Gogol didn’t have a date in the school, but his parents didn’t feel worry about that because at the same ager of their son they didn’t have a date. Ashoke’s was worried that his son joined at the math team and maintained his A average. However, Ashoke and Ashima didn’t suspect that Gogol smoked pot, and when he went to spend time in his friends’ home, they drove to other places to see bands, so he did everything that an American teenager did. Gogol has two personalities because in his house he does everything that his parents wanted from him, and he respects his parent’s culture. However, when he is with friends his friends, he does all things that he likes. I think that it is difficult for a teenager to live under two cultures especially if their parents are strict and don’t accept that their children grow up in a different culture. In many cases that difference creates arguments between parents and children; consequently, most children choose to avoid problems with their parents by embracing the two cultures.
i like the fact that you mention it is very difficult for a teenager to live under two cultures because i'm in the situation and i don't like sometimes. i suggest that you make short summary of the chapter before you start doing your response, you will have a better insight for your response
