I think you are totally right. The family relationship is very strong in Thailand. In Holland you leave the house when you are ready for it en you will start a relationship. When your parents are getting older and they need nursing they go to rest homes. Normally they do not live with their children anymore after the children have left their parents house. The woman i met in bkk is 37 years old and the influance from her parents is still very strong. Sometimes it is difficult to understand whats going on. Last year I was with her in Phuket to spend our holiday together. We would stay there for 2 weeks. After 1 week her parents called from bkk. She had to come back at ones and .....she did go back to bkk. For me thats difficult to accept. I go for 3 weeks to Thailand to see her and here parents are spoiling everything. It was not because off healthy problems.
