There are numerous aspects about the hispanic culture that I like. How we tend to be extremely family-oriented, and we work hard for the things that we want. I love my culture, but there are some downsides to it, in my opinion. Hispanic culture tends to be very "old-school". By this, I mean that our culture tends to frown upon many things such as LGBTQ+ rights, and honestly they tend to be very sexist. All we can do is hope this changes. :-)

There are many things I like about my  cultural background, but the main ones are: our morals, the way our parents raise us, and the expectations. As we grow up our parents teach us we need to respect others, our elders, and always be well behaved. As a girl, my parents were always telling me I had to take care of myself, and behave in a way where others knew they needed to respect me. Another thing, is that our parents always have high expectations towards us. They expect for us to become a respectful professional, and they are always motivating us to be better. I think the only thing I would change about my cultural background if I could, would be the our double moral. Boys always get more things excused because they are "men". For example is a boy has a lot of girlfriends, the dad sees this as a good thing, but if he has a daughter, he would not even let her have one boyfriend.

My family cultural background is 100% Mexican. I am Mexican born and raised and one of the things that I like the most about my cultural background is that we are so family oriented. We are used to always gather in large groups and family comes before anything else. Everyone's opinions mater and I believe we still keep high morals when compared to other cultures. Another thing that I enjoy the most of my culture is our typical Mexican food and traditions. I'm happy to say that even though I live in the United States, my Mexican roots will forever stick with me.

what I like about my cultural background is that it is mainly about family I notice that a lot of my culture involves family in many ways and I love about my Mexican-American culture is that we are very family oriented I don't know how I would be if my family wasn't so close. I think the one thing I wish I could change is how other people view my culture so many people view Mexicans as bad or not too smart or that Mexicans cant do this or that but every day that is changing andi hope it continues to change.

What I like about my cultural background is the fact that I have one of the best cultures and heritage in the world. I'm proud to say that I'm a Mexican-American guy. Even though I was born here in the states both my parents were born in Mexico. I was privileged enough to go to school here in the states where there is a greater chance of being successful than in Mexico. But I love the Mexican traditions such as "Dia De Los Muertos" and the fact that as a Mexican-American we celebrate Christmas on the 24th not the 25th. I'm so proud of my culture that I teach my children each day the same traditions and heritage my parents thought me growing up!!

I was born here in America, my families background is Mexican. And i will always be grateful for it and love it! My family grew up so close and with so much respect towards others. My culture i believe is all about respect and proper manners. Using this in my classroom will be a must. Teaching kinder will be the perfect opportunity to show them the proper manners and respect to show towards one another. That way they can keep it going through out the years. I wouldn't change anything about my culture but i would love to learn about others, if i love mine so much I'm sure others feel the same. And learning about different cultures will help me understand my students along with their parents.

My cultural background is something I am very proud of. I was born in the United States, and I am considered Mexican- American. I am a proud Hispanic, and our culture is very different from my family up north. Growing up we were always very family oriented. The kids stayed up when there was a party going on so they can also experience the memories. We stayed up for New Years, Birthday Parties, Christmas, anything in celebration with family. While my family up north all kids were supposed to be in bed by 8 no matter if it was a special occasion. Dinners are very big in our family it is not just my mother, father, and sisters, but also my grandma, cousins, uncles, and aunts that join as well. There is nothing I would like to change at all from cultural. Because of my cultural it identifies who I am as a person, and also gave me a huge, close loving family.

I was born in the United States but I am of hispanic culture. Both my mother and father were born in Mexico and I will always be thankful for that. My family grew together being respectful and mannerous, and the food is to die for. Our traditions are fading a bit because we're growing old and tired, but our spirit is always present. I especially like when we go to our ranch and spend the night and make bbq. We dance to our cumbias and simply have fun with no interruption. It's the best time in the world because we're together, in a place where we have no neighbors, dancing, eating, and bonding. There really in't anything I'd ever change because everything I grew up with changed, shaped, and made me who I am today.

I was born in America but my family background is Mexican. What i mostly like about my cultural background is the get togethers. The times when all of the family gets together just to relax and have a good time but mostly the foods we eat, and let's not forget there is also the music we hear at all those reunions. I have always loved my mothers Mexican food and know that I have my family, I like cooking them all those traditional Mexican recipes. Those Mexican traditions/holidays I am passing down to my children is something I also like and am proud of. I don't think I would change anything in my background because I think that's what makes my brackground unique and different.

What I like about my cultural background are the traditions. I was born here in America but my great grandma is Mexican, and since i grew up with my grandma i would speak spanish my whole youth years. I now speak fluent English and now struggle with spanish but its still understandable. Where I grew up, we were close, my whole family has a close relationship, for every holidays we all go to one house and even though we are crowded we make space for us to fit. What i would like to change would be the way mexicans are treated. Mexican Americans get judged the most in my opinion, because some people say well what are you mexican or american, but some people are both and no one should criticize someone by where they come from.

I was born in America, but I was raised Mexican because of my parents and I couldn’t be any prouder of that. I LOVE everything about my culture, but what I really like the most and what really motivates me is how hard-working people are in Mexico. As we all know wages in Mexico are extremely low barely enough to cover one week and I’ve seen very old people going on the streets and finding a way to earn money and that does not mean asking for money on the streets, they work for it. They find different things to sell on the streets even if it means selling a simple bubble gum or selling that delicious Mexican food that makes your mouth water, or men trying to do jobs for other people in exchange for some money. For that and many reasons there is nothing I would change about my culture!

What I like about my cultural background is that my family is full of Mexican pride. I, myself, love that my family is like that we celebrate independence day with Mexican food and we throw a party every year. In my school they bring sweet bread and give out to the whole school. The cultural background that I love the most is this day because of all the food that we eat and make. I love that our grandparents tell us stories of their childhood and makes us do what they used to do and not to have our head on the electronics. I don't think I would like to change anything because its perfect the way it is it just explains our cultural.

I absolutely love my culture and all my families involved in it. I was born here in the United States but my parents, my grandparents, aunts, and uncles are from Mexico. I love how when we get together, its mostly jokes or stories about back in the day. I love how they always make carne asadas , and we always get together on birthday occasion, holidays or sometimes just to visit. I miss how my cousins and I used to hang out all the time and now we are all married, have kids and we are all living in different states. I just wish we can have a family reunion and just spend time together because that's what family is about. That is why I love my culture.

I am proud to be an American by birth and a Mexican by heritage. My father was born in Michoacan and so were all his family before him. My mother is an American, but her parents and their family, all were born in different parts of Mexico. What I like about my culture is all us females learned to cook at such a young age. We learned to make corn and flour tortillas and a lot of delicious food. The men in our family are known to be hard workers. As good as it seems, women and men having their separate skills, I would say that I disagree with the fact that male and females are distinguished in the aspect of a female cannot do what a male can and vice versa. This is something that I wish I could change in my culture. I have actually started by implying it at my home. For example, it's a custom that females are not allowed to go out, that her place is at home, and that the males do as they please. I have asked my husband to not say "because she is a girl she cannot do this, she cannot do that," being a female shouldn't make a difference. I may be wrong, but at my home, females and males are no better than each other, we have equal rights.

What I like about my cultural background is that people around the world think we are the most romantic and express our love in the most intimate ways. On a deeper level, i think that in the Rio Grande Valley where i was born and raised, economically is a poor and low wage community, but that said i admire how we can overcome many challenges of life without money. Family, Values, and Tradition is the most important and valuable asset we treasure in our Mexican culture. So for that reason i would NOT change a thing.........

What I like about my cultural background is how comfortable and common it is to express here in South Texas. Many people here share the same values and behavior so it feels like we're all family. What I wish I could change is for those who do not share the same cultural background, to simply respect mine. I would also encourage more people to express their backgrounds and not be ashamed of their culture.
