Most children of immigrants are U.S. born citizens. 2^nd generation immigrants often question “What does it mean to be a second-generation immigrant in the United States? Does it mean that one is an Iranian, an American or a fine blend of both cultures? How do I determine my Identity? How do I balance what I learn at home with what I see at school or work? How do I deal with resentment or hate crimes?” The presentation will address how the stresses of immigration and acculturation and the factors of resiliency and risk effect immigrants and their children and their families. The divergent, often well-hidden, worldviews, cognitions may cause interfamilial conflicts and interfere with the child’s developmental process.
