Is he working?  Maybe drop some hints about house payments getting tough to cover, utility bills, etc., - with his new found driving skills, maybe he can drive a school bus?

Yell at the kids on the bus in Chinese.  The inflection is all that matters anyway from a school bus driver.

Its just Oriental culture. They are older than you, so they think they rule the roost. Buy them a house and get them out of your hair.

@Mitch fsaid he ran into a house.    Hitting a house is one thing.  Hitting MY house is a whole nother deal.  😂

I'll send my son over.  He loves Chinese language and writing.  He took four years in High School and is taking it in college too.  He spent ~ 10 days in China, touring Shanghai, Beijing, Xi'an, did some backflips on the Great Wall....And he brought me back a coffee mug from a Starbucks.  😏

They could sell their house in China and buy their own! 😂

My in-laws are annoying and American.  From Omaha.  They piss/moan and whine about everything. No restaurant, gas station, or brand of cookie can possibly meet their high standards.   

They've been shopping for a new truck lately, so if you're a car dealer/salesman in mid-Missouri....you have my sympathy....Allow me to pour you a drink. 🙄

High standards and Omaha... seems like an oxymoron 🤔
