Hi
I have to hold a paper about Chinese Americans and need some more information about immigration. How hard is it for Chinese to leave their country and come to the USA? It would be good if you could quote your sources if you have any. And my other question is: How are Chinese Americans acceptes in the US, is the a lot of discrimination? Thanks for your help!

She is 9 and has 3rd degree burns on her arms & back. She is moody and wants hugs one minute and to be left alone the next. The fire was on 12/26/06, and the grandfather passed away on 1/26/07. I want to do the best I can for her. I truly don't understand what a NINE YEARS OLD could possibly be feeling right now?! I give her all the love I can; I just want to do EVERYTHING I can. thanks for any advice.

Whether they are gay, loners, somebody in their mid/late 30s single(never married) and childless etc,etc. I mean even if they mean nobody harm they still get ridiculed for being different in America!!! Why do we live in a society of lemmings that all life is a one size fits all?

If the internet didnt exist, would you be out socialising right now? Would you pop round to your neighbours for a cuppa? Or would you still be at home not speaking to anyone.

Just curious.

In the course of a lifetime, we come across people who have intentionally harmed or insulted us. How can we protect ourselves against people with such intentions especially if we anticipate that these people are likely to replicate their past behaviour.

People like these can be from any walk of life - e.g. your colleague sitting in the next cabin who has intentionally taken credit for the work done by you or your neighbour who intentionally throws garbage in your yard.

In short, they can not be avoided plus, the idea is, if possible, how to reform these people into better human beings and citizens? How can we change their thought patterns? How can we win them over so that the "good" resident in them becomes the dominant part of their personality?

At the same time, v should b able 2 maintain, if not enhance, our dignity - "stoop to conquer" is not s'thing dat I personally find appealing!

I look forward 2 hearing some thot thru / considered responses.

Thanks & Cheers!
