10. 1. What is the current family trend in Viet Nam? • The Vietnamese family now exists in two major forms: nuclear families (two generations) and extended families (from three generations upwards). The nuclear family is the most common. 2. What are the reasons for the current trend? Western values have been adopted into Vietnamese society. Today, many young people embrace their freedoom and independence. Besides, they can afford to buy their own house/ flat and take care of their children without depending on their parents. Some of them work in other provinces or abroad, so they live far away from their parents.
11. 3. Do you think children are happier growing up in extended families? • Yes, I do. When living with members of their extended family, young children can develop relationships with adults other than their parents. They can also play with cousins that are around their ages.
