See a little cultural difference between the East and the West

An ordinary drama, I actually cried when watching it, and it is too easy for people with children to substitute. I think I am not afraid of death, because I am too afraid of pain, but the child has become the only person I dare not die. Seriously, I even think that if a rich man like Theresa dies, he will die. Children can't suffer, even poor people like me dare not die. Both Grace and Isabel blamed Oscar for this point, and I couldn't do the same, but after discussing it with his spouse, he thought he would be angry because "you can't make decisions for another person." I laughed at him because you Westernized quickly. But this may really be a cultural difference between the East and the West. According to the understanding of the Easterners, the kind of nurturing is so good, how can you dare to blame a person who silently shouldered such a heavy responsibility? Besides, if the child is abandoned by his biological parents, I don’t know how hard it is. However, in Western culture, the importance of many things may not be ranked like this. For example, commitment and honesty are more important. Adopted children do not mean that they will lose the possibility of being loved. Parents' nurturing grace is also true. This is not a great kindness. If you understand it this way, Oscar can only say that he is very selfish and deceived two people when receiving Grace, and Grace and his reconciliation are also because of the deep feelings between each other and don't need to be grateful that his father didn't abandon her.
