Its rather simple. The second generation aren’t Pakistani. Due to my job I know my kids will be from some other country other than my homeland and I am okay with that. They don’t need to be proud Pakistanis because they won’t be.

To be Pakistani by default you have to been born there or have citizenship. Otherwise you aren’t Pakistani. You are an American or Frenchie of Pakistani descent.

Don’t you get the citizenship automatically if your parents were born in Pakistan?
