I don't think anyone is saying Shay ha...@ Anon. I don't think anyone is saying Shay has it all, as we know she doesn't, her relationship with her own family isn't great. But I guess the reason we warm to her so much is because she's trying to make amends, we 'see' the struggle and credit her for that. And it is a bit cynical to say she's attentive towards her inlaws and not her own family. But isn't it obvious why? She has to make the best out of her new situation. And I am sure she'd be just as attentive to her own if they would see/meet her. <br /><br />Of course we don't really know the real extent of the story but I don't think Shay leaving her family demeans her character.<br /><br />Also, agree it would be interesting to see if the roles were reversed but guys don't end up in situations like that. Mothers are usually more accepting of their son's choices/faults than their daughters. Kind of the harsh reality of the Asian coomunity.asikhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13929564609184703033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048953.post-73530473236334387302009-12-02T15:33:28.315+00:002009-12-02T15:33:28.315+00:00Anon,

In fact to call it a sacrifice, as if it's something she's chosen to do deliberately, is a bit insulting.<br /><br />That's not to say that I disagree with the idea that a person can't be everything and of course there are things missing in Shay; perhaps she's not as professional or career minded as her peers or the most academically intelligent or socially outgoing. Whether or not these things are relevant is a matter of personal preference - it's clear that for a lot of us they simply aren't.Shakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13657830810835591711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048953.post-37935329779382963112009-12-02T13:03:20.853+00:002009-12-02T13:03:20.853+00:00She finds "it an honour to massage her in-law...She finds "it an honour to massage her in-laws head/feet or even thread uncle's nose" but has no contact with her own parents. <br /><br />No woman can do it all: be beautiful, undemanding, smiley, do the housework, have ambition (but not too much, mind, that's unattractive), rub her in-laws feet etc. Something has to give. In this case, it's her relationship with her own parents. I hope no man would think this sacrifice worth it. <br /><br />I wonder what people's opinions would be if the roles were reversed and he had no contact with his family and putting all effort into his wife's family. Would he be admired so? <br /><br />P.S.
