Abstract

“When I was young, children had to wait until the adults sat at the table before they could even touch their chopsticks!” Ms Xu, a 55-year-old retiree and a volunteer at a local parents’ school, told me. “In the past, we Chinese paid great attention to matters of seniority and propriety…. We used to respect our parents and teachers. Now it’s all different.
