As children of immigrants, we all face different experiences, we hear several different stories of their childhood, their journey to this country and reason, their life here and the hardships they endured. There are probably several of you that feel like your parents don’t understand you or that your parents are too old school and don’t realize what life is like now but how many people think about the fact that their parents feel the same exact way you do when you’re trying to get through to them. Being a child of an immigrant family isn’t easy, there are some things that are hard to explain to your parents and vice versa. I feel that the biggest hardship as an immigrant is trying to get through to your kids but also understanding their perspective. I’m not a parent so I obviously don’t understand that or actually know that, however, I do know that not many people have the closest relationship to their parents and they’re trying their absolute best to make up for all the effort that their parents have given to make sure that their life is the best it could possibly be. This is all from experience in my own life but also stories from my friends that I hear every time we talk.
