I doubt if it was just “show.” My father’s parents were from Italy and although they occassionally spoke it to each other, aside from a phrase or word here and there they ALWAYS spoke English to my parents, my sister and me. Grandpa got quite incensed when I asked him to teach me Italian. “Forget Italy! That country never did ANYTHING for this family! You’re an American...you speak American!”
He hated Italy.

I agree...I just didn’t express that properly, but learning English and the ‘customs’ were paramount, something that quite a few of today’s ‘newcomers’ don’t want to do -AND, sadly, ‘we’ accommodate them.
