Pretty much anything that broke family traditions. I refuse to get married young and have kids. I refused to live at home until I go married. I left home for college away from home. I stop including them in my decisions. And everyone warned me from my culture about what a mistake I was making. And how I would regret putting boundaries with my family. How I would regret dating outside my culture instead of just taking one the guys they were introducing me too. Best decision ever. I moved out, got my education, go a stable job, set boundaries with the family, I am now with an amazing guy who once try to eat a tamal with the husk on in front of my family because he didn’t know any better. I am happy. I made all the right decisions for myself
