 It's very difficult to find a way to create your own identity but to be able to be respectful of the culture you were brought up with . Me, I am still a lost case, I think I still don't know how to create my own identity, it's a struggle every single day. If you grew up with parents like mine I would love to meet you, so here it goes. My parents are strict and very overprotective, they question every single thing I do, they need to know were I am every single minute of the day. But out of both of my parents my dad is the worst he is the type of mean who believes that women are responsible for everything that has to do with the house, that they have to stay home, he is a perfectionist, but at the same time he encourages me and my sisters to keep studying and go to college get a career and graduate,
    This is what makes it difficult for me to break out but I want to do it. If there was a way to be in the middle it would be when you listen to your parents pay attention to them and you try not to make them feel terrible, but at the same time you are honest and you tell them that you want to be you, and that if that means going a different way then what your parents taught you they are going to have to understand. You have to communicate with them, and let them know who you really want to be, you have to let them know that your going to try to follow their culture but at the same time your be your true self no matter what, That what being in the middle has to be like, how it's supposed to feel.
