#1) How does the fact that some of these parents are immigrants affect their children?

The fact that some of these parents are immigrants affect their children by allowing them to have a different type of life than how their parents had to experience. It gives them better opportunities and the ability to learn and expand a new language.

#2) What are some of the sacrifices made by the parents in this unit’s selections?

Some of the sacrifices that were made by the parents was to leave their country in order to obtain a better way of life for themselves and their children. Also they would work hard in order to put their kids through school. This is most apparent in “My Father Sits in the Dark” and “The Egg”.

#3) Choose two of the works you have read in this unit and explain the reversal of the parent-child roles within them. 

 The two works that have this type of reversed relationship where the child behaves more like the parent are “The Egg” and "Mother Tongue”. The reason being that in both of this the child is more grounded and has a much clearer view on what is going on in their environment. For example “The Egg” where the narrator is aware of the ambition, sacrifice and the failures that his father goes through. In “Mother Tongue” the daughter is the one that has to speak in her mother's stead because her english is very limited.

I hope it helps, Regards.
