The 70 tradition
My dad's birthday passed by recently and it was after the fact that I realized from some of our elderly that it's supposedly Chinese tradition to have the children treat parents to a "big meal deal" when they turn 70?!? Anyway, we did not follow the tradition but had a great night nonetheless.
As much as I value some Chinese traditions and try my best to give respect to my elderly, I truly believe that not all traditions must be followed as long as we respect the people we love and show that in our own ways. So if the main character was happy in the end, then that's all that matters.
