Question
In what ways do the experiences of Samoan children and teenagers differ from your own experiences of growing up? Is there anything in this experience that you wish was part of your growing up?
Solution
- The Samoan children and teenagers did not go to school. They look after the younger siblings at home. But, I go to school regularly and have no such responsibility to look after the youngers.
- No. There is nothing in this experience that I wish was a part of my growing up.
