Hi, I'm a 15-year-old girl in sophomore year of high school. Here's the thing: on my dad's side, there was a couple from Poland who met and came to America. Those people were my great-grandparents. Therefore, when they had a kid, they had my Polish grandpa.
He was not taught any Polish though, but my Dad and uncle, who are his sons, are very proud to be Polish-American.
Anyway, my uncle happens to be an alcoholic or used to be and was quite self-centered, always using me for things like getting back together with my biological aunt who he is no longer with. Now he's with his new wife, my new aunt, who also happens to be Polish and speaks it, but she won't help teach me because she doesn't like me.
Well, basically he said his favorite country was Poland and his favorite region was Europe because there was "only white people" and "no evil immigrants", but he wants to move to Poland even though he's technically American so that would kind of be like being an immigrant when he moves there.
