I don't believe so. There are 2 cultural differences I've noticed as a son to immigrant parents in the US. 1) My parents primary goal was to make life better for their kids. It was in a nutshell why they immigrated in the first place - not to improve their own lives. 2) It's the responsibility of the kids to care for their parents. The idea of nursing homes is so foreign and repulsive to my parents (and myself for that matter). This is a generalization but, from my experience, that's baked into eastern culture across classes.
