![]() I have two boys and I try to raise them with some of the same values and customs. We did have to be respectful to our parents and followed strict rules when it came to eating and respecting the elders in our family. Our weekends were consumed with soccer, tennis, Girl Scouts, and play dates with friends. ![]() We didn’t go to Chinese school on the weekends and we didn’t play any instruments.
