A video posted on TikTok by the user @yunisleidy1008 has gone viral after sharing advice on living with Cuban family members who have emigrated.
In the recording, the young woman warns about the problems that can arise when bringing family members from Cuba to other countries, assuring that the situation, instead of improving, often becomes complicated.
"If you want to get along well with your family in Cuba, don't make the mistake of bringing them over here. Leave them there," the TikToker stated in her video, which has sparked extensive debate on social media.
According to their testimony, many people believe that by helping their relatives emigrate, they are providing them with a better life, but the reality may be different.
"More than 80 percent of us make the mistake of thinking that by bringing them along we will solve a problem and help them, and while they are out there, they want to conquer the world,” he commented.
According to the young woman, once in the new country, family members may not adapt to the household rules, show resistance to working, or even want to impose their own norms.
"Then the problems begin; they don't like the rules of the place where they live, they believe they know better than anyone else, they don't want to work, they want to be in charge of the house they are living in. Avoid this problem," he emphasized.
The video has triggered a wave of reactions among internet users, many of whom have shared similar experiences. Some users echoed the young woman's sentiments, noting that the adaptation of newly arrived family members can be challenging, while others defended the importance of offering support to loved ones in times of need.
The Cuban migration phenomenon has been characterized by family reunification and the hopes for a better life abroad. However, the process is not always straightforward and can lead to conflicts arising from cultural, economic, and cohabitation differences.
The original video by Yunisleidy1008 continues to accumulate views and comments on TikTok, reflecting the interest and controversy this topic generates within the Cuban community abroad.
