the issues that you talk about are present in Pakistan as well, the video of some girls school chicas kissing were quite infamous on youtube just recently.

Expectation that your kids will have the same passion for Pakistan as you do is a wrong expectation, it simply will not happen. and when you go to your grandkids it would be even less. look at italian americans, few generations down and they share very little with italians, each generation is more and more different from ppl from their country of origin. Is that necessarily bad?

My folks were born in India, cities I have never been to, cities that hold meaning to me as the birthplace of my parents, grandparents etc. a sense that this is where my family comes from, but that is not where they always lived..what about places the family came from before, as generations pass you have passion for stuff from a few generations ao and the rest is history that is of interest to you but would it hold the same meaning to you that it did to you great greatgreat great garndparents? I doubt it

Think about it for yourselves. dont set such expectations for your kids.

And while you may be worried about their interactiosn with the opposite gender and while that is something one is more concerned about in the west more than in Pakistan. Parental guidance plays a big role. We all know people born and raised in Uk, US or Canada and how varied they are, even after living in teh same city and going to the same school.

Wait… your parents were born in India, and you never lived in Pakistan… so you are an Indian
