Today, in VN, the change of society in the process of innovation with the market economy fluctuations, beside my country is processing global, this is impact to all social organizations, social institutionalizedes, social systems, and have family in this. The transformation and development of social has led to the integration and cultural exchange, so today's family is changing and prevailing with model tradition family.
The family with a cell and basic social institutionalized, so family to assume functions social specific: reproductive function, education function, economic function, love function. However, change and exist of family not only to life of personal and to change and exist of social.
Reproductive function is one in four function of family, and this is function special important of family.
The concept of male most important in the family and the habit of birth of the Vietnamese tradition:
After impact of Confucian idea, kindred connection of Viet Nam village to rely on structure male most important in the family.
Girls do household chores at an earlier age than boys. The success of a woman in the eyes of her husband's family is highly valued in how she accomplishes housework and whether she gives birth to her husband's son.
No children are unfilial: In confucian, husbands can divorce wife if they commit one of seven commandments, in which no child is the first reason.
Change of reproductive function of Viet Nam family today.
Reproductive function is independence with sexual function:
Now that contraceptives have been used extensively, couples' sexual life has become a value in itself, independent of reproduction. One can fully meet the needs of sex without necessarily having children. Thus, the birth of a child in modern society today has become a social process - self-conscious. People can take initiative in childbirth, take initiative in the number of children born and the time of childbirth. Independence between reproductive function and sexual function has contributed to changing the reproduction of families in the modern age, which makes the childbirth scientific and medically secure. avoiding the risk of neonatal illness and many other causes that have reduced the mortality of infants and fetuses.
Demand for children:
In the traditional Vietnamese family, the need for children is very clear, the concept of marriage is to have children, the more children as possible and especially to have a son, "1 men more than 10 women". According to our "more crowded children", many children are children, the flock is a happy family. Families with many generations living together, crowded with sons and daughters are one of the norms of the happy family. Lu Xun once said, "In China, getting married early is a blessing, giving birth to many children is also blessed. They are just documents to prove that their parents are blessed, not "human" for "future", so that “Chinese children just need to lay out well Strong or not, not much attention, or not pay attention...”
Today, the need for a large number of children and the necessity of having sons have made fundamental changes in reducing the fertility of women, reducing the number of children in the family and reducing the need for sons. of couples. In cities today, young couples have begun to proactively postpone the birth of their children, extending the foundation period and the honeymoon period of marriage.
Value of the child:
In traditional Vietnamese society, the value of the child is expressed in four aspects: the child is a prerequisite for the sustainability of marriage, the happiness of the family; Females are the labor force of the family production unit; Females are a factor in ensuring the wellbeing of families and their parents' lives when they are old; The children are the successors of the ancestors of the family.
Today, having children continues to be a factor in ensuring the stability of marriage and family well-being, but having children is not enough to have a son. In addition, the maturity of the marriage of modern families depends on many other factors such as psychological, emotional, economic ... rather than the factor of having a son or having a son. in the traditional family.
In short, the reproductive function in Vietnamese families from tradition to the modern Vietnamese family has markedly changed. In traditional Vietnamese society, families are expected to have more children and necessarily have sons, which are influenced by Chinese Confucian thought, as well as less developed societies, mortality High births, low life expectancy, low educational attainment, early marriage, large family size, children are the source of family wealth and labor, no use of contraceptives ... are factors that encourage birth in the traditional Vietnamese family. Today, with the development of society, the development of science and technology, low child mortality, high educational attainment, late marriage age, small family size, the use of preventive measures Thai ... are the factors that reduce the number of children of couples and also the change in the mindset of couples on the issue of reproduction in the modern Vietnamese family.
