The USA is a society formed by many different immigrant cultures that produced a new and mixed culture. Most Americans celebrate different customs which started in other countries and start several new traditions and cultures.
They tend to live independently, and communicate directly, honestly and informally with their families, friends and colleagues.
Americans always keep advancing with the times. In America, it is relatively common for both parents to work, and American women are equal partners in marriage.
In the USA, the most common family unit consists of the parents and children living under one roof. Most American children are taught to compete, through organized sports and education, as well as speak out their minds and have confidence to stand up for what they believe in. Many immigrant families also feature several generations living under one roof, with younger family members respecting the elders' needs and valuing their opinions.
When people from different cultures get married and have children, they may have issues when it comes to maintaining their unique traditions and mixing shared customs at the same time. However, with a little effort, children in these families can benefit from having both outlooks and traditions. Children who are raised bilingually can also benefit in future careers and learn to make decisions better than monolingual kids.
A. Many Americans find happy life is important.
B. They are also taught to respect their parents at all costs.
C. It can be a challenge to find the perfect balance between cultures.

E. American children refuse to follow their parents' advice and always argue with them.
F. Changing rather than sticking to tradition is considered by many Americans as improvement.
