In “Mother Tongue”, Amy Tan reveals her experience living with her foreign mother in America. Amy's mother is Chinese and although she understands English perfectly, she has difficulties in speaking the language fluently and with the rules of grammar established perfectly. This caused Amy's mother to be disrespected and ignored several times, causing her severe discomfort and preventing her, as a contributor in the nation, from living a full life.
