<P><TT>Okay, I get your point here, but let me clarify
myself. I understand that there are going to be some
differences. What I meant by this was that family
activities, were pretty much the same as in my own
household. Yes, I realize that different people handle
different situations in their own ways. I guess that
most of the families that I was around were very
Americanized, and this may account for my take on the
issue. I did learn a few things when I was working
ata women's shelter about how women of different
races deal w/abuse etc. so I realize that there are
some major issues that as Americans we don't quite
understand, being raised to speak freely etc(American
women are by far one of the most outspoken groups!).
What I was getting at was family is family, whether
you have a mixed family or not, what I got from these
experiences was that they all loved their families and
their parents were not so different from mine, even
though we were different on the outside.</TT></P>
