Abstract
Children form the most vulnerable group in the context of violence, including war, riots, and racial and communal conflicts. They easily become the victims of social, political and cultural injustices. Unimaginable emotional and psychological trauma is endured by kids who are uprooted from their home country and kept apart from their parents. In the course of their personality development and character formation, it will have everlasting repercussions. The novel Ask Me No Questions by Budhos is a riveting investigation of the pain, identity, and cultural estrangement experienced by immigrant children, particularly in post-9/11 America. This article aims to shed light on the emotional and psychological toll that immigrant children and families experience as they strive to rebuild their lives in a foreign land.
