The differences between adoption in Japan and America: complete thesis

1. Introduction　
It is obvious that Japan and America have many differences. I experienced those differences firsthand when I went to America for my home-stay program. I went to Minnesota in America from July to August. Minnesota is a big state. I stayed there for one month, and I learned about the differences in culture between America and Japan. I was deeply impressed by the attitude towards adoption in America. Do you know the Adoption system? Adoptions bring together un-related families, usually parents and a child. Adoption is not very popular in Japan. However in America, it is very popular. In fact, an American family hosting my friend adopted a Korean child. And, when I asked my host family about adoption, they replied “We know about an adopted child in the neighborhood”. I was a little surprised that adoption is a common thing in America. I felt that America was more passionate about their adoption system. On the other hand, in Japan, when I asked my parents about adoption, they said “We have no opinions on adoption.”  I could clearly see that the adoption systems in Japan and America were extremely different. To find out why, I did some research. This thesis statement cites the differences in adoption between Japan and America.

2. In Japan 　
Firstly, adoption in Japan is not increasing. Before the war, many people in Japan viewed adoption as slavery. Many children were adopted purely for economic purposes. Another reason was to enable succession to the head of the family, or to take over the family business.  Before the war, adoption was more for economic and utilitarian purposes rather than the welfare of the child. Of course, not all adoptions at that time were for these reasons. Those children who were born from unexpected pregnancies were generally given to childless couples during the 1970s.. It was practiced in secret. In 1973, these practices came to light and an obstetrician placed an article about adoption in a newspaper. After this, adoption was reexamined and legal guidelines were built to protect the child.
Also, in Japan blood-relationships are a lot more important than in America. I believe this to be related to Confucianism. Because adoption in Japan is not filtered, when a parent and child are formed, the relationship is seen as artificial. Adoption in Japan has a lot of different meanings to different people. For the reasons stated above, I think that the adoption system in Japan is in a grey area. And the purposes for adopting are various.

3. In US
In the US, it is important that an adoption is in the best interests of the child. In other words, the aim of adoption in America is to give an adoptive parent the opportunity to raise a child, mostly in a more suitable environment. In Japan, many adoptions are admitted. However, America has a very strict adoption process. For example, if you want to adopt a child, you must go to a court in America. It is quite rare for a couple to be accepted in court. America is stricter than Japan about its adoption system. By this, freedom surrounding the adoption system is severe in America. America’s adoption system succeeds to exclude utilitarian purposes, like Japan. The basic importance of America’s adoption system is the children’s welfare. Some reasons for adopting in America were observed, and it seems that a lot of the time, a child is promptly put up for adoption after birth. This is due to religion, as many Americans are Christian. The abortion act is forbidden in Christianity. Therefore, many children who are born from unexpected pregnancies are put up for adoption. And they are cherished by their adoptive parents.
Next, I researched the differences between Christianity and Confucianism. Many Japanese people have Confucian thoughts. Firstly, I introduced American adoptions from a Christian perspective. Christians believe in neighborly love... In Japan, religious rules are not as important. That’s because religion is not rooted in Japan’s history. On the other hand, in Confucian, they hold an importance on blood-relations. It is the most important thing in Confucianism.
Confucianism is a Chinese ethical and philosophical system developed from the teachings of the Chinese philosopher Confucius. It spread to Japan when it was learnt by an Emporer, who thought it scholarly and economical... However, it is rare in Japan to see Confucianism as a religion. Confucian is deeply related to funerals and the view of life and death in Japan. A Buddhist mortuary tablet and a Buddhist memorial services originate from Confucian. Confucian filtered into Asia.
Christianity is a monotheistic and Abrahamic religion based on the life and teaching of Jesus as presented in canonical gospels and New Testament writings. It also considers the Hebrew Bible, which is known as the Old Testament, to be canonical. Adherents of the Christian faith are known as Christians. In America, Christian rules are deeply integrated in the Christian believer. My host family prayed to God every dinner. At first, I was surprised about it.        

4. Conclusion　
The above- mentioned items are the differences between adoption in Japan and America. I got the impression that adoption system is deeply related to religious thoughts. I felt that the different religious rules created different adoption systems. When I searched about the different adoption systems in Japan and America, I became interested in adoption systems around the world.. What I have discovered about adoption, including my trip to Minnesota has given me better insight in different cultures.

Presentation about adoption

＊Hello.
I introduce about different of adoption between Japan and America.
＊１　I chose this theme for the reason why I learned about adoption in America.
＊２　When I learned about it, I felt that it is not popular adoption in Japan.
Do you know adoption child in Japan? I don’t know, and I hadn't heard it around me.
However, it is not rare adoption in America. That’s because I met a adopted child in near my host family house.
＊３　My host father said, adopted children so many in America.
And I want to search this theme.
 Adoption is formed parent and child relation in nothing parent and child relation for artificially.

＊１　First, I explain about adoption in Japan.
When Japan before the war, adoption is thought as same as slave for many people.
＊２　It had what someone's own child turn adopted child by economically reason. Other reason is succession to the head position in a family and succession to take over the family business.  Thinking before the war in Japan to adoption, it is valid opinion more economically and utilitarian than welfare for children. Of course, all adoption in Japan was not doing for economically and utilitarian reason.
＊３　Also, there are some children born by unexpected pregnancy. After they were born soon, real mother gave couple of nothing child in the nineteen seventies in Japan. It was secret. A case of secret came to light. That’s because in 1973, an obstetrician in Miyagi placed advertisement about adoption in a newspaper. That Another, I realized that in Japan adoption has strong motion into blood relationship better than America.
＊４　This is related to Confucianism I think. It is important for Confucianism to have blood relationship. That’s because, I consider that formed parent and child relation in nothing parent and child relation for artificially, adoption not filtered in Japan. And, adoption in Japan has a lot meaning.

＊１　Next, I explain about adoption in America.
＊２　what adoption in American important is the best interests of the child. In other words, the aim of adoption in America is to give an adoptive parent instead of real parent for the child by whom it is not given though suitable binging-up is needed. Other, it is rare that a state admit adoption of adult people. America is stricter than Japan about adoption system. By this, freedom into the adoption system is severe in America. America’s adoption system succeeds to exclude utilitarian purpose like Japan. The basic important things of America’s adoption system are children’s welfare I feel. There are some which were observed as a reason adoption is performance briskly in the United States. It is religion view.
＊３　Many of Americans are Christian. The abortion act is forbidden into Christianity. That’s because, many children born by unexpected pregnancy become adoption children. And they are cherished by adoptive parent.

＊１　The above- mentioned items are the different of adoption between Japan and America. I think religion  is the most biggest reason in different of adoption between Japan and America I think.

That’s all. Thank you for a listening.

BR 2-12: Farm animals

"Some farmers play music while their sheep are milking. It makes the sheep produce more milk. (p.13.)"

This book introduce about farm animals. There are a lot of animals in the farm. I was surprised it so many in the farms. Do you know how many kind of animals in the farm? I think that Sheep and chicken and caw and bird and so on. I introduce some farm animals.

I introduce pigs and piglet. Pigs are often muddy, but they keep their huts dry and clean that this book said. I thought pigs are smelly. However, this book said that pigs are so clean. Pigs have a very good sense of smell. They can be trained to sniff out rare mushrooms. This page's graphic is so cute. I like piglet very much, but I do not like pigs. That's because, pigs are not cute I think.

Next, I introduce about ducks and geese. Geese live in groups. A group of geese is called a gaggle that this book said. When I was a child, geese lived in the river near may ground mother's house. I liked to give some food to geese.

I like this book very much. Some graphic are so interesting. If you like some animals, you should read it.

The different of adoption between Japan and America

1. Introduction　
It is obvious that Japan and America have many difference things. There are a experienced those difference things firsthand when I went to America for home-stay program. I went to Minnesota in America from July to August. Minnesota is a big continent. I stayed there one month, and I learned about different culture between America and Japan in Minnesota. Then, I was deeply impressed by attitude, system and so on of adoption between Japan and America. Do you know Adoption system? Adoption is formed parent and child relation in nothing parent and child relation for artificially. I think that adoption is not popular in Japan. However in America, it is so popular. In fact, American family hosting my friend is adopted Korean child. And, when I asked about adoption for my host family, “We know adopted child in the neighborhood” they said. I was a little surprised that adoption is familiar things in America. I felt that American is magnanimous about adoption system. The other side in Japan, when I ask my parents about adoption, they said “we have not thinking about adoption.” I felt doubt that between Japan and America have many difference things in adoption when it with my own eyes. I think that adoption system in Japan and adoption system in America has many different. And, I want to search about it. Thesis statement cites difference in adoption between Japan and America. The following is it.

2. In Japan 　
First, I think that adoption system not grow in Japan. When Japan before the war, adoption is thought as same as slave for many people. It had what someone's own child turn adopted child by economically reason. Other reason is succession to the head position in a family and succession to take over the family business.  Thinking before the war in Japan to adoption, it is valid opinion more economically and utilitarian than welfare for children. Of course, all adoption in Japan was not doing for economically and utilitarian reason. Also, there are some children born by unexpected pregnancy. After they were born soon, real mother gave couple of nothing child in the nineteen seventies in Japan. It was secret. A case of secret came to light. That’s because in 1973, an obstetrician in Miyagi placed advertisement about adoption in a newspaper. That was how it all started, a right and protection of child be reexamined. And a legal revised about adoption.
Another, I realized that in Japan adoption has strong motion into blood relationship better than America. This is related to Confucianism I think. It is important for Confucianism to have blood relationship. That’s because, I consider that formed parent and child relation in nothing parent and child relation for artificially, adoption not filtered in Japan. And, adoption in Japan has a lot meaning. For the reason stated above, I think that adoption system in Japan is green. And purpose into adoption is various reasons in Japan.

3. In US
The US side, what adoption in American important is the best interests of the child. In other words, the aim of adoption in America is to give an adoptive parent instead of real parent for the child by whom it is not given though suitable binging-up is needed. Also, admit range is so wide of people’s freedom in Japan. However, in America has a strict rule in adoption system. For example, if you want to get adoption child, you must go to a court in America. Other, it is rare that a state admit adoption of adult people. America is stricter than Japan about adoption system. By this, freedom into the adoption system is severe in America. America’s adoption system succeeds to exclude utilitarian purpose like Japan. The basic important things of America’s adoption system are children’s welfare I feel. There are some which were observed as a reason adoption is performance briskly in the United States. It is religion view. Many of Americans are Christian. The abortion act is forbidden into Christianity. That’s because, many children born by unexpected pregnancy become adoption children. And they are cherished by adoptive parent.
Next, I searched about between Christian and Confucianism. Many Japanese people have Confucian thought. First, I introduce about adoption in America come from Christian thought. Christen has neighborly love. And, they important about neighborly love and Christianity. In Japan, it is not important to hold religion rules. That’s because, I think don’t take root to hold religion rules in Japan. The other side in Confucian, they important about connection with blood. It is the most important things to connection with blood in Confucian.
Confucianism is a Chinese ethical and philosophical system developed from the teachings of the Chinese philosopher Confucius. In Japan, Confucianism was received as a scholarly, economy thought and learning of an emperor. And it is rare that Confucian is religion in Japan. However, Confucian is deeply related to a funeral and view of life and death in Japan. A Buddhist mortuary tablet and a Buddhist memorial service are originated in Confucian. Confucian is filtered into Asia.
Christianity is a monotheistic and Abrahamic religion based on the life and teaching of Jesus as presented in canonical gospels and New Testament writings. It also considers the Hebrew Bible, which is known as the Old Tastement, to be canonical. Adherents of the Christian faith are known as Christians. In America, Christian rure is deeply filtered in the Christian believer. My host family was pray to God every dinner. First, I was surprised about it.        

4. Conclusion　
The above- mentioned items are the different of adoption between Japan and America. I got the impression that adoption system is deeply related to religion thought.
