How To Raise A Child With Your Asian Wife

By Mi Hung


First, congratulations if you are just married to an Asian wife. The international marriage can be very rewarding, but gradually, you will be asked by one common question: when are you going to have a baby?

In most cases, your Asian wife will agree what her mother says. But what you really should pay attention to it when you are having a baby with your new wife. Here are some key points:

Asian wife will usually go along with her parent's wish. As you may have heard about it, most Asian wives are more likely to just follow her parent's advice. It's not necessarily a bad thing in my opinion. I understand it's not very common in the western culture. But remember, you are married to an Asian family. You need to know how to get used to their culture.

Your children are good looking? If you are in Asia right now, maybe you have heard about things from your friends or your wife's relatives say: your children must be good looking! Ha, that's not a bad thing to get started right?

Language Learning: Ask your wife opinion about it. If your Asian wife was not born and raised in the west, then you and your wife probably speak two languages at home. So which language should you teach your kid first? Should you teach them English or let your wife to teach them? In fact, maybe it's a good idea to get your child to be educated in a bi-lingual environment. Then you child will get much more advantage for the language ability then other kids in Asia

Deal with the culture difference with your Asian wife. Obviously you and your wife are coming from a very different cultural background. This will greatly influence your children if you do not handle it correctly. Something is OK in China might not be all right in the west. Make sure you and your Asian woman are on the same page when it comes to parenting.

Make sure you and your wife on the same page for discipline In my opinion, most women in Asia do not seem to fit to discipline children. They will simply allow them to do anything and buy everything the children want.

Actually, there are lots of private school that are pretty much teaching in the western way. So consider this as another option when it comes to education.
