The culture are consists of different custom and tradition. And there are no two cultures are exactly alike in this world. So when people migrate to abroad they should meet the question with keep the traditional beliefs for their new life and pass them on to their children or just following the customs of a new environment not active to educate the traditional beliefs to the children.
In face, when you move the new environment you should following the new customs that can avoid some conflicts and help you get the friendship easier. To regard new environment kindly and be brave to face that is important thing. However, it does not always have a positive aspect. Take the aboriginals of my country for example. Some of their parents moved to a big city for the purpose of having a better job and educational environment for children. Nevertheless, they did not pass on their original culture to the children, resulting in generation gap between grandparents and grandchildren. Children are assimilated by people living in a city, so they do not understand their traditions existing for a long time. What's worse, children cannot use their own dialects to communicate with grandparents.
Consequently, I am of the opinion that we should abide by the new countries’ customs when we live in the beginning years, because we can accommodate ourselves to new environment soon and easily. Local residents can also accept you as a part of them quickly. While getting used to living in the new country, we can decide what part of customs I should obey and not to do. We should respect other countries’ customs no matter how you like or not, can also make a balance between two different customs. And one thing we should keep in mind to educate the children that is ,never forget the original culture.
