[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Individualism is definitely an major aspect of White American culture and many people of all backgrounds like it. When people here talk about a "village" they are thinking about government funded supports, which I think are important and we need more of. Cultures that are more communal can be wonderful too. [/quote] It can also be toxic. The whole “family is everything” motto can lead to people staying in situations with family members who are toxic and damaging because “they are family” further extending generational damage.
