[quote=Anonymous]I am from an immigrant family and born here. I married someone not from the same culture. When I meet new immigrants from that country, especially with young kids, I see them become stressed and I am certain they go home to talk - did you see her? Husband is American, kids don’t speak the language, she barely can anymore. That’s ok. It’s overwhelming to feel like your family will lose its culture, no matter how happy you are to be here. But they will mostly figure it out as their kids get older - their kids’ happiness is what is important and they will be happy for their kids. That’s what happened with my parents. When I was 12, they would have said the same thing your kids’ friend’s did. But they changed as they understood what’s actually important. They never stood in the way of my happiness when it mattered. [/quote]
