Question

In general, according to the textbook, is "americanization" a positive and desirable experience for immigrant adolescents?

Answer 1

In my opinion, Americanization can be both good and bad for young adolescents. It can help them become independent but it can also cause major issue with culture. The US had been the home of many cultures. There is a possibility that many of these adolescents might forget their cultural traditions and practices because they are more used to being American.
