Why could Lindo’s children not have American circumstances and Chinese character?


Her American husband won't let her practice her culture

Waverly only carried about her Chinese side

Lindo did not like Americans

Those two things could not exist at the same time

Answer 1

Lindo's children couldn't have both American circumstances and Chinese character because her American husband wouldn't let her practice her culture, and Waverly only cared about her Chinese side. Lindo may not have liked Americans, but her husband's influence and Waverly's preference for their Chinese heritage were the primary factors.
