Description

This paper examines educational strategies utilized by first-generation Thai immigrants and the ethnic identity of secondgeneration Thai single mother families living within an ethnic network. Thai single mothers tended to stabilize their lives and raise their children while taking advantage of the ethnic network they had built after coming to Japan. In particular, this ethnic network was very effective in passing on Thai culture to the children. On the other hand, despite inheriting Thai language and culture from their mothers, these second-generation Thai immigrants tended to experience a sense that their own ethnic identity had been undermined owing to a general lack of fluency in Thai language compared to that of new immigrants.
