American Principles in the Education of Children Bashny.Net

Oh, a lot of interesting stuff. Of course, we educate a little differently. You can’t say better or worse than in the United States. parenting We really are different. I think I definitely want to know how they're doing. And they found out with interest.



Editorial "Site" He wants to go on this exciting journey. First, let’s talk about some principles, and then a few traditions that surprise and delight us a little. Something can be adopted. Everyone has their own head on their shoulders. Here we go!



More than once have I heard from some American stars that they are curtailing activities and are going to devote time to their family? Parenting is an important aspect for Americans, even if they are completely absorbed in their careers. Give children maximum free time, participate in their lives, organize family parties as usual.



An interesting trend in recent years is that dads are increasingly fiddling with children. It often happens that mothers build a career much more confident than their men, which means guys and all the cards in hand. Especially if you have enough income for a comfortable lifestyle. Parents often go to remote work together to spend more time with their families.



This does not mean that there are no kindergartens in the United States. But in addition to them, there are clubs of mothers, in which women sit with children in turn, communities at the church, at an educational institution and even at the library, in which children will not only play together, but also gain experience. However, all these associations are not considered part of the education system.

In our country, the phenomenon is widespread when parents are concerned about obtaining their children academic knowledge. Often in the first grade, children are required to read well and have a base in any of the foreign languages. In the United States, they do not bother and sincerely believe that the child will master all this when the time comes, it is difficult for them to accept such realities.



American grandmothers are in no hurry to look after their grandchildren. It is believed that children are the essence of the problem and the headache of parents. If they decide to have children, then they have all the financial and moral resources to solve all the related issues. This will certainly seem strange to us. Well, that's puritanical education.



This principle is not only influenced by education. Americans are quite mobile, can change housing and the region of residence several times in their lives, so very often grandparents live somewhere far away, often in another country. When there is no one to look after the child, parents hire babysitters. These are either women immigrants who work illegally, or teenagers who want to work.



One of the mental American doctrines is multiculturalism. The U.S. is full of expats, and there are many different children in schools. It is in school that the young American is taught that all people, regardless of race, color, or religious beliefs, have equal rights. Therefore, becoming an outcast in the American environment is almost impossible.



Another idea contributes to this. It's that whoever you are, you're an American citizen, that's your strength. Already from the preparatory class, at the beginning of classes, everyone reads an oath of allegiance to America in a choir, and every classroom must have a national flag.



By the way, did you know that U.S. law does not prohibit corporal punishment of children, but in society it is considered a relic of the past and indicates the low moral character of parents? Mention in school or kindergarten that a child is beaten at home by parents can lead to serious proceedings. Punishment of a child is deprivation of entertainment and clarification that he did something wrong. Otherwise, parents can have serious problems.



Interesting facts and traditions

1. In America, a rather informal approach to education, it is rather pragmatic, even at the expense of theoretical knowledge. It may seem that there children learn superficially, but they are much more willing to go to school. And pragmatism is driven by the American mentality.
2. Swearing is a phenomenon from our realities. The United States educates law-abiding citizens and teaches them to make sure others follow the law. This model is generally accepted there, so "yabeds" and "snitchers" are absent as a class.
3. Children never drink with their parents. Alcohol is allowed only from the age of 21. In Germany, for example, you can try it from the age of 16. Our parents can treat us earlier. Children in America almost never sleep with their parents.
4. The tooth fairy and Halloween came from America. There really for a fallen baby tooth you can get money, and on All Saints Day it is customary to break into houses and demand candy.
5. Children in the United States go in diapers for a long time, sometimes up to three or four years, although we try to get rid of diapers as early as possible. Children can also be sent to bed early – at six or seven in the evening – so that parents have at least one free evening.
