Tigranes, remember that you might try to raise your kid whoever you want, but that kid is going ot have his/her own mind, and one day he might as well choose to be a 100% armenian, or convert to budhism and forget his greek ancenstry and other ancesntries for good. Raising a child in Northern America is not as easy for any minority culture. So sorry, you can try but life will only show what can happen. In fact, if you insist your child not to follow a culture, then there is a big chance he/she will for sure.
And yes, Armenians are afraid of assimiliating, and this is only true in the diaspora, not armenia, so what??? don't we leave in democratic societies where we can practice whatever religion we want, we chose to practice the religion the anti-assimiliation for example. If you really dislike Armenians why waste time on them, move on and find a culture where people embrace you.
Would you act as cocky in front of Italian-Americans, not really, because they are far more dominant than anything greek that walked on the earth. Hey, you could even be a deadman by now.
