      Where'd that come from? The gratitude is never offered to family members who work and provide money. That's what was said. Why would you need to thank them? That's family's job.

        Chinese culture is a frantic race to work, work, work so you can become an ATM for your family members who never offer a word of thanks.

        You must see how that comes off pretty badly.

          Working adults providing for the rest of the family is simply expected. It's not something out of the ordinary that people feel the need to offer thanks for.

            so you can become an ATM

            never offer a word of thanks.

            That seems pretty clearly intended to be read negatively.
