I don't think my parents are disappointed (and to be honest, there's nothing for them to be disappointed about), but rather they have trouble showing that they're happy with what I've done with my life.

This is particularly true for my father. I think it might be that he sees a lot of himself in me, and maybe he just has really high standards? Who knows...

My career path is likely what a lot of immigrant parents plan for their children and yet I still don't think anything is good enough for mine.
