I don't know, I think the people in a country that's mostly Muslim don't really have to think about being Muslim and what it means or defend our faith on a daily basis the way that we do here. A lot of hijabis go back home and are encouraged to take off the hijab, whereas Americans are pretty respectful (on the whole). I see a lot of people "back home" who are pretty relaxed and not educated about the faith just like here. I think the parents probably have more to do with it than the nation of residence.
