Therefore, in the process of childrens growth, the nigh important thing the parents concerning is to develop their childrens spirit , except for caring childrens cursory life . In order to make their children have a good performance in study , live keen , or even become a famous person n the future , they would not let children do anything except studying . Contrastively , American parents generally believe that the growth of childeren must hope on their own strength and experiences. Based on this concept , most American parents emphasize much to train their childrens faculty of independence once they are born because they think that children should form a self- hurting will and the capacity to live separately since their childhood . And the capacity comes from the training in the primordial age .In the moving picture ?Gua Sha Treatment? , in that respect is a scene that Datong orderded his son to apologize to his pigeonholes son when his saw his son was trash with his antiques son . Whats much , he slapped his son in the face when his son refused to apologize , which gave his oldtimer aquite a shock .

For Chinese parents, their aim is to do anyting to support their children to get high marks .What forms apparent note to it is , America parents give their children more training near improving abilities . They try to train their children to have the ability of adapting to environmental variety and the ability of living on an individual basis . 3. The methods are different between America and China .

In Chinese family , children dont have to do any housework . (2)Chinese parents encourage the children to excess in social activities . Many children are prevented from exposure to the outer world because their parents worry about childrens being affected by sad things . (3)Chinese parents have a rather strict office toward childrens study . Parents regard the grades as the only standard for future success . Tasks Sea schema is often used in study .Chinese children are tired of doing many extra work ups . So Chinese children spend more time in studying than doing other things . What about America children ? permits talk about the famous film ?The Pacifier? . In the film , it may be unconcious , but Shane Wolfe had let the kids master many skills by training them during the time when he cared them . So American parents bring up their children by the method of permit go but not indulging to exercise childrens abilities of independent living . 4.
