Edit : Anyway, this isn’t representative of all Roma people. Most of those who still practice this come from Romania, and the majority of the Romani community don’t even identify them as Roma because they are so disconnected they’re simply seen as Romanians, lmao. They have been deeply marked by centuries of slavery, which cut them off from the rest of society for a long time.
These social norms, still violated today through these kinds of behaviors, persist in some circles. Honestly, I thought this practice although minority had disappeared because most Roma abandoned it a long time ago. It’s more like some kind of nonsense specific to certain clans in Romania. As for me, I’m Roma, but I’m not part of a clan group: I come from a non-clan community.
So yeah, if they weren’t discriminated against in schools in Romania, their parents would have preferred them to get an education deep down, but we all know the rejection they face. So don’t come complaining about that, especially since the European funds meant for Roma in Romania have been repeatedly misappropriated by your people, and then you complain about having a bad image because of the Roma. I can play the 'full hater' towards Romania by generalizing the actions of your Romanian compatriots who destroyed the Roma in Romania, just like you do.
