This is not good advice.

Firstly, you need to put the things you need ahead of the things you want. You should listen very carefully to what others think and do, a wise person learns as much (hopefully more) from other's mistakes as they learn from their own.

As much as you may be in love, you are only 16, and are not yet mature enough to make objective judgments. Even if you are wise for your age (and many people are), you need to think of your situation without being too emotional about it.

That said, you shouldn't worry too much about your mom's opinion of your boyfriend. I think it has less to do with him being Vietnamese than him just being a boy. No doubt she's remembering her own experiences (good and bad) at your age and worrying about how you will do. Before long she'll get used to the idea, and she'll probably offer some advice, which will hopefully be useful.
