However, one issue that continues to plague the country is the staggering number of car accidents and fatalities that occur on its roads. This problem is not new and has been around for years, but it is becoming increasingly severe as the country modernizes and more people hit the roads. In this post, we will explore the causes of car accidents in Taiwan and why the enforcement of traffic laws is crucial to improving the situation.

  What am I doing in Taiwan? Attention foreigners living in Asia If you have stumbled upon my blog, then definitely you’re probably somebody who is living in Asia. Maybe you were wondering what you’re doing here too. Asia is just a wonderful place with an exciting culture. I think that for me, as a North American, it’s tough to describe to people back home.

I think she’s got some issues she hasn’t dealt with because she has stayed away from her parents for so long. She did a master's degree in America, and she’s from Taiwan. So the profoundly ingrained issues she dealt with a long time ago haven’t been dealt with properly. And I think that that issue has metamorphosized into something toxic. I haven’t lived with my parents for a long time, so I’m just going to talk to you guys about my view of the situation as a third party with a psychology degree and how I think that my friend should deal with the situation. I’m not a professional, but if I offer my two cents, hopefully, it’ll bring some insight into what you can do too. Toxic Parenting in General We all know that parenting is a tremendous job. You have to take care of another ...
