[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are E Asian and send DD to school with usual American style food. She loves burgers and Mac and Cheese and ham and a wide range of other things. We eat both American/Western food and E Asian food at home. We do not see any need to set our kid up for negative social interactions at school. Kid also wears conventional US kids clothes and sneakers, not some culturally-specific clothing (unless the school happens to have a heritage day).[/quote] PP above. I forgot to say, when DD was born, we deliberately gave her a conventional English language first name (think something like Mary or Jane) and also a middle name from our own language. Again, we do not see the point in setting up our child for social challenges at school. People will have trouble spelling non-conventional given names, even if they have the best of intentions.[/quote]
