MTV's "First Generation" Now Casting

Do you often have a difficult time juggling your American culture and the culture of the country where your parents grew up? Do your friends have a difficult time communicating with your family due to language barriers? Whether your parents don't agree with the lifestyle you lead in America, or you're having difficulty convincing them to allow you to date, move out of their house, or just hang out with your friends without them there, we want to hear your story!



MTV is looking for people who appear between the ages of 16 and 25 who are struggling with the issues of being a first generation American born citizen. Please email us at firstgeneration@mtv. com and tell us about your story. Make sure to include your name, contact information, and location. Don't forget to attach recent photos of yourself and your family.
