Thread topic kind of aligns with my life as I am an Asian American guy, but my traditional Asian parents always shunned the idea of me becoming a pilot and forced me to study programming in university or else they wouldn't help fund my tuition. I am now looking into flight schools

The Airlines require minimum 4years college and with the degree I have a job to pay for flight tuitions now so college was not a waste.

I understand it's not that way over in Asia, still very old fashioned.
Back in 2000 a Japanese Mom and her two daughters (ages 3 and 5) spent the summer with us. The Father worked for Toyota and had a chance for a transfer to a job in the United States. He wanted his girls to become fluent in English and to be able to live in the USA where they'd have a lot more options career wise.
