Jess,
Before you judge the Hmong/Cambodian community too harshly, you might be interested in reading a terrific book: "The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down," by Anne Fadiman. It's about a little Hmong girl in California who gets sick, and all the cultural misunderstandings that occur between the family and the medical community. It's a brilliant book--it won a National Book Award--and I think you'll totally enjoy it!
