From what I gather, you mentioned in your first post that "[b]where young people like me should go out and have fun with friends and count down to the new year. so i thought, since she is going out with her boyfriend, then i be the good boy and sacrifice my new year eve and spend it with my mother, accompany her. "
Wouldnt this imply that if your sister had volunteered to go out with your mum in the first place, you would have opted to party with your friends? Is that being filial?
And again, I question you for the need to tell others that your sister is from a JC. Was there even a need to do so in the first place? What are you trying to insinuate? [/b]
tsk...
i tell everyone she was from a jc is to emphasize on my point on why i don't like jc students.
anyway jc is not the crux of the topic,so i suggest if u have nothing to contribute with regards to the topic, then go away. -
But isnt that what you are implying? YOu said this---> "you know i wouldn't have a problem accomapanying mum if my sister had followed along...the fact that she rather stay at home and watch tv pisses me off..."Originally posted by R3SsH|n:u are wrong. i am not trying ask people whether i am filial or not.i want views on this incident. if my sister went along with my mother, yes i would have gone and meet my friends. so u say if i go party with my friends, i am not filial?then how about the thousands of people on the streets of orchard road last night?

So now you are employing double standards. Its ok for you to go out and party and let your sister accompany your mother, but its NOT ok for your sister to watch TV at home while you accompany your mother.
And If JC isnt the crux of the topic, why bring it in in the first place? So now you finally admint its irrelavant to the topic. Good. -
My post may sound harsh to the TS, but its just my opinion..
Going with your mother because of obligation doesn't make you a fillial son, but rather, you come across as fake, that you wanna potray that you are a good son.
Don't blame your sister. You should have confirmed with her earlier, rather than get pissed off at her when u discover only later that she is staying at home. Don't assume anything.
And I don't see what your sister's level of educatiion has anything to do with this incident. By making this point, it just makes you sound dumber.
You should have just gone ahead for your celebrations. Ur mum won't have hold it against you anyway. -
well, u're definitely getting our views on this incident.. =P
just that i think they're not to your favour.
and i agree with shade.. its really double standard lor..
i think if u dump your mum with your sis, she will also be thinking the same thing.. why my brother can go out party, but i hv to be stuck here and be labelled as unfilial if i don't want to join my mum but rather watch tv... -

shade, u just want to add the jc part into the topic don't you? seriously, look into the mirror when u say someone is discriminating others...
i want to add she was from a jc. i am no lying and that is a fact. how come u so protective of jc students? guilty conscience? -
no lei, i ask her since she not going out with her boyfriend, why don't she go downstairs...Originally posted by nanren4ever:My post may sound harsh to the TS, but its just my opinion..

nope, i think by mentioning her level of education shows she should at least have a sense of maturity.
she wouldn't, but i would. -

GUYS i say forget it, TS is just too childish to understand our POV.
If u think filial piety means obligation, then go ahead and be a filial son.
And the fact u bothered to point out that your sis was from a JC shows u are trying to insinuate something. IMO u just don't know enough about JC people. I was from a poly myself. And no I do not have a guilty conscience. -
i already told her, since she originally wanted to go out with her boyfriend, then she go lor...i have no quelmes..Originally posted by dumbdumb!:well, u're definitely getting our views on this incident.. =P

but she end up staying at home and didn't even offer to accompany her... -
Again I say, What relevance does your sister actions has on your decision? If you are fillial, you would accompany your mum out whethere your sister is free or not. That is the main point.Originally posted by R3SsH|n:jeez...u don't get it don't you. she suppose to have a date. fine, she can go away and spend it with her boyfriend while i will accompany mum. yet eventually she didn't and yet instead spend the time watching tv. if she is not going out, at least say so and offer to follow mum, instead she rather watch tv and say going out with mum is boring.

The fact that you are complaining about missing out your party with your friends reveals the true reason as to why you resnt your sister not accompanying your mother.
You want your sister to accompany your mother so that you can go out partying because you would feel satisfied that somebody is doing the job of taking care of your mother.
And again I say, Why the NEED to include the JC part? You yourself admitted that it was unnecessary to this debate. And you have yet to answer this question.
