Weekly Participation

            This week, I asked my interviewee whether they would want to grow up raising their family the same way their parents raised them, or whether they would rather raise their family based on their own family values. My interviewee explained that he would change minor things when raising a family of his own, but overall, he would idolize his parents' style of parenting. He explained that there would be times where he would refrain from being as strict on certain subjects as his parents are. Something that I found interesting was how this interviewee's family history was. He said that he has become the person he is today by combining the more old-fashioned family life style he developed before coming to America with the more modernized type of society presented by the United States when he and his family did arrive. In conclusion, the combination of both life styles my interviewee grew up by has shaped him into who he is today, and he sees himself as being a model for his future family based on the family values his parents have given him over the years.
