The girls meet boys every day as school and they are too young to be looking for husbands. Which of the following would be the most appropriate response?
A) The Yangs are very different from us; maybe in time we can convince them that their practices are not right.
B) Every culture has its differences; I think it's valuable that the Yangs are keeping their cultural practices alive.

D) I feel sorry for those girls; they must feel funny in those cultural costumes. Let's talk to the parents and tell them how teens in America feel about such things.
