　　People are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems be-tween the first generation and the second generation because they don't have thesame native lan-guage. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many im-migrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots ofareas such as getting a job and trying to speak English ,they want their children to speak English, notonly at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, theirchildren are losing their ethnic identity.

　　For example, my aunt, who has been living in Chicago for twenty-five years, has three childrenand they were all born in the States. The eighteen-year old daughter speaks English as a native lan-guage and she speaks Korean very well too. She has no problems talking with her parents, but shestill doesn't understand Korean jokes, and there are sometimes misunderstandings. The second daugh-ter is fourteen years old, and she doesn't want to speak Korean. My aunt often gets upset with her be-cause she is very Americanized and they cannot understand each other. Even when my aunt punishesher,this daughter does not understand what my aunt is talking,.about. The third child is a twelve-year-old son. He speaks English to his parents and my aunt speaks' Korean to him as she does to the second daughter. He also has a problem communicating with his parents. My aunt is trying to teach him to speak both languages, but it is very hard for him because he speaks English all day and does not understand why he should learn to speak Korean.

　　We must realize that language is import.ant and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.
