Families in Latin America

After visiting Mexico City, Mexico, Richard and Linda Eyre reflect on the family oriented nature of many Latin American families. They discuss how things like eating together as a family, the presence of extended family, children and relatives staying close to home (even for college and work), and the emphasis of respect for your elders (especially grandparents). The Eyres also talk about the importance of learning from other cultures and standing firm in your family beliefs despite societal pressures.
