Our Girlfriend's Parents

[Spitfire]

Anyone else here have problems with their girlfriends parents? I'm thinking maybe some people here have gone through what I'm going through and can offer some help...or maybe you have a problem and I can help.
Here is my problem
My girlfriend's(Mai) parents found out about me after we were togther for 4 months. Her Mom gave me a big speech about the things her culture demands me to do and all this other BS. The culture she was describing wasnt even her culture. Mai's Dad just went up stairs and didnt say a word. Then Mai went to Seattle and everything seemed okay. I didnt have to deal with them anymore. I had bought Mai a birthday present...I was planning on giving her something special, I told it was so I would always be near here even when she was all the way in Seattle. I was going to give it to her on the 10th. We were going to go to the movies. Her Mom didnt know I was going to be there however, and still doesnt know. Mai was just going with friends as far as her Mom knew. So she asked her Mom and her Mom said to ask her Dad. Her Dad said she doesnt trust her anymore and if she wants to go anywhere Mom has to go with her. No matter where it is, and to top it all off now the Mom and Dad are being really harsh on her brothers and sister. Their yelling at them and making them do labor around the house. Their also restricted to 1 hour of personal time <_< That made Mai feel awful. She's almost 18 and her Dad expects Mai to go out with her Mom. I would just say "F*** your Mom I'll give it to you anyways" But her Mom freaks out when people give her presents. One time a friend gave Mai a teddy bear and her Mom freaked out and said it was an engagement present. Like for marriage! GAH her Mom is so non-senseable I dont understand her logic or thinking! Makes me want to rip my hair out. So we made another plan to get around that. Mai is going to Davis and has to do this 3 day thing there to get to know the school. So on Tuesday I was going to go there and see her for an hour and give her the present. The only person who could take me cant because it's his anniversary with his wife. That isnt his fault but it just makes things look impossible. That is the ONLY time she wont be near her parents. That and when she is at the airport. She flew down here just for the Davis thing. And she leaves on the 15th. She just flew in today. I feel bad she has to be with them for 3 days. Atleast she can stay in the dorm thing and be away from them for a bit. They want total control over her and expect her to obey them even after she turns 18. Which is on August 17th. But she wont be here and I cant give her the present. So I was going to give it to her before she goes back to Seattle. I dont know what to do, I get to angery sometimes. I just punched my desk again...poor thing. I abuse it alot when Im mad. I know it's something that wont break if I beat on it. I used to punch the walls but I hit them so hard now I leave holes so I cant do that anymore...I cant wait until she's 18 and then she can move out. She wants to live with me but as much as I would like that she wont get to go to collage if she does >_< I got to see her like I would normally in Seattle but now when she is no more then a few blocks away from me I cant see her. So close yet further then ever.
