Privilege or Right?

Over the years, I've heard a lot of stories of how children hate or blame their parents for not sending them overseas for further education. Most of the time, the parents wasn't able to afford the high expenses of sending their children overseas, and sometimes, of other reasons.

Their parents brought them to this world, fed them, clothe them, provide them the basic education (up to tertiary at least!). They work really hard to provide for the family and yet, they still get blamed for being unable to send their children overseas? I mean, what's wrong with these people! How ungrateful they are. I really wonder if they will in turn provide the same amount of care and provide for their parents when they get old. They have the cheek to demand and even hate their parents?! These people make me angry.

If they really have the capabilities of going for further studies, they can either get a scholarship, or get a bank loan and pay off themselves when they start working after they got their "toilet paper". Don't demand from parents! Even if they have loads of money, they have the choice of giving it to the child, or keeping it for themselves. What makes him / her think that they can use THEIR money, which him / her have most probably used a lot for the past 18 to 20 years. To me, these people are just spoilt and narrow minded. They are so used to getting what they want. Hello! It's a privilege ok!!

Grrrr... they really make my blood boil. I wonder if they still know what is respect and fillial piety. For those people who are hating their parents, please, one day, if your parents are 6 feet underground, you can sit beside their graves and go on blaming them.
