💡 Cultural Insight: Family situation / family burdens

In interpersonal communication, Chinese people often attribute personal difficulties to their family of origin or burdens from elder relatives (such as an elderly father still farming), using this as a socially acceptable excuse to deflect blame or as a way to show vulnerability and elicit sympathy.
