American Family (Journal #14)

Actually, I don’t have much communication or interaction with children in the United States. So, I will just discuss what I have seen and read from books or something like that. I think the children in the United States have a lot of rights and protections form their family and government. Most of them have good educational conditions. They soon become very independence and have their own decisions in daily life. The ways which they express the love to their grandfather, grandmother or parents are different from my country. As you know, in my country as well as other Asian countries, the children have to obey their grandfather, grandmother, or parents to stop doing something, although they really want to do that. But here the children sometime don’t obey and they can decide what they can do. They have less pressure from studying like children in my country. They have a lot of communications at school and extracurricular activities, so they are improved social knowledge than the children in my country
