“Familyeducationisdefinedas:
Thephenomenonthat

193)Also,thereisanothersimilar
sayingfromWangJing:
“Thefamilyisthefirstaswellasthelastschoolofmankind.Everyoneisreceivingeducationandparticipatingineducationactivities,consciouslyorunconsciouslyduringhiswholelife.Familyeducationinfluencesindividualsmostprofoundlyandlaststhelongest.”(王婧,2011:

2.3Themethodsoffamilyeducation
ZhangYangmeihasmentioned:
“Influencedbytraditionalculture,Chineseparents
areusuallymoreimperativethandemocratic,whichdonotbenefitchildren’shealthyupbringing.Weshouldputforward“relaxandopen”education.”(张仰媚,2011)Onthe
contrary,ZhangWeisays:
“Americanparentsusuallyrespecttheirchildren’sinterestand
decisions;
thefamilyeducationisdemocraticandopen.Theyoftensolvedifferentkindsof
2
problemsbydiscussingwiththeirchildrenequally.”(张威,2008:
144)
Theparagraphaboveismainlyaboutparents’attitudetotheirchildren;
thereisalso
anotherdifferencebetweenparentsfromthetwocountries.LiXinwritesinhasarticle:
“Chineseparentshaveover-protectedtheirchildren,whichleadtochildren’sdependenceandmakethemdevoidoftheabilitytorecognizeandevaluatetheirownvalueandcapacity.WhileAmericanparentstendtotrainchildrentoliveindependentlyandonlypayattentiontotheirsafety.”(栗新,2006:

孙爱学,2008:

encouragecompetitionratherthancooperation.”(焦潇,2008:

2.6TheenlightenmentfromAmericanfamilyeducation
“Theimportantsignofmodernsocietyisdigitalizationandinformation.Thereisa“digitalgap”ininformationbetweenparentsandchildren.Parentsneedtostudyand“grow

up”continuouslytoshapechildren’shealthysoul.”(李昊凤&
闵正威,2008:
