naya jivan, your emotions or rebellion does not work here. You should have known it better having raised in US and living here for more than 20 years. You will just be a part of a problem for your parents and society. If you are really thinking of making some changes in your life or the society you care, you need to get along with them, use them and then later lead everyone towards your goal. So, I would suggest you to throw this emotions about helping a society or being a rebellion to your parents, but just get along with them, use their links and power to know the society, cluture, politics, just put yourself in a place where people feel your power, and they want to hear you. Otherwise, just ranting about 'I want to help, I want to give to society' does not do any help.

Having grown up in US, you only have been in touch with your parents, have known the way they think is not what you like, and have only seen that your parents are greedy, irresponsible, corrput and they do not fit into your definition of a good citizen. But believe me, when you know more about Nepalese society, you will find most people share the same idea and views like your parents. We all are no different. So, if you have a strong determination that you want to bring some changes to the society, then get along with your parents, make frequent visits to Nepal, build trust with your parents, relatives, politicians through them, be a part of society first. But stay in your determination. All you have to know is you have some goal, and whatever you are doing is for a reason to bring a change that you have been dreaming for a long. With just emotions and revolts against your parents and people you will just be crushed.
