10 things that you did not know about immigrants.
#26
RE: 10 things that you did not know about immigrants.
It took about a year for us kids to learn English once we moved here. Once we learned though, our accents slowly faded over time. My parents' accents are still very strong though.

Like I said, growing up, everyone who knew us knew we were South American.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
