the Mentality of the average Japanese is directly linked to education, which contributed to the formation of his personality since early childhood. Let's talk about socialization, early development and the importance of relationships to every age that  are the basis of Japanese education. 

the 1. Proper socialization

 

for anybody not a secret that life in Japan runs on the principle of “One for all and all for one”. In this country in the first place in all it is team spirit, and even companies are conducting a joint physical flexing, during which workers in the same rhythm doing the exercises and think out loud, to feel like a cog in this huge machinery.

Being young, the kids in Japan are brought up under the influence of the idea that the worst – that is loneliness. No parent under any circumstances will not yell at the child and not scold, and even more, will not raise a hand on him. The Japanese always have the threat of much worse. Punishment is exclusion from home or the child's opposition to any group. For example, parents can tell that all of his classmates would laugh, if he will behave properly. Try to apply this particular technique is not necessary, because saying that someone would make fun of the kid for what he is, can have a negative impact on his nervous system and self-evaluation.

 

eventually, all of the above is the Japanese philosophy: “alone you will never find the place in life. You'll get lost in its maze. So find a community and be true to it”. 

 

Thus, children acquire a sense of guilt and remorse, if it will bring trouble to the parents. The mother also working in a conflict situation not to show his total power over the child, and try to get close to him. Conclusion: fear of alienation and be closer to success.

 

2. Special attention to early development 

 

“After three late” is a book the title of which became a basic principle of education in Japan. The purpose of the Japanese put to grow is not a genius, and a fully developed personality. 

In the first three years of the child and the basis of personality, as in the famous proverb that means that “as you sow, so shall you reap". The maximum effort you need to make in this period: teach the child estestvoispytateley peace, kindness, love to work and create something with their hands – and all this by example. Therefore, Japanese mom mandatory  remain with the child up to three years. They devote themselves entirely to the formation of the child's thinking, putting his interests above your own.

 

3. “All the time” 

 

Interesting sequence in the education of children calculated by the Japanese. According to them, in different periods of life the child should be treated accordingly: 

 

- up To 5 years – a child turning “king”. It is a period of permissiveness, when his every whim is accounted for, to teach him to make choices and to realize himself. 

5 to 15 – a sharp transition in the relationship “slave”. In such a system the grown children learn diligence and responsibility. At this time, they work hard, they need to understand the idea that in the future they can use it. 

15 – the child is treated "as equal". Now within the Japanese way of life depends on who the child is allowed everything, surprisingly disciplined and erudite young man.

 

But for the application of this approach “from-to” the necessary social soil, inherent in a highly developed state. It's about the fact that it is not necessary in the real conditions of the post-Soviet space to implement fully paragraph "permissiveness" and to apply where it is safe. In Japan, children will grow into a very rigid system of rules in which there are clear guidelines how to act in a given situation, and to disobey – that means to be outside of their group. But this can not be allowed, because people in their understanding of – only a part of one big machine, rushing towards progress. That's what makes especially the strict discipline of the Japanese people for centuries.
