These options are excerpts taken from the book "Two Kinds"
"Two Kinds" is the book written by Amy Tan that shows the existence of cultural and generational conflict between families. This is because the narrative shows Chinese families who had children in the US.
Although these children were strongly influenced by American culture as they grew up, traditional Chinese culture was fostered within their homes by their mothers.
The problem is that Chinese culture and American culture are very different, which created conflicts between mothers and daughters. In addition to cultural conflict, families face a generational conflict, as daughters have very different goals from those pursued by their mothers when they were their age.
