text: "The pressure to assimilate"?????   What a ridiculous statement. 
  
  Immigrants come here because they believe our country and culture offers a better life, especially for their children. They want want their country of origin can't give them. Relative freedom from oppression, economic opportunity and cultural flexibility. 
  
  Assimilation into our culture, even if the multiculturalists won't admit it, is actually the objective.
