We started to learn language whenwe were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants arehaving many problems between the first generation and the second generation because theydon't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity.Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries tosucceed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying tospeak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at homein order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnicidentity and even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.For example, my aunt, who has been living in Chicago for fifteen years, has threechildren and they were all born in the States. The eighteen-year-old daughter speaks Englishas a native language and she speak Korean very well, too. She has no problems talking withher parents, but she still doesn't understand Korean jokes, and there are sometimesmisunderstandings. The second daughter is fourteen years old, and she doesn't want to speakKorean. My aunt often gets upset with her because she is very Americanized and they cannotunderstand each other. Even when my aunt punishes her, this daughter does not understandwhat my aunt is talking about. I felt sympathy for my aunt whenever my fourteen year oldcousin said. "Mom, what is your problems?". The third child is a twelve year old son. Hespeaks English to his parents and my aunt speaks Korean to him as she does to the seconddaughter. He also has a problem communicating with his parents. My aunt is trying to teachhim to speak both languages very well, but it is very hard for him because he speaks Englishall day and does not understand why he should learn to speak Korean.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrantsshould make and effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their childrenunderstand their heritage by teaching them the parent's language. This is very important, notonly for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generations establish theiridentity.
