[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, the kid lives in America and is surrounded by Americans. Maybe dad is just putting in a little extra effort to expose the kid to his British heritage. Certainly no one else in Texas is going to do that? Regardless, MYOB.[/quote] I get it, and I have and will keep to myself on this. I just feel bad for the kid, like he's going to be some kind of culture alien or, worse yet, poseur. [/quote] If he is self aware and has good examples in non judgemental aunt and uncle he’ll be fine. I have a friend who speaks with a French accent. His family is French and he was born in the us. At 17 he was a very suave dude and used his totally put on accent to get girls. Still speaks like that at 30. Happily married and employed. It just became the way he was and his friends didn’t care even if we did gently rib him for it. [/quote]
