HOW THEY RAISED THEIR CHILD
Part 5: The Western’s ways

• From an early age, most children get their own rooms and
never sleep with their parents.
• American parents help their kids to become self-reliant by
making them do things such as washing, cleaning, and
cooking for themselves from the time they are very small.
To help to develop their children’s confidence, American
parents always show respect for them and let them voice
their opinions on family issues. Right after children finish
school, most of them will move out of the family home and
start a truly independent life.
Part 5: The Western’s ways
Part 5: The Vietnam’s ways

• Many Vietnamese parents think their most important role

is to protect their children and provide them with a
happy and wealthy childhood. Babies often sleep with
their parents, and many children do not get to sleep in
their own beds until they finish primary school.
• While many children in rural areas have to work to
contribute to the household expenses, most children in
urban areas do not have to do anything but study. In
both urban and rural areas, parents seldom ask for their
children's opinions before making family choices.
Children do not move out of the family home before they
get married. Even then, many parents still want the
couple to live with them in the same house.
