[quote=Anonymous]We are immigrants too, but came to the US for grad school and stayed for work so we speak English, came here young and feel in some ways more American than anything else. Our fiends are international like us or Americans and we have hosted play dates and went to several families’ places in the past. Our nanny is from the Philippines and has young kids. I noticed that she mostly only has Philippine friends. She is super social and her English decent. The only non Philippine friend she has is the American husband of a Philippine woman. I don’t know why that is, but it’s true. Her older kids have American friends, but they are older. I think that because we went to school here we feel more in touch with the American culture and are more used to it... I am not sure there is anything you can do about it[/quote]
