Chinese families

Especially for Chinese families, we are losing support from the traditional family structure. Although traditional family structure has many shortcomings, it has been there for thousands of years which further help stabilize our society! Now we emigrate more and are under enormous influence of Western culture. Especially while nurturing children, on one hand we have to use the traditional way of nurturing without social support, on the other hand we have little understanding towards the Western way. Chinese parents have no way but to stop there. Parenting is not easy, and for this generation it is even more difficult.

The modern pace is too fast, family structure, values, living environment, living habits, all have changed, and it is a huge change!

Changes in family are even more dramatic. There are more problems and the problems are more complicated especially for Chinese families. Other than such, marriage, life, entertainment and so on could be other matters causing huge impact, and the biggest challenge is education and issues on training of children.
