Childcare Practices In Three Asian Countries, Shamah Md-Yunus
Childcare Practices In Three Asian Countries, Shamah Md-Yunus
Faculty Research and Creative Activity
Childcare practices such as feeding, toilet training, sleeping arrangement and discipline in three Asian countries (Chinese, Japan, and India) are compared. These countries differ from each other in culture, religion, language and ethnic makeup from Euro-American culture. The differences in childcare practices are broadly related to the differences in family values, traditions, and religions among these countries. Educational implications of sensitivity to cultural differences are also discussed.
