I had just spent my formative years being mocked and berated in exchange for 1000 kcals a day of the food my sister liked. At 23 years old I still looked, acted, and thought like a preteen. You want to talk about finishing puberty? I didn't even start until college. I'm in my thirties now and still learning to be a man.
In that situation there's not much else to do but pack your things and start over somewhere you can try to be your own dad. Vietnam was cheap and easy to get started in. Been here for ten years.
