Long-term emotional damage ;) Thanks for another relatable and hilarious rendering of The Days of Our Asian Lives. Lol 😂
Other than playing music, they enjoy parading their kids "skills. " Most emotional damage was asking me to do an oratorical piece in front of the family while they are having lunch 😂😂😂
Oh my gosh, every time a family member comes over, my parents make me play something on my violin! It's the worst, especially when I've just started learning a piece!
Steven I can't believe you just made me have a PTSD flashback. My white 80 year old Grandma did that too with the chicken, and since it's Grandma she doesn't have the energy to really get angry at you, just sighs in disappointment and so you feel 4x the Emotional Damage, because not only did you let her down but now you also don't get to have her fried chicken.
Now I feel bad asking my childhood Asian friend if he could play piano in front of his mother. The look of sheer terror he gave me is still burned into my mind. Emotional damage.
Now I understand why I like Panda E so much, 10 minutes after leaving, car door=death. Heart attack, coupled with EMOTIONAL DAMAGE. No cure, father hitting me with "what's 7x3?" at 9pm.
@@StevenHe as a veteran Asian child I was beaten for 30 to 40 years of my life time now I am a successful person I was beaten with a stick and it made me stronger and I won't be a failure now im about to turn 18 soon
Your Failure Management Program is so successful/effective, my asian parents were following your tips before this video was even created. (12 years ago)
That face off at 2:00 between a scared son and a dad with a horrifyingly straight face straight up gave me PTSD. That calm before the strom used to be the scariest thing ever. Beautiful acting in the scene specifically Steven. 👍
he's already getting into acting.... I couldn't imagine how hard it is acting to nothing.... your partner in acting is yourself Steven..... "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, My name is Steven with a V"
The calm might really be the most harmful...wasn't so funny, when my mother didn't answer 😅 I never knew if she just didn't heard me or if it was the calm 😱🤦♀️
Can I just say, that the unfreezing the chicken part is very effective and relatable. My parents didn't show up early but when I would freak the hell out. I remember having to quickly unfreeze ground turkey meat and opened the package, put the meat in the bag and microwaved it. I used the excuse of "I threw a knife into the sink and it cut the package."
At least you don't have to have the whole meal cooked and served by the time everyone is ready to eat which could be anytime within 2 hours of the average...
Unfreezing meat takes ages though even if you just let it sit outside for a while. We'd just put it on a plate to catch the juices and move it from the freezer to the fridge the evening before. Bam, problem solved
4:37 “what key is that? F-?” 🤣 sickest burn ever. This video reinforces my suspicions that my mom is secretly Asian. And also Hispanic, but that’s a different story. The only thing white about my mom is that she’s literally allergic to seasoning. 🤦🏼♀️

I relate to all, but the last one hits on a different level. When performing a piano piece to the fellow Asian relatives I should remember from when I was a baby, some basic roasts include ‘not being musical enough,’ ‘playing for too long,’ not playing Fur Elise, or them simply sighing and then proceeding to scroll on their phone. 🤠

My Mom used to do the "play music for our guests" trick on us all the time. But we weren't Asian. Then recently, she got a DNA test and found out she has a Chinese gene. Asian level unlocked!
I like how "extra loud footsteps" are just regular footsteps on a carpet because it makes me think that they were filming it in a place where they couldn't freely make loud sounds 😂
Feeling a little down until I hear the words "Emotional Damage", then I realize that things could be much worse. Thanks for the emotional lift Steven He. 😆
When my white friends don't get Asians, I just direct them to your channel. Everything you have shared is the most accurate summation of the Asian experience and identity in a concise short video nutshell
Im half Asian, but my father was white and he got full custody. Somehow I still got the full asian experience, the frozen chicken, the music example happened after I learned a second instrument,
@@dreamfire9661 I'm sure some of them can be, but you can definitely tell it's not the norm to beat your kids here or "abuse" them in any way. In America and Europe there are laws that protect children from that kind of thing, you touch a hair on a child's head and social services or CPS will be called so quickly, whereas Asians-well in my experience Chinese parents anyway, they whoop you and it's just part of the culture, part of raising you to be 'proper', our parents will just say "it's for your own good / it's bc we care". A very large percentage of us were raised that way and it's not really weird to most of us. Whereas here you know it's very unheard of bc if it happens, the person is very traumatized by it and it's an extremely huge deal, and they will either be very reluctant to talk about it, or some of them will make it their whole personality (that they were abused as kids/had a fked up childhood) just to come off as unique or edgy. It also causes fractures in their family. They will move away from their parents and cut off contact because they wonder how they could harm them as kids in such a horrible hateful way. They'll think their parents were horrible people too. Being Chinese, like yes it's still "emotional and mental damage" lol, but like it's almost no different from like falling off a swing when you were a kid. You kind of just unconsciously accept it as normal, and yeah you joke about it like that.
Pro Tip: If you're child did something wrong, after you come home from work, say absolutely nothing. The pure amount of guilt and pressure will lead to your failure just telling you what you did wrong. And then you can throw the slipper.
As someone who is still not an adult, but also not asian, this is very validating. Thank you Steven: your course on emotional damage has helped me heal some of my own lol
This is my daily life with one parent being Asian and the other mexican, its has its pros and cons,its just that the cons out way the pros but a planet
The family dinner scene really hit home. As a full-time Asian, whenever we had a family dinner w/ friends of my parents, they made me do Taekwondo in front of them. At one point I fell and they told me my black belt was fake and I should lose 10 pounds 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Even more advanced emotional damage technique: When you get home and the child hasn't done what s/he is supposed to, just sigh and shake your head. The child will freak out on their own from their already massive guilt complex.
Great lesson! You know it "sticks" when you are a rich Nobel Prize winning, Olympic running, Astronaut and still one day your brain randomly brings up the Emotional Damage and your friend finds you in the fetal position under the fitted sheet of your bed. Parent job well done. Love your vids!
The counter solution/attack to this weapon is "NOT GIVING A SHIT" and directly but politely saying "NO" at first and sticking aggssively to it. It's effective if you can establish your worth or prove that you are more knowledgeable than them most of the time, at most of the things.
@@raiyannasir8609 When you are under 16 and gotta live with your Asian parents, saying stuff like that is a one way ticket to getting the shit smacked outta you.
I'm from a Spanish upbringing and this one hit WAY to close to home to make it through the entire guitar solo without pausing it twice to walk off some of this anxiety. Thanks for the memories Steven, which is also my dad's name!! THANKS BRO!

THANK YOU SO MUCH STEVEN. MY MOM TOLD ME TO PUT THE LEFTOVER RICE IN THE FREEZER AND I COMPLETELY FORGOT BUT AT 1:09 YOU HELPED ME REMEMBER YOU JUST SAVED ME FROM A BEATING
THE LOUD CAR DOOR SLAM STILL GETS ME. Also, speaking as someone who was classically trained in cello since 7 with orchestra, never could go to recess to practice, after homework practice for 2 hours and an additional after school private tutoring with the pressure to perform for solo concerts and my grandparents... Also, day camp for orchestra! I have so much emotional damage... I did not mention sports and clubs either. ...I guess my parents were successful.
Literally my exact same story, but with piano. My parents made me take the Suzuki method starting at age 4. So. Much. Emotional. Damage. I was so terrified of my teacher that I’d fake getting nosebleeds during lessons just so I could take refuge in the bathroom for a few precious minutes. 🙃
Hey man, I just discovered your videos after losing a job and they have really lifted my spirits. I have to move back in with my mom until I find a job and although I'm not Asian, I grew up in a fairly strict household and your videos are really relatable and make me laugh. Thanks for lifting my spirits and making me laugh in this hard time when I feel like a big FAAAILUWe! :)
As a professional half-Asian I can confirm that playing all the instruments is a requirement, I have and still play cello,violin,piano, guitar and trumpet. I will also force this upon my child or children.
As an Indian, i find this so relatable, everytime i see your videos, i am able to connect,. Like the family dinner or "cause i want you " by asian parents. So relatable, very happy to see someone from Asia going this big. Respect from India💕💕💕🙌🙌
I have heard how Indian parents can really pile on the pressure and guilt when they think it's time for their kid to get married. Can you confirm? Do you know someone else who can?
I lost it at the thawing the chicken part. I think we’ve all been there. The guitar and singing brought tears to my eyes I was laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣 well done Steven! We love the Failure Management content. 💙
Make Failure Management a company, it’s for good Asian parenting for money, it makes the failures (those things you call children) doctors thanks to the good parenting
I like how Steven's father had already bought Steven a guitar (Behind the blue chair in Steven's room) in addition to signing him up for lessons. What a good father!
Don't know if to laugh or cry. Poor kids. Saw this at a provincial music festival my son was in. He was in the top 8. He was the only non Asian there. So, the first girl went up, trying so hard, she was literally crying on stage. She sounded beautiful but I don't think her mother was happy because she didn't win. My son didn't win either but I'm very proud of him. He was blown away by how good everyone was. Sounded incredible. And the day before we were in a hotel room before the concert, I really thought that one girl was playing her violin for at least 5 hours straight practicing.
The worst feeling is when you start playing your instrument in front of your guests, and they start yawning/looking confused, and your parents give you "The look" Even more emotional damage when they say,"play something your (the guest) understands!"
This dude has the most quotable moments out of all videos on TH-cam

My Mom used to do the "play music for our guests" trick on us all the time. But we weren't Asian. Then recently, she got a DNA test and found out she has a Chinese gene. Asian level unlocked!
I love how we progressively see the improvements to Steven’s living situations with each upload. Man’s got a hallway now, -sniff- he making it.
HAHAHA yes you guys watched me from beside I made minimum wage
I see his dad still doesn't have that Rolex tho
Yes, Ik i wasn't the only one who noticed that!
@@a3don what about the convertible mercedes
Derrick F A I L U R E
that "because i said so" really unlocked some childhood trauma
the defrosting the chicken also hit home pretty hard
"because I said so" was in the handbook for all paretns
Also that one:
"-But mom, everyone is doing that! Why cant I?
-You arent everyone."
LOL 😅🤣
I like how "extra loud footsteps" are just regular footsteps on a carpet because it makes me think that they were filming it in a place where they couldn't freely make loud sounds 😂
Oh i don't care I know my neighbors already hate me hahahahah
Don't forget, in slippers, making each step extra quiet.
Eating while watching Steven is dangerous. You never know when you might start laughing too hard and spill your food all over.
And also....you have to go to toilet and pee first, otherwise you.....😊

Feeling a little down until I hear the words "Emotional Damage", then I realize that things could be much worse. Thanks for the emotional lift Steven He. 😆

The internet needs a 10 hour version of Steven trying to unfreeze a chicken by breathing on it
@sannio komi Me too I wanna voice like him
The dad's smile while he sings kills me 😂
LOL Props to the camera person trying to catch up with Steven running around the house while keeping him in frame.
When my white friends don't get Asians, I just direct them to your channel. Everything you have shared is the most accurate summation of the Asian experience and identity in a concise short video nutshell
To be honest I’m a Asian and it isn’t really like this, but it’s so funny it’s accurate
@@NotSoNSC I think that means you're lucky lmfaoo
Im half Asian, but my father was white and he got full custody. Somehow I still got the full asian experience, the frozen chicken, the music example happened after I learned a second instrument,
But white parents are also very strict and can cause emotional damage
@@dreamfire9661 I'm sure some of them can be, but you can definitely tell it's not the norm to beat your kids here or "abuse" them in any way. In America and Europe there are laws that protect children from that kind of thing, you touch a hair on a child's head and social services or CPS will be called so quickly, whereas Asians-well in my experience Chinese parents anyway, they whoop you and it's just part of the culture, part of raising you to be 'proper', our parents will just say "it's for your own good / it's bc we care". A very large percentage of us were raised that way and it's not really weird to most of us.
Whereas here you know it's very unheard of bc if it happens, the person is very traumatized by it and it's an extremely huge deal, and they will either be very reluctant to talk about it, or some of them will make it their whole personality (that they were abused as kids/had a fked up childhood) just to come off as unique or edgy.
It also causes fractures in their family. They will move away from their parents and cut off contact because they wonder how they could harm them as kids in such a horrible hateful way. They'll think their parents were horrible people too.
Being Chinese, like yes it's still "emotional and mental damage" lol, but like it's almost no different from like falling off a swing when you were a kid. You kind of just unconsciously accept it as normal, and yeah you joke about it like that.
4:15 that smile...devilish and sincere...only a true proud failure management father could have this expression on his face xD
@Obi wan Kenobi. bro why
@Obi wan Kenobi. no father + L + ratio
Worse is music lessons with a relative as your teacher. They report EVERYTHING to your parents!
Pro Tip: If you're child did something wrong, after you come home from work, say absolutely nothing. The pure amount of guilt and pressure will lead to your failure just telling you what you did wrong.
And then you can throw the slipper.
Wow that’s an advanced technique
Only professionals can pull this off.
......why....why are you giving ideas...
whose side are you on? 🤣🤣🤣
this guy parents failures
That’s my mom
As someone who is still not an adult, but also not asian, this is very validating. Thank you Steven: your course on emotional damage has helped me heal some of my own lol
This is my daily life with one parent being Asian and the other mexican, its has its pros and cons,its just that the cons out way the pros but a planet
The family dinner scene really hit home. As a full-time Asian, whenever we had a family dinner w/ friends of my parents, they made me do Taekwondo in front of them. At one point I fell and they told me my black belt was fake and I should lose 10 pounds 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Oh my God 🤣 I’m so sorry for laughing at this as hard as I did. That’s severe emotional damage for sure. That’s really terrible. I’m sorry 😢
😂😂😂
Emotional rollercoaster except it only goes down
Wait..... Full-time Asian? Does that position have benefits? What's the pay? Do I need a license to apply? 🤔
@@deonjoyner960 Is it possible to be a part-time asian?
I cannot with the way he was breathing on that chicken to defrost it, haha
Even more advanced emotional damage technique: When you get home and the child hasn't done what s/he is supposed to, just sigh and shake your head. The child will freak out on their own from their already massive guilt complex.
This is literally my Mexican mom 😭
Maximum emotional damage
"I'm not angry, just disappointed."
_EMOTIONAL DAMAGE._
@@thempress-ro is this like a parent quote? My flatmate uses it a lot and your post gave me a thought that he has it from someone older
Emotional damage
Very educational video. I learned a lot of things I never knew- such as the fact that I now have PTSD!
4:20 the fact that the chord he is holding is actually a real legit chord
Great lesson! You know it "sticks" when you are a rich Nobel Prize winning, Olympic running, Astronaut and still one day your brain randomly brings up the Emotional Damage and your friend finds you in the fetal position under the fitted sheet of your bed. Parent job well done. Love your vids!
wow. that description sounded too real to be made up

“What key is that?” “F-?”
That had me laughing so hard 😂
Thats not the key "F -" its the key of FAILURE 😂
I think everyone can relate with "Because I said so". The ultimate parent weapon.
The counter solution/attack to this weapon is "NOT GIVING A SHIT" and directly but politely saying "NO" at first and sticking aggssively to it. It's effective if you can establish your worth or prove that you are more knowledgeable than them most of the time, at most of the things.
@@raiyannasir8609 oh yeah absolutely
@@raiyannasir8609 When you are under 16 and gotta live with your Asian parents, saying stuff like that is a one way ticket to getting the shit smacked outta you.

I'm from a Spanish upbringing and this one hit WAY to close to home to make it through the entire guitar solo without pausing it twice to walk off some of this anxiety. Thanks for the memories Steven, which is also my dad's name!! THANKS BRO!
I am Brazilian and it is exactly the same...
as a white guy, I'm glad to see my parents took some lessons from other cultures
Diversity is our strength

@Thanos Cousin Timmy got 10 times more likes and he went to each person one by one and wrote each an individual presentation with an original poem. WHILE HE WAS IN A COMA.
“If you don’t feel like playing you don’t have to.”
“Yes he does.”
😂😂😂😂
as a musician with an asian mother you have successfully outlined every situation like that that i've been through so many times.
so many. it never stops. i've been used to brag so much you'd think i'm a trophy cabinet
also wonderful cover of wonderwall, A*
HAHAHA it's so true most of our parents use us to brag to their friends and family
4:33 This is my favourite line. Steven you're getting better and better!! I'm so glad I found your channel!! Sending you lots of love and support!!
Wonderwall by oasis lol. I listen to that song and you sung it better than I could🤣🤣🤣
You need a version of this where the Steven becomes good at the guitar and says he wants to become a musician only for the dad to get angry.
There is a video of that exact scenario, but with playing the piano 😆
😂😂😂
It’s there now
Just by seeing his hand movements, you can tell Stephen can actually play guitar chords reasonably well
The fact that this is all have been done to us is a whole new definition of creepiness
You too!?
@@StevenHe STEVEN HE REPLIED TO MY COMMENT- (perishes)
"Because I said so" is the first phrase they teach in parenting 101. You have resurrected my buried emotional damage.
HAHAHA
THANK YOU SO MUCH STEVEN.

YOU JUST SAVED ME FROM A BEATING

Jesus shall claim you one day
The camera shake is just too good! 😂😂😂
The “Let other asian parents/family join on the roast” is so relatable what my asian mom does, always giving me *emotional damage*
Oh you know the whole extended family is joining the roast
Mhm
THE LOUD CAR DOOR SLAM STILL GETS ME.
Also, speaking as someone who was classically trained in cello since 7 with orchestra, never could go to recess to practice, after homework practice for 2 hours and an additional after school private tutoring with the pressure to perform for solo concerts and my grandparents...
Also, day camp for orchestra!
I have so much emotional damage...
I did not mention sports and clubs either.
...I guess my parents were successful.
Very effective!
@@igorbb2900yes so effective
Omg how are you still alive and sane???😱😱😰😰
@@quirogatnonerrat3214 Alive with a lot of EMOTIONAL DAMAGE, debt and managing as a-lad-insane! 😉
Literally my exact same story, but with piano. My parents made me take the Suzuki method starting at age 4. So. Much. Emotional. Damage. I was so terrified of my teacher that I’d fake getting nosebleeds during lessons just so I could take refuge in the bathroom for a few precious minutes. 🙃
Steven's dad uses a standing desk because he misses the good old days when sitting wasn't invented yet.

Hey man, I just discovered your videos after losing a job and they have really lifted my spirits. I have to move back in with my mom until I find a job and although I'm not Asian, I grew up in a fairly strict household and your videos are really relatable and make me laugh. Thanks for lifting my spirits and making me laugh in this hard time when I feel like a big FAAAILUWe! :)
Thank the good lord for your demanding parents, and for making you uncomfortable with living with them as an adult. You will launch and do fine!
I love how the whole time Asian Dad is narrating he’s trying not to laugh XD
SHUT UP
yeah steven he laughs alot he cuts it out alot
All Asian dad note this
steven's dad is so powerful that even wearing slippers he sends shockwaves through the house just casually walking
Steven getting punished is very relatable and somehow funny at the same time.
You know you're a Steven He fan when you suffer a skill issue in life and can hear him saying, "EMOTIONAL DAMAGE"

As a professional half-Asian I can confirm that playing all the instruments is a requirement, I have and still play cello,violin,piano, guitar and trumpet. I will also force this upon my child or children.
As an Indian, i find this so relatable, everytime i see your videos, i am able to connect,. Like the family dinner or "cause i want you " by asian parents. So relatable, very happy to see someone from Asia going this big. Respect from India💕💕💕🙌🙌
I have heard how Indian parents can really pile on the pressure and guilt when they think it's time for their kid to get married. Can you confirm? Do you know someone else who can?
I lost it at the thawing the chicken part. I think we’ve all been there. The guitar and singing brought tears to my eyes I was laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣 well done Steven! We love the Failure Management content. 💙
Make Failure Management a company, it’s for good Asian parenting for money, it makes the failures (those things you call children) doctors thanks to the good parenting
I like how Steven's father had already bought Steven a guitar (Behind the blue chair in Steven's room) in addition to signing him up for lessons. What a good father!
yeah that was a true story with piano.
That's how they get you. "I spent all this money to buy expensive instrument, why do you let it gather dust? Don't waste money"
Don't know if to laugh or cry.
Poor kids. Saw this at a provincial music festival my son was in. He was in the top 8. He was the only non Asian there. So, the first girl went up, trying so hard, she was literally crying on stage. She sounded beautiful but I don't think her mother was happy because she didn't win. My son didn't win either but I'm very proud of him. He was blown away by how good everyone was. Sounded incredible. And the day before we were in a hotel room before the concert, I really thought that one girl was playing her violin for at least 5 hours straight practicing.
The worst feeling is when you start playing your instrument in front of your guests, and they start yawning/looking confused, and your parents give you "The look"
Even more emotional damage when they say,"play something your (the guest) understands!"
OMFG THAT GAVE ME WAR FLASHBACKS
