Scenario

When diaspora couples disagree about cultural transmission

My husband wants to teach our kids about our culture and homeland, but I'm terrified of passing on this specific kind of pain to them. We can't agree on how much of our story to share or whether our grief about what we lost should become part of their identity too.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Parents from a lost homeland are struggling to navigate how much of their grief and cultural memory to pass to the next generation, caught between preservation and protection.
