They may suddenly feel at a loss or feel odd during national or cultural holidays, may not know what to think about different sxhool or everyday habits. They may suddenly find themselves staunch supporters of the culture they left behind.

One of the triggers for this can be the realization that they may not have a way of communicating with their children or grandchildren. They may want to cling to the traditional ways of thinking, education and culture so that they don't lose touch with the family they look forward to building here.

Or I could be totally off-base and just rambling. Who knows.

Good theory, but her mom said they'd be the "laughing stock of the family". That means she is just an ignorant racist bitch.

I'd say the exact same thing. It doesn't matter which side of the fence you're on, racism is fucked. Especially if you move to a country, and are racist towards that country. Like what the fuck is wrong with you?
