  • Summary

    Chapter 3 presents a grandmother’s perspective on child rearing and cultural values in the household of two second-generation Chinese immigrant children. It explores the distribution of childcare responsibilities across generations, the values imparted to and instilled in the children, and the management of caring and teaching across languages at home. Drawing upon both narratives and recorded and transcribed interactions, it examines the family’s use of both Chinese and English during a range of recurrent speech events, such as having dinner, reading stories before bed, and doing homework after school.
