    I would think that it’s a good idea for these parents to expose their foster white kids to European culture, and different types of European culture, depending on what the kids’ background is. I really don’t get what people mean when they say that America’s full of ‘white culture’ at all! Are Ukrainians white? I would say so. Is their culture ‘typically American’? Depends on what you mean by that and what part of the country you’re living in (e.g. the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (and other Orthodox churches run on the old calendar, meaning that Christmas and Easter are at different times). If white parents are expected to celebrate Kwanzaa if they have black foster children (or Chinese New Year if they have Chinese kids), then I don’t see why black (or other minority parents) can’t celebrate, say, Sinterklaus with their adopted (or foster) child who happens to be Dutch-American.
