- I have a question to you folks out in net-land:
-
- I have a student who has lived in the U.S. for the last 10 years (He's
- 16). His father is an American citizen and his mother is a Japanese
- national. He was born in Japan.
-
- The question is:
-
- What's his nationality? Is he an American because of his father's
- heritage and his American residency or is he in some "dual-citizen limbo
- land"? BTW- He *was not* born in an American military hospital or
- facility.
