I tutored in the elementary school in our town and to a person, the Mexican parents wanted their children to be able to speak and read English. I found them very receptive, very religious, and a very proud people that just wanted their children to have a better life! Don't think it is right to trash any one group the way I have seen Mexicans trashed on this forum.
We all had the good fortune to be born in this Country, but I always wondered what it would be like to be born in a Country like Mexico and look across the border and see a better life for my children. I think a lot of us would be doing anything we could to come to America for a better life for our families just like the Mexicans have done!
