Of course, they weren't perfect but they wanted to build me (being the firstborn) up to perfection or at least as perfect as a human can be. From my knowledge, Hispanic families tend to build their child's character with perspective. When growing up they give them a feel of what happened to them and why we shouldn't take great opportunities for granted. Males are taught that crying is a sign of weakness and should learn how to confront their problems. Also, that they should be able to maintain a home, do outside and handy work for the house, and lastly, keep a steady job to provide for their family. Females are taught that we should know how to cook, clean the house, take care of the kids, and put her man as forwarding lead. Hispanic fathers are very overprotective of their daughters and teach them that there are no boys in the house, they will not receive support if they are pregnant out of marriage, and well they can't leave the house if they are not
