Well I have a Chinese mom, I am half Chinese. And yes it's just what some of them do. I still think it's mean though, He used to hit me with like a stick thing if I talked back.
As far as the groin hit, I never got that though. She threatened to do that once but it never happened.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
