I noticed that most of them that migrate overseas often forget their own culture. When they come back home for vacation they find everything so absurd. In fact there are many culture aspect which can be preserved only the good ones. Why dont they ever want to protect that and turn to something else?

b/c they think their cool.......but at the same time theres all those desis living in india forgetting their own culture so can you really blame them?

I'm way more cultured (raised in American since the age of 9 and now 22) than the kids raised in india their whole life. I go to the temple every sunday, respect my parents, will have an arrange marriage, live with my husband's family, no partying, no drinking, no smoking, i love cooking..............like seriously, is it soo hard???? So I guess the question should now be, why are the kids being raised in india more "westernized" than the kids that actually grow up in a westernized world.

I'm not totally sure what you are saying in the second part of your question. I was born in England, and came to Canada at the age of 6. However, my origins are from India. I have noticed many people come here at a later age, then go back and pretend to know nothing about their culture. That, to me, is just playing a game. They have no idea how stupid they look. Although my origins are Indian, I have never been to India, yet I can speak the language, and I know the customs. People are often surprised. Yes, when you go to a new country, you should pick up its language and customs, but you should never forget your own. As a result, I can speak English, French, and Hindi. I find that is to my benefit.
