Семьи в разных странах мира, их привычки и их традиции

● Russia

Our country has many peoples (about 150) and traditions, and despite the technological capabilities of the modern world, we carefully preserve the traditions of our ancestors. Namely, the traditional family (i.e. father, mother and children, and in no other way), the male head of the family (which does not disturb the spouses equal rights in love and harmony), marriage only for love and authority of parents for children. The number of children (usually desired) depends only on the parents, and Russia is famous for its large families. Helping children can continue until the very old age of their parents, and grandparents babysit their grandchildren with great pleasure.

● American

semjazachatki family is, first of all, marriage contracts and democracy in all its senses.

What is known about the family values of Americans?

The decision to divorce is made with ease when the former comfort in the relationship is lost.

Prenuptial agreement is the norm in the United States. They are widespread everywhere. In such a document, everything is written down to the smallest detail: from financial obligations in the event of divorce to the division of household responsibilities and the amount of contribution from each half to the family budget.

the feminist sentiment across the ocean is also very solid. the wife, leaving the transport, do not give a hand - she will cope on her own. and the head of the family is absent as such, because in the united states "equality". that is, everyone can be the head of the family.

a family in the united states is not just a couple of romantic lovers who have decided to tie the knot, but a collaboration in which everyone fulfills their duties.

americans discuss all family problems with psychologists. In this country, a personal psychologist is the norm. Almost no family can do without it, and every situation is sorted out to the smallest detail.

Bank accounts. Such an account is available to the wife, husband, children and one more common-for all. How much money is in the husband's account, the wife will not be interested (and vice versa).

Things, cars, housing - everything is bought on credit, which the newlyweds usually take on themselves.

Children in the United States are thought of only after the couple gets back on their feet, gets housing and a solid job. Large families are rare in America.In terms of the number of divorces, America is leading today - the importance of marriage has long and very much shaken in American society.

The rights of the child are almost like those of an adult. Today, a child in the United States rarely remembers about respect for elders, permissiveness prevails in his upbringing, and a public slap in the face can bring a child to court (juvenile justice). Therefore, parents are simply afraid to "educate" their children once again, trying to give them complete freedom.

● japanese

japanese families are patriarchal. The man is invariably the head of the family, and his wife is the shadow of the head of the family. Her task is to take care of the mental/emotional state of her husband and manage the household, as well as manage the family budget. The Japanese wife is virtuous, humble and submissive.

Her husband never hurts her or humiliates her. Cheating husband immoral act is not considered (the wife looks at cheating through her fingers), but the jealousy of the spouse - yes. To date, there are still (though not to the same extent) traditions of marriage of convenience, when the party for an adult child is chosen by parents. Emotions and romance at marriage are not considered decisive.

● Chinese

These people are very careful about the traditions of the country and the family. The influence of modern society is still not accepted by the Chinese, thanks to which all the customs of the country are carefully preserved. One of them is the need for a man to live up to his great-grandchildren. That is, a man must do everything to ensure that his family is not interrupted - give birth to a son, wait for a grandson, etc.

The spouse necessarily takes the name of her husband and after the wedding, her husband's family becomes her concern, and not her own. A childless woman is condemned by both society and relatives. The woman who gave birth to a son is respected by both. A barren woman is not left in the family of her husband, and many women who have given birth to daughters even refuse them directly in the maternity hospital. The harshness of attitudes towards women is most pronounced in rural areas.

Looking at many families from different countries, we can conclude that there are similar and there are different. Starting with their traditions and ending with their behavior in the family circle.
