Cultural Notes  文化注释

典型的美国家庭是由父母及他们未婚的孩子构成的一种核心家庭。一对美国夫妇有两三个孩子,甚至更多些,都是很常见的。美国人的独立意识很强,每个成年人都应有自立的能力,特别是经济上。小孩高中毕业就不依靠父母生活。有些成年人即使与父母生活在同一城市里,他们也愿意另找住房生活,从不在经济上依靠父母。有不少高中生甚至初中生在晚上或周末打工赚零钱,以支持社交或生活所需的费用。许多大学生读大学也是靠自己假期打工赚回生活费来完成学业的。如果一位已工作的成年人还与父母同住的话,他会被伙伴们嘲笑。?
美国人对子女的爱,体现方式与中国人不同,他们注重孩子独立生活能力的培养,父母的责任就是把孩子培养成有自立能力的人。
