Queens Public Library Hosts Nov. 4 Online Chinese Talk: Preserving Chinese Family Values While Winning Children's Trust
New York City, New York — The New Americans Program of Queens Public Library will host an online talk in Chinese, “Two Sets of Expectations, One Connection: How to Preserve Chinese Family Values While Winning Your Children's Trust,” on Wednesday, November 4, from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time (4:00 to 5:00 p.m. Pacific), presented by licensed psychologist Dr. Elsa Lee.
Children growing up in the United States encounter school life, peer relationships and social norms that may differ from their parents' Chinese cultural background. Parents and children can hold different understandings of what “respect” means, how much autonomy a child should have, and how opinions should be expressed.
Starting from everyday parenting, the workshop will explore how cultural background shapes parents' expectations, and how, when disagreements arise, understanding and communication can help parents accept their children while passing on the family values they cherish.
The talk will be held on Zoom. Join via the talk's Zoom entry (Queens Public Library), Meeting ID: 879 1151 3344, Passcode: 257654.
