    My mom blamed us (me and my older brother) for “sitting too close to the TV”

    She kept us mostly locked indoors in an apartment (besides going to school) from the beginning of my memory up till 8 years old.

    Then we moved to the US and from 8 to 12 I was in school from morning (like 7 AM maybe? forgot the exact time) till like 6PM cuz she signed me up afterschool programs cuz she wanted to use it as free babysitting essentially so she can work longer…

    And we cant go outside alone without adults.

    In China it was “a lot of kidnappers on the street thay will traffic you and sell your organs”

    In the US it was “if you go outside without an adult, CPS will take you away and you can’t see mama again” (idk why mom spoke in 3rd person sometimes lol)

    Yay! so… from birth to 12 I was indoors, either in school or at home, most of the time…

    outdoor time was rare and only when parents have a day off or like the 15 minutes of recess in school…

    that’s basically our outside time…

    In China we had maternal grandma that sometimes took us outside…

    In the US, it was just mom, dad, older brother, and me (cuz grandma can’t come yet, no visa yet)… So we had even less outside time… like parenrs had to work all the time…

    But of course its always “too much screens!” to be blamed lmao

    From 8 to 12 was when my nearsightedness really developed a lot.

    I didn’t understand why I had nearsigntedness at the time, but now looking back and analyzing my life, now it’s so obvious why lol…

    My older brother has like -9.00 or -10.00 in the nearsightedness thing. Its funny my parents called it like 900 or 1000 “degrees”… like it sounds so much scarier when they drop the decimal point and literally say: “you’re about to have ONE THOUSAND DEGREES IN NEARSIGHTEDNESS! You’re gonna GO BLIND!”
