[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a child of immigrants. My parents have been living in the US for 40 years and I don’t think they have any friends that are not from their native country. When I was growing up, I played outside with my friends everyday. Parents were not involved. I just knew I had to be home for dinner. There were no cell phones back then.[/quote] Yes. My friend down the street was a girl from Cambodia. We played all the time, but her mom never really learned English and had her own community. So she and my folks never hung out or did playdates (my mom was always friendly and polite though). That wasn't a relationship that was going to happen. OP, just be happy if the kids are all playing and having fun.[/quote]
