taking into consideration the manners of the new place as an immigrant. On the one hand, holding on to our cultural background as immigrants plays a huge role in the transmission of identity from one generation to another. When living abroad, it is easy to forget about the traditional customs and get influenced by foreigners, which leads to a loss of the unique aspect of each culture.

For example

, kids who grew up in a foreign country do not feel a sense of belonging to the country they are born in if their parents did not continuously remind them of their roots.

On the other hand

For instance

To summarize, I personally think that migrants should follow the customs and traditions of their home countries in order to preserve their historical identity and adapt to the culture and manners of the locals to blend in with others and feel a sense of belonging there.
