical but it doesn't stop the fact he is being extremely hypocritical - saying you shouldn't drink as a coping mechanism before downing a bottle of soju as a coping mechanism)
so basically she had a panick attack. And while I respect the advice his father gave him in not trying to find comfort in alcohol, it's kinda hard taking that advice seriously when he drinks in front of jaya. idk I just feel that this conversation is kinda forced in, and with that i mean that the conversation and the emotions said and displayed don't add up or are not in sync.
well...... i get it, but not my cup of tea. Jason acts too much as child, even though he is technically 32 years old.. why so many emotions.. you could blame it on his hormones as a child making him that way.. I would like a character growth, a really big one on that part.. and to clarify, I'm not questioning Master Gaji's ability as an author, it's just the character that I don't find very likeable as a personal preference..
I see nothing wrong with discipline in the realm of children living up to their potential..especially with everything else being provided, their is no excuse for you not to excel. Maybe I am not grasping what you mean when you say beatings but the only thing I saw crazy was the dad giving the child a shiner, that's abusive. This came off as them being immature.."they" did not have the resources to raise a child and continue going to school, their "parents" had those resources. If they felt so strongly about the abortion then they would have left just as they did when they were pregnant with Jason. Set's a horrible example as they just up and ran away from their problems. They need therapy. I lost all respect for Jason's parents after this chapter.
Almost all asian kid grew up in ass whooping, best way for discipline. raise your hand if you got your ass whoop for having low grades or you did something stupid? đ đ But am not saying that I favor beating kids. if you beat a kid for a stupid reason aside from discipline, you need to schedule a check in the head. If you beat a kid for having a low grade for not studying, thats correct for me. But if you beat a kid for having a low grade for having a low IQ, then the oneâs needed beating is you!
