The Different Ways of Raising Children
Many people know that children are their future; therefore they want to give all the best things to their children. In different countries, there are different ways of raising children. The children who are raised in the United States are more independent than the children in Hong Kong, because the children in the United States have more freedom, the educational method in the United States really helps the children to learn, and the parents in the United States like to spend more time with their children.
Unlike the children in Hong Kong, the children in the United States have much more freedom. In Hong Kong, most of the parents do not allow their children to have too many outside activities. Even though these are some healthy activities like playing sports, camping and joining the school clubs, the parents do not want their children to spend too much time outside. In contrast, the children who raised in the United States can go outside more freely. In fact, all of the parents are scared of their children having accidents. However, most of the parents in the United States prefer their children to have more outside activities than just stay at home. In addition, most of the children in Hong Kong have no human rights than the children who are raised in the United States. Traditionally, many parents in Hong Kong punish their children by hitting when they make some mistakes. Because of there are no formal laws to protect the children from getting hit, some parents even hit their children without any reasons. On the other hand, the parents in the United States do not hit their children easily because they all know this is not a way to discipline. There are some laws to control the parents who hit their children because children are also human beings. Actually, they have the same human rights as the adults.
Of course, Hong Kong is different from the United States in its educational method. In Hong Kong, the children are required to memorize for their tests. Sometimes, they do not understand the lectures completely. They want to get the good grade, so they have to memorize all the notes. In fact, it does not help the children to learn because they will forget the notes easily, and they will not use the knowledge in their daily lives. In contrast, most of the children in the United States do not need to memorize all the notes. They are required to understand the lectures and the main ideas completely, but they can also get a good grade as the children in Hong Kong do. Furthermore, they really understand and absorb what they learn, so they like to use some of the knowledge in their usual lives. According to the interview with Ivy Ho, she is using the American teaching method to her daughter and Chinese teaching way to her son. However, her daughter always gets better grade than her son does.
As well as not needing to memorize all the notes, the children in the United States have lower pressure than the children who study under the educational method in Hong Kong. Because of the children who study in Hong Kong are required to spend much time in memorizing all the notes, they do not have enough time to relax. Their pressures are gradually increased. However, the children in the United States study without memorizing, so they have enough time to relax and reduce their pressure. While the children in the United States do not have too much homework during vacation, most of the children in Hong Kong have a pile of homework, and they always have a lot of tests after the vacation. As a result, the children in Hong Kong do not really have vacation because they have to use most of the time to study for their tests.
While the children in Hong Kong do not have too much time with their parents, the children in the United States like to spend more time with their parents. Although most of the parents like to spend more time with their children, some of the parents in Hong Kong do not have enough time to stay at home with their children. In Hong Kong, most of the parents are required to work on the weekend; therefore, they do not have any free time to stay with their children. In contract, the parents in the United States like to spend their weekend to stay with their family because most of them do not need to work on the weekend. On the other hand, the parents in the United States and Hong Kong spend their vacation differently. Most of the parents in the United States like to spend their vacation relaxing by traveling with their children; however, many parents in Hong Kong would rather spend their holidays staying at home to sleep or go out with their frienRAB. Most of the parents in Hong Kong think travel with their children is wasting their time and money. In addition, the children also do not have any time to travel because they have too much homework, and they need to study.
In general, many people do not know there are big difference between the ways of raising children in the United States and Hong Kong. Because of the different ways of raising children, the children are very different when they grow up. In general, most of the people think the way children are raised in the United States is better than the way within Hong Kong because the children who are raised in the United States become independent. I hope to see the way of raising children in Hong Kong change in the future.
