RECENT CHANGES IN CHINESE FAMILY LIFE

  Antiquity, conservation and mystery. When it comes to China, these are the very words that come pouring out of our mind. Yet now is the time that the terracotta soldiers draped on the cloak of vogue. As never before in their long history, Chinese families has witnessed untold changes in their daily life.

THE ONE WITH THE WAKE OF THE NEW ERA OF INTERNET

 As the computer technology links the world as never before, our planet has shrunk. Back to 20 years ago, info are conveyed by letters or telegrams. Internet and computer technologies has as well changed what children play and the way they play. In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there’s no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied, and more often than not they involve violence and erotica which is totally unsuitable for children and adolescent. My humble opinion is that children are supposed to gather together and do all the hopping, yelling and crawling when they play as our parents’ generation did. Embrace the nature, shaped up to have zest for life, that is legitimate how children growing up.

THE ONE WHEN CHILDREN ARE MORE AUTONOMOUS 

        “Do what I told ya!” This is just like Chinese parents’ motto right in the past. Children are supposed to act exactly as the way they’re taught from the way they use chopsticks to the kind of people they should marry. For now, Chinese parents are getting way more open minded. Boys are allowed to say no when they didn’t agree with Dad, and it’s all up to the girls themselves to decide to whom they lost their virginity. Yet despite the fact that let children paddle their own canoe is a great step forward, thrashing your children when necessary is still a grand tradition. For instance, you do should punch your child hardly when he’s trying to do shoplifting. That sounds bit of a violence but it will save him from horrible mistakes in the future.
 

Tons of changes there, two outlined, to cut a long speech short.
