[quote=APAULT,271633]As u asked and were answered in another thread - your boyfriend can easily enter HK for 90 days - so you can both travel there ok. I understand your difficulty with parents now that you have crossed cultures. It is very similar on the mainland where in some ways there is a bigger generation gap than between parents and kids in the west. The young people are adopting new ideas (but far from radical in western terms) but their parents are steeped in tradition. Two types: traditional Chinese and the hard times of the last 50 years. Change is very rapid for the 'older' people here. In many cases it is easier for an old westerner (like me) to relate to students than for parents. We understand the thinking of the young as we have had kids in the west, but the young here are so well behaved and polite they are 'easier' than our own kids were! Good luck with generation gap difficulties - try to be patient (and you aren't always right!).[/quote]
