Why do some people admire Latin American cultures but not want to be from or live in those countries?

Life is just better in the West. The traffic is horrible, the noise never stops and I will repeat myself, the crime. Terrible crime.

I love Latin America, I grew up there but have to admit quality of life is better in the west. There are laws that protect the workers and it’s all together more comfortable, less crime too.

Nah, I’m better far away from all of that. But I really do love it there, as a tourist.

I told my 13-year-old daughter that she should never start a fight, but has my permission to end it. She got suspended for ending a fight that some other girl picked with her by hitting her then retreating. How do I handle the school’s response?

Did you know it’s normal over there to work 6 times a week like 10 hours per day? I love my heritage but in the West I work 5 times a week 40 hours, including lunch. It’s also normal to have 10, 20 minutes lunch.
