Differences of Family Values Between China and AmericaAbstract :This paper tries to make a comparison of different family values between China and US, which appeared in many fields, for instance, the American emphasis the individualism but Chinese focus on the collectivism, the relationship between family members and their attitudes to each other are also quite different,the life style influenced by family values are varied. Reasons for these differences are complex, including different customs, cultures and social backgrounds and so on.Key words: family values, life styles, cultures, differences.Ⅰ.IntroductionFamily is the most basic unit of all human society. It reflects the ethical values of a society, its cultural characteristics and the unique features of a nation. People begin to learn anything about the world and their culture through the family they are brought up in. What you think, how you act, even your language, are all transmitted through the family from the wider cultural context.Family values are the core in the research of cultural values, and it has a huge influence on people’s thoughts and behaviors. So if we want to get a glimpse of the cultures of two different countries, it is necessary to know their different family values. In this paper we will analyze family values from different aspects, including the decisive family values, the attitude to the family members and their relationships, and the influences of family values.Ⅱ.The differences of family values.A.The individualism VS. the collectivismThe American emphasize the personal independence, while Chinese emphasize on the whole family, not any individual member. Children in America have more freedom than that in China. Their parents rarely interfere with their private affairs, and usually try to enhance children’s all-around abilities when they are young. Theyhandle their own affairs themselves and try to get support from their colleagues or experts who work in the relevant field, and their family members only give suggestions to them. The key point of its society is freedom. Obviously, we Chinese pay more attention to the interest of whole family than that of any individual’s. In China, children usually live with their parents even after they are grown-up, since Chinese people want a more united family and closer relationship between family members. The living style in China is different compared with that in America. Chinese people like to live with their parents and they think this kind of living style may help them have more opportunity to understand other family members. This kind of living style can narrow the gap between family members and when anybody faces with a problem, the others can help him effectively and efficiently. The living style also reflects that Chinese people mainly emphasize the whole family but not the individuals, which is quite different from Americans.B.The attitude to the family members and their relationships in China andAmerica.Chinese people have a big family with variety of relatives, which may be easy to cause competition and suspicion. So in order to maintain order and family harmony, they particularly advocate showing respect to their seniority in the light of the theory of law and discipline rite of Confucius. And 'Act you role well' is the key to a harmonious family relationship. All the family members should be ranked strictly and according to their position in the family hierarchy they would be treated separately and be required to do what they should do. So in traditional Chinese family, the elder is highly respected. Parents bring up their children, then after parents are getting old, it is their children’s responsibility and duty to care for them and give them both material and spiritual support. In the traditional Chinese family, father was always the centre. It is not because the feudal concept that man is superior to woman, but also for what man has earned is the main source of family’s incoming and usually man earns more money than woman. And woman is responsible for the family house working. Though most household affairs are solved and decided by mother, the most important thing related to the whole family are determined by father. Between parents andchildren, parents are given more privilege and right to control their children. To most Chinese parents, a good child means to be obedient and docile. It is normal for parents to arrange everything for their children.To Americans, it is normal that parents and children are separate; reunion is abnormal. Parents bring up children and the children continue to raise the offspring, so the aged is expelled to the society. For the attitude to bring up the children, American parents consider that they have the legal liability, but in a sense, the children should take responsibility for their behaviors. Americans sniff at the concept of filial piety and think it restrains their self-awareness and ego-development. Parents and their children don't need dependency relationship. In contrast, they should establish a kind of allowance system so as to instill the basic concept of self-dignity and self-love into their children. As a result, although children would be grateful for their parents' favors, they do not think they have the obligation to pay back. In America, if the parents still live together with their adult children, they should pay board wages and accommodation fee to children. And the same to their adult children who still live with their parents.The primary purpose of an American family is to advance the happiness, the equality and the freedom of every family member. Americans praise self-centered and deal with the family members and family affairs rationally. For the sake of themselves, they deem that family should make sacrifice. Family’s honor and unity are less important than that in Chinese society. In an American family, the democratic idea of equality is prevalent. Father and mother have equal right to make decision on family affairs and their children are given right to vote.C. Comparison of life style influenced by family values1. Different Financial StyleIn China,family members are financially dependent,that is to say all of the family members should help each other,especially when he or she meets the financial problems,which seems that people have the responsibility for helping their family members to overcome the difficulties. During the daily life,children should take care of their old parents financially even parents have the possibility to rely onthemselves. In America, family members are financially independent. Americans appreciate the individuality which requires them at first to get an independent financial freedom. That means they do not rely on their parents or family members when they grow up. Sometimes American thinks it is a kind of shame to be supported by their kind red members. That is the reason why in the case the father and the son felt at ease when they bought tickets for each other.2. Different Life StyleIn China , a stable life style is much appreciated by people. As it has already been discussed above, the strong family tie in China has been taken its shape for thousand years long. Family members and relatives prefer to live together in terms of convenience which could reflect the Chinese “guanxi” vividly. Even after the implementation of Open Policy from 1980s,though the traditional lifestyle is influences a lot,people still want to live as close as possible to their family members,relatives and friends. However,in America,there is no such a strong family tie as same as that in China,therefore,their life style are very mobile. Meanwhile, this life style is also influenced by their personal values, such as self-reliance,hard work,and a tie between achieving success in life,personal achievement etc,which encourage Americans to work all of the world for achieving their career goals and success.3. Different Public FestivalsThere are several festivals which come of family unity in Chinese official holidays, such as Spring Festival,Tomb–sweeping Day, Qixi Jie and Mid-autumn Festival. The most important festival is the Spring Festival existing in the history for almost over 2000 years long. During this festival, all family and relatives get together, which is the very precious chance for people to enlarge and strengthen family ties. In America,Chiristmas Day,Hallow-mas,Saint Valentine's Day,Thanksgiving Day are the most important holidays coming of Christianity. The most significant festival is the Christmas Day. Before the festival,all Americans also come back from their works for this big day;however,this festival is much more religious for the family members even though they do have the activities of family reunion.Ⅲ. ConclusionThe cultural differences between China and America are reflected in almost all aspects of family life. The present study focuses on various major aspects,such as the different family decisive values,different family relationship and attitudes, and influences caused by family values. It’s not just simply listing some phenomena and analyzing the cultural explanation . The intention of the study is to promote a better understanding between Chinese and American people by comparing the family values. We would like to say if we want to live peacefully and harmoniously under the same roof,the best thing we must do is to make an understanding between Chinese people and American people. Meanwhile,a good understanding of the difference will surely facilitate the cross-cultural communication of two peoples.【References】[1] HALL, E, F. The Hidden Dimension[M].

Sino-Us family valuescontrastAmerican family valuesWhen mentioning the difference of family values between Chinese and Americans , we may think firstly that Chinese people pay more attention to the family than Americans. However , it is just a fault. In my opinion, on account of the following matters, the fact is that the American family value is better than Chinese.Firstly, the relationship of the couple is stable in America. American people havemany opposite friends before they get married, while they become very loyal to each other after they are married. They respect each other, trust each other and take care of each other. In public, we can see American couples watch their children, and at the same time they have intimate conversations ,and they look like very casual and sweet. The phenomenon is rarely appeared in China, especially on these old couples.Secondly, every father has a strong sense of responsibility. In the library, in the supermarket or in the entertainment place, wherever the father goes, he always takesher children with him. But the mother is very free. She can get rid of the children's bother and do whatever she wants . This is a sharp contrast with the Male chauvinist which dominates in Chinese family.Thirdly, Americans are doing with families as basic units.When joining a party, going on a vacation, or being invited by colleagues to their houses, Americans are naturally joinging them with the whole family. This way of gathering is good for the consolidation of friendship not only between the family members but also between the friends.Fourthly, family is always in the first place. Many companies generally do not schedule a meeting after 4 am, because parents are going to pick their children from school. Many Americans have more of a sacrifice on the business for the family. A woman would rather resign her job after she gives birth to a baby. It is very common in the United States that everyone is willing to give up any perfect job for his or her family. However, it is quite different fin China. In most cases, the husband may participate the entertainment outside, or go out for travealling with his colleagues, leaving hiefamily aside.The family value Americans lives by seems strange to a Chinese people. As a result, we my find their actions confusing, even unbelievable. Nevertheless, nothing can conquer American family value, because it makes the unique character of the great nationality. This is actually great wealth of the United States, which makes America into a powerful nation in the world.Chinese family values Actually, there are a lot of dominant differences of family values betweenAmerica and China which derived from many traditional and historical concepts. First of all, as the individual ,we advocate that we should make contributions to our family , our society and our country. As we are very young, we are taught to be ready to make any sacrifice for our nation instead of our family, even giving up our precious lives. On the other hand , parents are the authority of a family, so we have to respect them and obey them under any circumstance. However, these are not advocated in the United States.American parents often teach their children to beindependent . Democracy is advocated in the family, so each member has gained the equal rights in the family status. Each individual is told that he has his right to choose his own life style, no one can stop him. Therefore ,in the American people's eyes, democracy and independence are the most significant elements to made up their lives.The other thing is that in China most people regard the house as their symbol of wealth. So having the private house is the main tendency of Chinese people. Because of this, the housing price is rising continually inChina to a degree that a number of people cannot afford it. And the housing problem has become a serious problem to limit people's living standard. Nevertheless, although America is the most developed nation in the world, its housing privatisation rate is well below China's. Many American people prefer to cohabitate instead of buying the expensive house by them.One another thing is that Chinese people regard money as rather an important role in their daily life. More and more people spend most of their time on work to get adequatemoney to support their family. In spite of weekends or vacations, people would rather look for part-time job than enjoy their holiday. It seems that Chinese always say we work day by day, and earn more money for our future generations. This is quite different from Americans. In their eyes, Life is so short, and alive is our great happiness. They just need to live in their own life, and let our children to live depending upon themselves.Because of the difference of traditional and historical concepts, the United Stateds and China are poles apart in our family values.While the two kinds of family values are in accordance with the Fundamental realities of each country . This will contribute the two countries to become the powerful nations in the world.。

The last but not the least, it needs parents set an example, andexpress the great importance of model.Background of intercultural :We humans cannot live in a culture-free situation ,nor can we survive without communication .In today's "shrinking"world ,our communication behaviour is extended from that within our community to that among and between others,especially the communication between different culture.Nowadays multiculturalism plays a more significant part in the development of society as the trend of globalization, therefore our group made a research about the role of multiculturalism in social development.Under this background, we gathered some reference materials from Xinhua a b stract and Chinese spring and autumn. Comparison:Much evidence exists documenting the significance of one’s family education for educational. The right family education can help us develop an attitude toward ourselves and what we can become; can help us develop expectations concerning our education. It is in the environment created by the family that we receive informal education, and also encouragement, support, and models of behaviour for formal education pursuit.The parents is the child’s long-life teacher in family education, the current parents pay more attention to the family education, but it not equal to that the Chinese parents are good at family education. Family education is a science, an art and has its own character; it is totally differ from school education and social education. Many Chinese would say, “Teach child is an easy thing, and we need not learn it.”The Chinese feel good at them blindly, and teach their child is their inborn ability. Because of this kind of aware, many Chinese use the unsuitable ways, even the foolish ways to teach their child. As a rusty, they spend a lot of time and energy, but not get the best effort.The Chinese parents would like to look at their own child grow up day by day, and want to stay with the child. But the parents just care about the physical needs of a child, and ignore the spiritual needs. There is a gap between the parents and the child because lack of communication, especially the spirit commutation. Many Chinese are not satisfied with the child, although they are excellent enough. They always enlarge their weak points, and fade their strong points. To do like this, they think it is good for the child, but they don’t know they are striking the self- confidence of them.However America parents do different things. The American emphasis on individual, rather than the whole family, affects children in a contradictory way. Their family education is teaching them how to become independent. On the one hand, this form of family education causes them to get more attention, even more power than they should. On the other hand, most of the children whose parents are working outside should have gotten enough attention from either parent. Yet, parents who feel guilty for not having enough time with their children may give them as more material thingsas possible to compensate for lack of attention. And some parents who have job, they always find time to spend with their child.Some American families place more emphasis on the needs and desires of a child than on the child’s social and family responsibilities. After the World War, the Americans start to put their attention to the psychological need of a child. So the psychologist play an increasingly role in society. The Americans began to employ child psychologist, counselor and social worker helping the child shovels the problems which at schools and home. So, from that time, many books on how to raise children became best-sellers. Some of the books offered conflicting advices, and most of them shared the American emphasis on the development of individuals their goals. The current generation of parents is more care about teaching their children responsibility. Although most Americans still hold the basic belief that the major purpose of the family education is tell their children each of its member as individuals.Tocqueville observed the Americans’belief in self-reliance in 1830s: they owe nothing to any man, they except nothing from any man; they acquire the habit of always considering themselves as standing alone and they are apt to imagine that their whole destiny is in their own hands.Influence:the Chinese child has some passive tend more or less, although they are not second to the American on studying. They like working passively and timidly; and they always want to depend on others. Many Chinese child are poor in interpersonal skills and not in the habit of expressing their own ideas; and most of them have no the competence for handing money; the ability of independent living is poor for many children. In China, it is common that some adults still depend on their family to live. In a word, they lack of the ability for adapting the society. But on the other hand, under this kind of family education the Chinese child are good at memorizing. And most of the child learn on purpose, they are told the meaning of study which is for a good job, so they study attentively, without bothering about other things.However, the American child have actively character; they always stay cool, clam and collected in a crisis; they can keep harmonious relationship with people; they like woring actively and daring; they have the perseverance to come over the difficulty; most of them have the creative spirit. They have the confidence and courage to exist as a individual person. As is well known to us , American child are expected to “leave their nest”when they are eighteen, from that time, most of them are wouldn’t depend on their family. In a word, American child can adapt the society successfully. On the other hand, because the parents encourage the child to grow freely, so there are many mischiefs in America. The American too emphasis on individual, so there are many single parent families, as a result, the problem children become more and more obvious.Conclusion:Different culture have different idea on family education.so it will does differentinfluence on their children.What should we do is respect differentculture .otherwise ,we should make up your weakness.Bibliography :1.Banton,L.L.and Linda

中美家庭价值观差异-翻译中美家庭价值观差异比较研究摘要:本文试图对中美两国在许多领域显现出的不同的家庭价值观进行分析对比,例如:美国人强调个人主义,但是中国人却注重集体精神;家庭成员之间的关系以及他们对于彼此的态度也大不相同;受不同家庭价值观念影响的生活方式也是多种多样的。
造成这些差异的原因是复杂的,它包括两国不同的风俗习惯、文化及社会背景等因素。
关键字:家庭价值观、生活方式、文化、不同点一,简介家庭是所有人类社会最基本的单元。
它反映了一个社会的伦理价值,其文化特色和一个民族的独特功能。
人们通过他出生、成长的家庭环境开始了解世界上的任何东西以及他们的文化。
你的思想,你的行为,甚至你的语言,都是通过家庭在更为广泛的文化背景下习得的。
家庭价值观是文化价值研究的核心,它对于一个人的思想和行为有着巨大的影响。
因此,如果我们想要了解两个不同国家的文化,就很有必要先了解他们不同的家庭价值观念。
在本文中,我们将从不同角度探讨家庭价值观念,当然也包含一些起决定性作用的家庭价值观、家庭成员间的态度以及他们之间的关系。
二,不同的家庭观念(一),个人主义和集体主义美国人十分强调个人的独立性,然而中国人却十分强调整个家庭,当然也并不是所有的中国人都这么认为。
相对于中国而言,美国儿童能够享受到更多的自由。
他们的家长很少干预他们的私人事务,并且非常注重从小锻炼、提高他们的各种能力。
他们可以自己处理自己的事务,并能够不断尝试从他们的同事或这从事相关领域研究的专家那里得到帮助和支持,与此同时,他们的家庭成员只是会给出他们的提供一些意见而已。
这就是美国社会的关键点—自由。
很显然,中国人比起在意某一个人的个人利益而更加在意全家人的共同利益。
在中国,孩子通常和父母一起生活,甚至在他们成年之后。
因为中国人非常希望拥有一个更为团结的家庭组织以及家庭成员之间亲密无间的关系。
因而中国人的这种生活方式和美国人是截然不同的。
中国人喜欢与父母住在一起,他们认为这种生活方式可以帮助他们有更多的机会去了解其他的家庭成员。

In any country, family is an important social unit, the influence can not be ignored and the role of family relationship to the people and people, people and society.Key Words: structure; sense; attach; responsibility.The Different Family Value in Western andChinaIntroductionFamily values in China and America are quite typical, the difference of which are demonstrated in many different ways. Family values reflected the tendency of people’s outlooks. Therefore, the influences of family values are demonstrated in many aspects, such as cultures, social structures and personal development. The analyses of family values can help us to better understand the differences between eastern and western countries in cultures, social structures and personal development as well, as to acquire further insight in culture shock and gap’s in communication.I. The differences between the Western and Chinese family structureThe Chinese people attach great importance to the relationship between blood relatives, therefore, the main characteristics of the Chinese family structure is the big family. Modern Chinese society has two major family structure: nuclear families and extended family. A pair of couples with children, two generation family called core family; three and even four generations of the family is the extended family.By comparison, Westerners about blood relationship and not so much Chinese. In western countries, the nuclear family occupies the absolute dominant position, while the extended family very little, in addition, there are single parent families, single parent families, cohabitation families form. People pay more and more attention to the "nuclear family", while the three generation, lineal relatives by blood and collateral relatives by blood beyond two generation is indifferent.II. The differences between the Western and Chinese family values2.1 Different values between the Western and ChinaDue to the family structure, family values were different. China has five thousand years of history of civilization, the precipitation many excellent culture, also spread a lot of good habits and customs, the Chinese traditional idea of the family is contained in the culture and habits. In Chinese ancient and modern society, theconcept of family firm has to maintain social stability has played a big role, also gave birth to many classical virtues, such as care for the young, harmony of couples, neighborhood unity, still, thrifty, the traditional family concept of Chinese social order has played a role in maintaining the great. However, with the development and change of social environment makes the original family unit is destroyed, personal growth experiences in traditional concept also changes with the times. The original multigenerational phenomenon is rarely exist, replace sb. Is often keep house the next generation, the family unit has not directly represents a family. However, Chinese family values are affected by the traditional family values, the Chinese family values is still strong, the blood relationship, family ethics, is ingrained in the brain, parents, children always one family.2.2 Different historical reasons caused different family valuesIn the Chinese family, has been pursuing a tradition of respect for the elderly. Old people often suffer from family, society is respect. In the Chinese family, the children at a young age dependent on their parents, parents for home made many personal sacrifices, they want their children to obey. When children grow up the responsibility to take care of their parents, but in some cases will continue to rely on their parents.Historically, Chinese family values is very strong, family consciousness is strong, for example the simplest example -- Chinese name, the first general is the family name, and then is the name, name often have a same generation of unified using sign used to living word, name as a symbol of family and family, Chinese put him in the front, on behalf of his name on the back, in a side also proved that in the eyes of the Chinese people, the family is much higher than that of their own, to have a family, after their.By comparison, Westerners about blood relationship and not Chinese so seriously. The foundation of Western society in the personal, Western cultural values of individualism is the core. Praise the value of people, to promote human dignity and the free development of personality. In western families, the relationship between parents and children is more equal. There is not much dependence relation between children and parents, the children after school don't live at home, the young man is proud to stand on one's own. The old parents not to depend on their children as children, also does not have the responsibility to support their parents, both sides does not have so many obligations and responsibilities in the family, the relationship between parents and children equal.Social and family to treat the elderly can still reflect the independence and individualism. Their financial support usually consists of social welfare and healthsystem to reduce the family to rely on. In general, the elderly will find their own friends instead of relying on their children emotionally. The United States of America's parents did not send their children to stay filial thoughts, they encourage adult children to live independently, that once their children marry and settle down as behoove should move out. In most western countries, the elderly pension after real homes and welfare institutions spend, American society in general are for young people. This reflects the difference of family concept of the West from the other side.ConclusionDifferences between western family values in comparison, not to judge who is good and who is not good, but to understand the differences, look different, a better understanding of the western culture. Any national culture has its own characteristics, are worth learning place other nationalities. The differences between the Chinese and Western family values, to some extent reflects the Chinese and Western cultural traditions of different, nothing is absolutely good or bad. Culture is the same, culture is not good or bad, should recognize, respect and learn different culturesBibliography:〚1〛陈春莲.中西传统家庭教育的比较[z]。
中西方价值观不同的英语作文In China, family values are deeply rooted in the culture. Respect for elders, harmony within the family, and filial piety are highly valued. The concept of "filial piety" means respecting and caring for parents and elders, which is seen as a fundamental virtue.

The differences of family education betweenChina and America【Abstract】This paper makes a comparison of family education between China and American . It is well known that family is the first school in children’s life. Family education often play a big part in physical development﹑nature talent and shape characters of children. Chinese parents ruled children’s life, arranged their matters and excessively concerned about the grade points. While American parents respect children, pay attention to ability development and intelligence advancement. We could aware of the defects in our family education from the comparison of family education between China and America, thereby improving our family educational system.Key words: China, America, family education, difference, parents, children, educationBody:Chapter 1Defects of Chinese family educationChinese contemporary family education is greatly influenced by traditional Chinese culture and Chinese custom. It is also conditioned by the feudal family system. First, parents are rulers. Parents are supreme rulers. In one family only what the parents say goes, children have to do as they were told and have no rights to choose what they want. Most of the parents in China do not concern their children’s feeling; because they think what they do for the children is just the children’s needs. Secondly, over-indulgence. Due to the implementation of one-child policy, one child family came in increasing numbers. The Chinese children have been considered as the apple in their parents’ eyes, even like a little emperor in ancient times. So Chinese parents tend to over-indulge their children and try to do almost everything for them. For instance: feeding their children, dressing their children and bathing their children when their children have already old enough to do those things by themselves. Parents help their children to do everything in all aspects of life. We can always see parents in a stream of cars to send and pick their children from school. What’s more, lots of parents fear that their children will face dangers or become bad by the harmful effect of society; they keep their children away from society. They don’t permit their children go to the outside along. Therefore, Chinese children don’t have opportunity to contract with society. Third: laissez-faire economics. In China, it is not surprising that an elementary school child have cell phone, mp4, laptop and digital camera. Parents spent all their hard-earned money on their children. Parents will meet all their children’s requirements on economy.Chapter2Merits of American family educationFirst: respect children, treat them equal. American parents have a high respect for their children’s idea. In order to cultivate children’s self-respect and self-confidence, parents will squat down when they talk with children. American children have the rights to do what they want, their parents never control them, what they will do is just a simple advice. Secondly: focus on independency. The most difference of family education between China and America is that American parents pay more attention to the development of children’s independence. Because they think children must form a self-supporting will and the ability to live by themselves since their childhood. Therefore, it is no strange to see many American children washing clothes, cooking and weeding. Third: economic independence. In America few parents will give pin money to children. Parents encourage children to work and earn money. According to statistics, about 54% American children can not get pin money from parents. American parents give children enough opportunity to contract with society which allows them to be fully trained in various matters since they were young. They think part-time job or something like that can gain their children’s experience and capability to adjust society.Chapter 3Personal opinionsWe may know from what has been said above that Chinese family education remains many problems to be solved. The American family education is worth China learning.Now, please let me put forward some opinions to our family education.First: stress on capability cultivation. Our Chinese parents are excessively cared about their children’s study. In order to make children have good points in study, they do not let children do anything except studying. This leads to the ability shortage of children in daily life. From my point of view, our parents should learn from American parents on family education to offer more opportunities to let children contact with society. Only the child who has tasted bitter without parent’s protection can gain the capability and confidence to adjust society. Secondly: respect children’s choice. In China, children just like parents’ private property. In parents’minds, children should be obedient to them. They make the decision for children and never thought of their feeling. This may lead to a bad result that is children are lack of interest in everything because all the things are arranged by their parents. While the American parents do not put pressure on their children. They believe that children have the right to decide something by themselves. American Parents and children have equal at home. Chinese parents should learn from the experience of American parents. Third: encouraging children. I always see a parent criticizing her child in public but never see a parent who praising her child in public. If the criticize last a long time, the children will be self-contempt. When they face difficulty they can not perform well. American parents encouraged their children to do anything they like. If the child finished it, they will say kind words of praise. This will help a lot on developing children’s confidence.ConclusionIn this paper we have explored the difference of family education between China and America. From above we can see the Chinese family education have some defects and the American family education have more merits than ours. We should not only carry forward the good and traditional part of Chinese family education but also learn from the modern American family education. In this way, our next generation shall grow up healthy and strong.Bibliography:(1)卢勤:《告诉孩子,你真棒》,长江文艺出版社。

Family value is the core in the research of cultural values, and it has a direct influence on people‟s behaviour and thi nking.That is to say ,the values of the society ,to a large extent, depends on people‟s Family values. However,because of the differences of geographical and historical background, traditional cultures, religious and belief, different nations have different family values.With the rapid development of economic globalization, cross-cultural communication between china and America is becoming more and more important and frequent. However, because of different family values, misunderstanding happens commonly in the cross-cultural communication.so it is necessary to know the different family values in different countries. This paper paper aims to help Chinese people and American people to further understand each other by comparing the two counties family values and reduce unnecessary conflicts caused by misunderstanding in cross-cultural communication.Key words:family values; relations between parents and children; marriage; family education; reasonsContentsIntroduction (1)Chapter 1 Definitions of Family, Values and Family Values (2)1.1 Definition of Family (2)1.2 Definition of Family Values (3)1.2.1 The decisive family value of China: collectivism (3)1.2.2 The definitive family value of America: individualism (4)Chapter 2 Differences between Chinese and American Family Values (5)2.1 the differences of relationship between parents and children (5)2.1.1 Chinese relationship between parents and children (5)2.1.2 Ameiricans relationship between parents and children (6)2.2 The concept of Family Education (6)2.2.1 Chinese concept of family education (7)2.2.2 American concept of family education (8)2.3 The concept of Marriage (9)2.3.1 Chinese concept of marriage (9)2.3.2 American concept of marriage (10)Chapter 3 Reasons for the Differences between Chinese and American Family Values (12)3.1 Geographic reason ..................................................... 错误!未定义书签。

Conclusion (14)Bibliography (15)Chapter1 Definitions of Family, Values and Family values (1)1.1 Definiton of Family (1)1.2 Definition of family values (2)1.2.1 The decisive family value of China: collectivism (2)1.2.2 The definitive family value of America: individualism (3)Chapter 2 Differences between Chinese and American Family Values (4)Chapter1 Definitions of Family, Values and Family values 1.1 Definiton of FamilyFamily is the cell of society, generally speaking, family should be defined as a group of people who lived together by bonds of blood, marriage or adoption, to form economicties, to fertilize and to bring up children. Also there is another explanation of family, it says in the word …Family‟ each letter stands for a definite meaning, and that is the letter …F‟ means father, the letter …A‟ stands for "and" ,the letter …M‟ is regarded as mother, the letter …I‟ is I, the letter …L‟ is considered as love, and the last letter …Y‟means "you", so the whole meaning should be …Father and mother I love you‟. We can see that member in a family is made by three people, father, mother and their child in general. In a extended family, members may include father, mother, spouse, son daughter, aunt, uncle, cousin, nephew and grandparents.In ancient society, the family is the basic unit of production ,in modern society, family plays a very important role in distribution ,consumption, and property inheritance ,because different cultures create different family. To understand the historical development of chinese and american families, the basic modal, and the relationship among the family members will undoubtedly help those who are in cross-cultural communication.1.2 Definition of family valuesFamily values are political and social beliefs, as the core of the value system, family values are regarded as the family members‟ norm of behaviors, and the same time, it is also a standard of measuring the norm of conducts. With family values permeate the daily life of each family, both parents and children in a family should comply with the family values. “We know that the most basic relationship in a family is marital relationship, kinship, affinity, and it also includes the affectional and economic relationship generated from those basic relationships, so education, religion, faith and family financial burden-sharing are all included in the family values.”Family values mainly include marriage , relationship between parents and children and family education.Different countries have different family values. Due to the influence of the cultural context ,the relationship among members in china and America are completely different.In a word, Chinese people uphold collectivism while Americans advocate individualism.1.2.1 The decisive family value of China: collectivismCollectivism is the dominant ideology. Since the ancient times, Chinese people always adhere to the idea of "unified" or the idea of "datong". Throughout history, from Qin dynasty to unify the whole country to strengthen centralized to Dong zhongshu burn books and bury Confucian scholars alive, all these show that the ruler want to consolidate the rule of feudalism through a uniform system and thought. In the Socialist society, there is no exception. The difference is that the idea of "unification" of feudal society culture has changed into the socialist society "collectivism". For example, we advocate a harmonious society today, to build a harmonic society still embodies the cultural concept of "unification", and the startingpoint is still the collective and society.(Jian,1999.05)Chinese people put great importance to the collective. They pay more attention to the interest of whole family or the whole group than Americans, they emphasis the interests of the whole collective, in China, public interests are the interests of the individual; public wills are the wills of the individual ;and public values are the values of the individual. All the family members share food, property, and other material wealth, everyone is responsible for the success and prosperity of the whole family, they Shared difficulties and pressure, they think if they do something wrong, it is likely for them to have a bad effect on other members and the whole group ; and if they win a honor, they will probably give the credit to the other members and the whole group.1.2.2 The definitive family value of America: individualismIn contrast to Chinese collectivism,Western culture is diverse. Most westerners are more attention to the development of things and diversity, they emphasize pluralism.In terms of getting along with people, westerners self-centeredness and a strong sense of independence is very obvious.They attaches great importance to personal rights ,interests and freedom, and take the opportunity to play as much as possible their own uniqueness. And the same time ,They tend to be responsible for themselves, they should live on themselves ,especially when they are 18, hand rely on their own ability to achieve success.Their way of survival and quality of life to a great extent, depends on their personal ability, So to some extent, this also promotes the development of their unique personality, which constitutes the diverse elements of western culture .In addition, Americans firmly believe that they can control their own‟s destiny, and they pay more attention to their own freedom of activism than their relationships with other members of the family ,They deal with their own affairs by themselves . If they meet difficulties, they try to get support from their colleagues or experts who work in the relevant field rather than ask for help from their parents and their family members just give suggestions to them.Chapter 2 Differences between Chinese and AmericanFamily Values2.1 the differences of relationship between parents and childrenWhether Americans or Chinese people, families are particularly important for them.In a family, the most basic relationship is filial piety, marriage and family education. Any one family, if do not pay attention to this fundamental relationship, can not be seen as a complete family. Chinese families care more about seniority relation, and the interdependence between family members. Parents emphasis filial piety, the Chinese family believe that families with many children and grandchildren is happiness. On the contrary, in the United States, people pay more attention to individual equality, independence and individual rights, one of the most outstanding concepts are independence and equality. And the cultural differences between China and the United States resulted in the differences in family values, therefore, in order to reduce the misunderstanding in communication between the two countries, and promote the friendly relations between the two countries, it is very necessary to do a comparative analysis between the two countries family values.Because on the concept of parents to educate their children between China and the United States is not the same, American parents focus on developing their children‟s independence and consciousness and they respect the child's own choice. Chinese parents in their children's education more reflect on spoiling their children, they always like to design their children everything in accordance with their own wishes.2.1.1 Chinese relationship between parents and childrenChina's family is usually composed of many people, there will be a lot of relatives in a family, family members are ranked according to seniority, the young should respect the elderly, the elderly care for the young. Respect for the old man is the traditional virtue of China.In China, parents have the right to determine the child's everything, almost everything is determined by their parents, because many parents regard their children as their private property ,for example, what kind of friends they should make, what style of clothes they should wear, which university you should choose, which subject they should be major in at university , and where they should work after graduation, Chinese parents hope that their children‟s work place can be closer to them, and even their marriage, parents hope that the couples coming from the families of equal status. Due to their high expectations for the children, When the child's performance gap with their demands, they complain or blame the child. They always want their children to be the best one in the class or even the whole school.In China, father is the head of the family, and is the center of a home, it is not because the feudal ideology that man is superior to woman but because what man has earned is the main source of family‟s incoming father's income much more than the mother's income , in a family, man is usually stern than woman.and speech less than woman and seldom communicate with their children, when children met difficulties in life or learning will first tell their mother instead of father, woman is often responsible for housekeeping, laundry, cooking, cleaning, although most household affair are decided by the mother, the most important thing is still determined by thefather, with their children, so mother has a more close relationship with their children than their father2.1.2 American relationship between parents and childrenAmerican parents focus on cultivating their kids independence, from their children start to speak, to express their will, the parents do not regard him as a baby. They think children should learn to be independent, and let them know that he is equal with their parents. And parents need to encourage and respect their children ,which are often missing in Asian.they think that their kids should have their own thoughts and their own ideas, so American parents try to develop their children' confidence and independence when their kids are eighteen-year-old they can leave home to create their own career, in America, a lot of kids in high school started to work and earn pocket money, parents do not give money to their children any more, after the children grown up, they should leave their parents to live alone, they should rely on their own ability to buy a car, buy a house, or go to the bank to borrow money, and do not rely on their parents any more. In America, parents and children are friends, American families emphasize happiness and joy, at the same time ,they do not attach importance to filial piety.Americans advocate democracy, equality and freedom. Everyone is equal before the God the relationship between family members is equal and independence, parents will not interfere with the child's affairs and father and mother have a equal right to make a decision on family affairs. However,American children was brought to live separately from their parents,and they are prone to feel lonely.2.2 the concept of Family EducationFrom ancient times to modern times, family education has been playing a very important role in a country education, A great man Deng Xiaoping said, “The basis of a country‟s modernization lies in talents, the basis of talents lies in education, and the basis of education lies in families.” therefore, more and more attention has been paid to family education, and family education has already become a very topic of the society. In life, the family is the first school where parents are children's first teachers. Children are the hope of a nation, family education is the foundation of education for children. In the world, there are many types of family education, family education in each country have demonstrated distinct characteristics, which is closely linked to its culture. American Family education is one of the most famous family education There are great differences in the concepts of education, methods of education aim of education and contents of education between American family education and Chinese family education. Different family education will gain different results.2.2.1 Chinese concept of family educationFamily education is the most fundamental position in education.In China, parents often tell their children, "To be a scholar is to be the top of society", "a young idler, an old beggar," " hope one's children will have a bright future ”or h opes for the daughter to grow up into a phoenix” which indicates that the Chines e parental expect too high of their children high, many parents only care about whether the children have a promising future , a good job , a good life or not .they believe the child‟s primary task is to study diligently, and enter into a famous university they think their child to be admitted to a good university can win glory for the whole family , so Chinese parents would like to provide everything what they can for their children in the process of children‟s growth .all in all , they are willing to sacrifice anything if their children can live better with their help.With the rapid development of social and economy, more and more Chinese parents focus on the cultivating their children, the purpose is to hope that their children will be admitted to prestigious universities, and the same time, Chinese parents ignore the development of their children‟s skills, such as the ability to live independently, social skills, life skills, though many Chinese students graduated from university and get a high diploma,they cannot live independently,and still rely on their parents.In China, some parents regard their children as their private property, and to educate their children as a family affair, and connect study with the child‟s personal future, family honor, happiness, the idea to teach the child for the country is not strong, children become parents tool to achieve the dream they did not achieve when they are young. “We were poor, we have no chance to go to university, so you have to study hard to go to college!" Most Chinese parents thinks like that., This seems to be the only expect of Chinese parents. Then from primary school to university, Chinese parents help to decide their children everything ,such as which university to choose , what major should they choose ,this is the result of Chinese family education, children are taught to listen to their parents. They do everything according to what they are told by their parents. Therefore, in the process of children‟s growth, the most important thing the parents concerning is to pursue a promising future, except for caring children‟s daily life . In order to make their children have a good performance in study , become outstanding , or even become a famous person in the future, they would not let children do anything except studying,except for the basic knowledge that children have to learn at school ,they have to learn various skill, for example, piano, violin, dance, drawing, and so on ,training course may de useful for some students, but the key point is whet her these skills are chosen based on the children‟s interest or not.Traditional Chinese family education stress kindheartedness and obedience. For example, in the film Gua Sha Treament, there is a scene that Datong orderded his son to apologize to his boss‟s son when h e saw his son was fighting with his boss‟s son .because h is son didn‟t apologize to his boss‟s son ,Datong slapped his son in the face , which shocked his boss very deeply . Because ,in America, it is illegal to beat children. They emphasis freedom and justice, and America children have more rights of autonomy.(guan,1998,5).2.2.2 American concept of family educationIn America, individualism plays a very important role in the family education.individual freedom and equality rank at the most important place. They believe that everyone should control their destiny by themselves, in American parents aim at cultivating children‟s ability of independence and the the ability of adapting of environment instead of getting a high point at school, from they are children ,their parents begin to train their ability of independence, for example,the children fall down, parents will not put his arm up , but to encourage them to stand up for themself, they let their children to sleep alone from they are infants rather than Chinese parents, kids to sleep next to their parents .American children have right to decide what they like to do, for example,if they chose a career when they grow up ,their parents just give them suggestions instead of arranging their future.,the decisive right is in the hand of their children and the same time, American parents encourage their child‟s to pursue personal interests with great energy . they regard the child as an independent and equal member in the family, and everyone is equal in the family. for example,if a mother and his daughter go to a music concert together,each of them may buy her own tickets instead of paying the tickets together.American parents respe ct the child‟s personality and dignity, and advocate the idea of self-responsibility and self-control. So American parents focus on cultivating their child‟s ability of independence they believe that children should rely on their strength and effort to grow up.when American child is 18 year old,they can move out of their parents house and start to live on their own.The vast majority of children over the age of 18, they earn his tuition by doing part-time job, some people work part-time job during school to earn living expenses, the children think it is disgraceful to spend their parents money after they grow up and they would be looked down upon by others, and it is very embarrassed. Therefore, they must find a job to achieve economically independent.In the U.S., parents pay attention to cultivate child‟s self-confidence, develop child‟s self-confidence is the primary task of family education, when children encounter difficulties or made a mistake, parents will encourage child to try it again rather than blame, they like to praise the child. when child has a certain self-confidence they are willing to learn. Besides, American parents emphasis develop child‟s responsibility. Let the children learn to wash dishes, wash handkerchief, organize their own beds.Meanwhile, American families emphasis on training children to participate in various associations. and parents are active participants , organizers, service providers,and the same time. Adults encourage children to do logout, rock climbing, jump into the sea and other dangerous sports, kids are happy to participate in these adventures.From an early age, American parents educate their children if you want something, you have to get it through your own efforts, there is no free lunch, parents generally do not give the child the right to inherit property. They think the worst thingin life is to let the child sit idle and enjoy the fruits of others so that children do not have the opportunity to experience their own successes and failures, true happiness comes from their own efforts, even if the family economic situation is very good, parents encourage children to use their own hands labor money, let the children learn to pay insurance costs or part of the fees.2.3 the concept of MarriageMarriage is the union of a man and a woman, who commit to romantically love and care for each other , both of them have the same responsibility of bearing and rearing children together and sharing the burdens and benefits of domestic life. Once two persons get marriage, they should be obligated and loyalty to each other sexually and usually form the interdependent economic and domestic units. And the same time, it is not only the union of two persons ,it is also the union of two families, and the foundation for establishing kinship patterns and family names. However, different countries have different attitude towards marriage.2.3.1 Chinese concept of marriageMarriage is the most important event for most Chinese people, we can say that marriage is the best love between two people. Traditionally, status of wives and husbands are not completely equal in ancient China. Chinese women are considered as the attachments to their husband and they have no social status. A woman is faithful to her husband to the end and lives by “the three obedience and four virtues” Chinese people think that marriage is a major event in their lives and treat marriage as a serious moral question. Chinese parents emphasis on the factor that the families of the bride and bridegroom are of equal position in the economic situation and social scale,love is unnecessary part of a marriage. People over 20 years old should get married ,if a girl is 25 years old still single ,it is a great shame for the traditional Chinese family, for older people , do not get married will be seen as "alternative people", and for many modern young people, they are more likely to become "alternative people." When choosing marriage partners, whether male or female, the character is both valued factors, personality is the most important factor .In addition to the character, a lot of women tend to value the man's ability and economic strength, while men also valued characteristics of the woman's appearance.Chinese marriage is relatively stable. Chinese women wish to live with their husband in their lifetime once they get married. Because , marriage is very important for them,and once a Chinese woman commits to her partner she will follow her husband for the rest life of her. So they are incredibly loyal, As a consequences, Chinese divorce rate by far is much lower than that of the USA.besides,Chinese people emphasis a collective benefited family, and in their opinions, marriage is not a personal problem, but it contains many factors like morals, responsibility, sense of honor and other factors. That is quite different from American concepts of marriage.But with the reform and opening up and development of the socialist market, Chinese modern concept of marriage has also been hit by western culture ,the most outstanding influence is the rising divorce rate, premarital cohabitation, single doctrine, Dink family, extramarital affairs and other social phenomena frequently appear, Chinese people's attitude towards marriage has become increasingly modernized, China's divorce rate is also increasing.3.3.2 American concept of marriageIn America, love is the basis of marriage, without love, marriage is impossible. Many American couples get married as the result of the mutule attraction and affection rather than practical consideration. And they believe that they should find someone that they can live happily with. There is an American proverb, love and marriage, go together like a horse and carriage” if the couple do not love each ot her, it is impossible for them to get married. For American, marriage is a serious issue, they will swear before God at the wedding that they will love each and to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in death do us part. In America, the definitive family value is individualism , they believe everyone is equal, and parents have no right to interfere their marriage. because they believe that marriage is free and it is their individual right, affected by individualism ,American regard marriage as a purely personal matter, so they put individual happiness to the top priority ,they think it is brutal to force two person who do not love each other anymore to live together. Besides, they hold the view that marriage is an action of law, and it is protected by law, so in America, everyone should be responsible for their marriage, and the couple should respect each other. They pay great attention to their appearance not only when they are passionate in love but also after they got married. Unlike Chinese couple, they dress up themselves beautifully when they are passionate in love, but they became careless about their appearance after they are married.In the relationship of marriage, sex is a very important part, but the Chinese and Americans attitudes towards sex is different, In China, people seldom talk about sex. parents would never talk about sex in front of children, they will be shy and their face will turn to red if someone talk about sex in front of them. while in the United States, "sex" is a very open topic, people will communicate with each other, sharing of experiences, to talk about their boyfriend or husband in bed and so on. And this is by no means superficial conversation, but detailed in-depth.In China, sex education classes to the children, it seems so many parents find it difficult to say, but in foreign countries, sex education is essential for a child growing up. It seems that in the United States, the children's education is the bounden duty of parents, many American parents think children should be introduced to the knowledge of sex by themselves, but many people also recognize the child's friends and the media are acting in this role,and the same time,American parents also pay attention to sexual safety education。
