[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To all those posters whose Indian parents came over in the 60s and are lamenting the loss of the "real" Indian values in Indian kids today...I've got news for you. Those 2000s kids are the real Indians. Your parents are frozen in time and nobody in India is like that anymore. I say this as someone who came to the US for undergrad in 2001. I still have all my family in India, [b]visit every year unlike very old Indian immigrants who don't have much to do with the country anymore.[/b] [/quote]

Actually most of that generation visits every year because they now have the money to do so.  They didn't before.  The generation that came over in the 60s worked hard to get here.  The generation that came over in the 2000s came over because they have rich families that could afford to send them here (people like you - what other 20 something can afford to go back to India every year?).[/quote]

Not PP, bu another 20s indian who came here on a full scholarship and saved carefully so I could go to India every year. Tickets to India are not very expensive you know. Less expensive than half a dozen shabby-chic dresses you probably buy at Anthro.[/quote]
