My family is part of the Hong Kong Bangladeshi society. In this society, all the boys, other than me, pretend to be good boys in front of the elders, but do indecent, impolite, and haram things in private. My sisters and I know these things very well. But my dad thinks that they are really good boys because they pretend to be good boys in front of him and other elderly. Ever since I was young, my father has been very strict on my freedoms and who I befriend, because he does not want me to hold on to Bangladeshi culture and Islam religion. I accepted most of them because I was religious-minded since a young age. Since young, my father forced me to befriend the boys of the Hong Kong Bangladeshi society. And constantly, I was bullied by them. I told my father about this, but he did not believe me. Rather he says that Satan has caught my mind, that&#8217;s why I don&#8217;t want to befriend good boys. Even now, these boys are pretending to be good boys in front of elderly, but doing bad things and haram things in private. And my dad is very forceful on me to befriend them. But every time I go to them, they bully to me. Now, he has said that I am not allowed to befriend anyone in Hong Kong who is not a Bangladeshi; he thinks that Hong Kong Bangladeshi boys are good boys even when they do bad things and haram things in private. I try to befriend the Hong Kong Bangladeshis, but they always end up bullying me. And when I can&#8217;t befriend them, my father blames me for it, and scolds me. I told my father many times that its not that I don&#8217;t want to befriend them because I can&#8217;t befriend them, and they bully me when I go to them. But because those boys pretend to be good boys in front of the elderly such as my father, he does not believe me and instead scolds me and blames me for not befriending the boys boys who he believes are &#8216;good boys&#8217;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">What should I do in this situation?
