It was posed as a "what if" question to learn whether the family is prepared for the possibility. It is not the same as having a German exchange student. German culture is not all that different from U.S. culture, although it is different. Thai culture, on the other hand, is far removed from U.S. culture. In our home, my wife has about eight images on a shelf, along with water, some cotton flowers, candles, etc. She puts out food every week and sits and chants almost daily. Sure, that might be on the extreme side but that doesn't mean that others don't practice to some extent.
