The task of educators is to constantly replenish both the active and passive vocabulary of children.

The task of parents is to responsibly prepare for the appearance of a child, familiarize themselves with the types of parenting and determine the preschool development of their child, so that it is comprehensive and complete at every stage of his growing up.

The Japanese parenting system

The Japanese upbringing of children is of great interest all over the world. Such a system is based on three educational stages:

Up to 5 years old - "king". The child is allowed everything, the parents only care about the baby and try to please all his desires;
From 5 to 15 years old - "slave". The norms of social behavior are laid, compliance with all rules is required, the fulfillment of labor duties;
From 15 years old - "adult". Receiving adult rights in society, after 15 years of age, children are obliged to clearly know and fulfill all responsibilities, obey the rules of the family and society, and honor traditions.

It should be understood that the main task of Japanese pedagogy is to educate a person who knows how to work harmoniously in a team, this is a very important quality for life in Japanese society. But a child brought up on the principle of group consciousness encounters great difficulties in case of need to think independently.

Stages and results of Japanese parenting

Ordinary Japanese live their whole life in a system of strict rules that prescribe how to act in various life situations, departing from which a person falls out of the system and becomes an outcast. The basis of Japanese morality is that the interests of society are higher than those of the individual. Japanese children learn this from early childhood, and the greatest punishment for them is the so-called "threat of alienation." With such punishment, the child is opposed to any group or is ignored (boycotted) by the family, this is the morally most difficult punishment for Japanese children. That is why, with such a cruel measure in their arsenal, parents never raise their voices at children, do not read lectures, and do not use corporal punishment and restraint of freedom.

These facts should be taken into account by the adherents of the Japanese parenting system in order to understand that, allowing their child to be all up to 5 years old, it will need to be put into a rigid framework after. Such a sharp change in the educational process, which is not based on historical traditions and national mentality, can adversely affect the fragile child's psyche.
