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. I felt that the different of religion rules is born different about adoption systems. When I searched about the different of adoption system between Japan and America, I was interested in adoption system of over the world. I feel nearly about adoption system when I did not search it. What I searched about adoption and I went to Minnesota is glowed up me good personality.
