Abstract
What is known to us is that family is the first school, in which parents are the first teachers for their children. What’s more, parents are the windows for children to know the society and the world. Therefore, parents’ traditional values play an important role in their children’s growth. There are many types of family education in the world and each of them shows distinctive features and is closely responsive to its traditional value and historical background, economic patterns, social conditions, and education system affect parents’ traditional values. In this paper, to begin with, I compare the two countries’ differences of parents’ traditional values, and then analyzes the causes leading to the differences. The different results of traditional values between China and America are mentioned, too. What’s more, it comes up with some problems in today’s Chinese family education. Last but not least, some suggestions to solve these problems are also provided.
