Having education make me feel different from my family when they moved to United States from Africa they didn't know much my mom never graduated high school and she never attended an English school and my dad he just never went to school so when they got here it was hard for them as I got older I was usually the one to help them with paper work and my siblings. Having to get education and not my parents makes me feel American and it also makes me fit in the American life unlike my family they struggle because they so use to the African life that they cant get away from speaking with the stuff I learned from school makes me know how to show my true American identity.
