the response #4 from Sunghoon Park

Anna, the writer, “A Step From Heaven,” wrote that the hardship of immigrant life in young-Ju’s family. Even though, Young-Ju had the highest GPA in her grade in school, she could not satisfy with any prize from her parents what she expected. Actually, she looked forward to do as most of parents did like visiting and staying with their children at a ceremony of awarding prizes. However, because she knew that most of immigrants spend their time working during a day, she tried to understand about parent’s thought and life. Because of like these hardship immigrant life, her father drank alcohol too much and behaved badly to his wife and children. Sometimes he caused violence to wife and children. Also Joon-Ho, Young-Ju’s brother, became another person. He used to not attend to his class and came back to home from school too late and defied to Young-Ju. To tell the truth, I can understand young-Ju’s thought, because I saw many immigrants include my relatives and how to live in America of other country. Most of immigrants suffer from different language and cultures when they arrive in America or other country for a while. However, I think that Young-Ju’s parents should fulfill parent’s duty. Namely, they have responsibility for the fulfillment of obligation. They should attend a ceremony and join with their children. Even if there are many suffering in front of them, they have to show the support of a family to their children, because parents are a model of their children. Likeness, Young-Ju’s father has to show a model of what a man ought to be to his children.
