  I think money and holidays are not the key factors in quality of life. You must also count on a fair society, low criminality, working conditions, good weather, good food, open character of people...

  Very good news, indeed, but: “Housewives in their 30s tend to envy career women because of their corporate career path, while career women in their 30s tend to envy housewives because they look happy, with their married lives and children. Everyone wants something they don’t have.”

  Japan protects human rights??

  What about the death penalty? The strong sexual discrimination? The passive attitute towards minorities like the disabled, homosexuals, immigrants? Workers not getting payed for the extra hours?

  And what happens if all the kids born are girls instead of boys? No chance to improve economy, right? Women will not work anyway... Like Akiko's problem: she was born girl so she can not "work" as Empress... They had to find the way to get a baby boy somehow...…

  Maybe closing all the conbinis at night is too much, but I have seen dozens of times a conbini here and another one 20 ms ahead and another one 30 ms behind... That is indeed too much. If you really need to buy something at 3 o'clock in the morning,…

  An the real sad thing is that a woman in Japan has to do this kind of things too often DUE TO THE LACK OF CAREER OPPORTUNITIES AND PROPER ENCOURAGEMENT FOR HIGH EDUCATION

  About this news itself, there are two things I really don't understand:

  1. Why do parents have to apologize for a 25 year-old adult? When is a person old enough in Japan to be considered responsible of his own actions?
