Most of the research and analysis of the conflicts between mother and daughter and on how to solve the conflicts eventually analyze the integration of Chinese and Western culture。 They explore the misunderstanding and the generation gap, as well as different status and values in the relationship between the mother and daughter。 Chen Aiming said:“The conflict between mother and daughter is not only a representation of literature and novel structure framework, it represents in fact is the conflict between Chinese culture and American culture, a kind of Eastern and Western binary cultural opposition。”(Cheng 231) Zhang Ziqing said:“The mothers in The Joy Luck Club shape their daughters with their own aesthetic standards of image, plan their daughters’ future with their idea。 Their ideals are built on the suffering of the people in the old China and the lessons learned from the lessons learned, and are lack of social reality of the United States, which causes a misunderstanding of language and culture。”(Zhang 194) Conflicts happen when mothers and daughters have so many misunderstandings。 In this paper, I study the conflicts between the mothers and the daughters, and study the factors that have caused the conflicts。文献综述

3。 The Relationship between the Mothers and the Daughters

3。1 The conflicts between the mothers and the daughters

 The conflict exists frequently in The Joy Luck Club, because the mothers and daughters, the two generations, are born and grow in different countries。 The mothers can’t forget the oriental traditional education they have accepted from childhood。 They think that it is as unalterable principles that children should listen to their parents’ discipline and mothers should love her children。 What is agreed by most Chinese is that the family represents the rights and obligations of parents to their children and the relationship between them。 However, Americans think that personal values, self realization and independence are the most important。 Children who grow up in America would rather search for success alone, no matter happiness or pain, than accept the mother’s warning and advice completely。 So the daughters are not able to understand their mothers’ behavior。 In the beginning, the daughters believe that American culture is far superior to Chinese culture。 They are ashamed of their mother’s work in the department store, and they are angry at their mothers’ making a display of them。 They are clearly integrated into the mainstream culture of the United States。 Gong Linda and Wei’s conflict is the most prominent。 The mother hopes to reflect the value of their own existence by the daughter, and hopes the success of her daughter can bring honor to the family, but the daughter is convinced that“I am myself”, and refuses the intervention of her mother。 Li Na Sinclair and Ruth are married to Americans, and their mothers are called as “foreigner”。 They worship the Americans and their culture, so they are willing to sacrifice everything for their husbands。 Wei Frye holds that mothers’ requirements at their wedding make her lose face。 What can we see from it is that daughters are impatient on mothers’ Chinese conversation。 When mothers explain some kinds of intention to them with broken English, the girls laugh at their mothers’ broken English and think that their brains are not flexible。 Happiness what mothers believe is not necessarily in the eyes of their daughters。来,自,优.尔:论;文*网www.youerw.com +QQ752018766-

 Mothers do not understand some of the behavior of the daughters who are born in the United States at the same time。 They are puzzled because the behavior of the daughters was completely different from the Chinese culture。 Ying Yin does not understand the AA between Li Na and her husband。 For example, when they buy that they need in their life, they should use their money separately。 This is a common thing in western countries but is very difficult to be accepted by Chinese。 In China, wives and husbands must bear all the responsibilities of the family together。 Besides, when Jin Mei quarreled with her mother, Su Yuan said in Chinese:“There are only two daughters, the obedient and the disobedient。 In my house, only the obedient daughter is allowed to live。”In Chinese culture, children have to listen to their parents for no reason at all。 浅析《喜福会》家庭教育观(2):http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_86911.html
