Such children are often called "banana people". Most of them Born and raised under the influence of Western society and Western culture, they gradually forget their homeland and mother tongue, and some even do not consider China to be their homeland. I read an article online discussing whether Chinese mothers should go abroad to give birth to their children, and what are the pros and cons of giving birth abroad. The author said, "More and more people are interested in traveling across the ocean to give birth to their children abroad, just like the urban nouveau riche. A survey conducted on the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and other institutions It shows that nearly 40% of doctors and masters are considering giving birth to a child abroad."

There is certainly a reason why these senior intellectuals plan this way. From a child's perspective, children born abroad can have an international identity and enjoy relatively complete social welfare systems abroad. Taking education as an example, it costs about 200,000 yuan per year for a middle school student to study in the UK, and about 400,000 to 500,000 yuan to study in the United States and Canada. If the child has local nationality, this cost will be greatly reduced, and this cost saving is very attractive to parents who want their children to receive Western higher education. " In recent years, Hong Kong and Los Angeles in the United States have successfully opened "confinement hospitals" and "confinement centers" that are crowded with guests, attracting many expectant mothers from mainland China, Hong Kong, and South Korea. Generally speaking, It costs at least more than 6,000 US dollars to give birth to a child in the United States. In addition, the services of a confinement center cost at least 20,000 to 30,000 US dollars. A "confinement center" in the United States launched a "casual style and petty bourgeoisie" two years ago. "Maternity Suite", the service team provides "full worry-free service" to expectant mothers going to the United States, from visa consultation, planning to go to the United States, to airport pick-up, drivers, aunts, chefs and nursery nurses, so that expectant mothers can To enjoy international services like the stars, you need to book a room in advance to give birth to a child in such a "confinement center". It usually takes six months to a year in advance to ensure that there is a room when you check in.

< p>A mother who gave birth to a child in Canada said: “The process of giving birth to a child in Canada made me feel what multiculturalism is, but there are also conflicts in internationalization! I had a caesarean section. The doctor who operated on me was French. The nurse who helped the doctor get the instruments was a nurse who immigrated from Hong Kong. The nurse who later took care of me was an Indian immigrant. After I gave birth to a child, the child naturally had Canadian citizenship and was considered to be of Chinese descent. Magazines talk about internationalization every day, and I think this is also a reflection of internationalization. I think that although the cost of giving birth to a child in Canada is much higher than that of having a child in China, it will be more logical for him to come to Canada to study in the future after he has Canadian citizenship, unlike when I went abroad and spent all the effort to feed him. Moreover, children enjoy Canada’s benefits and do not have to pay huge fees to go to school. ”

This is also the original intention of many parents to choose to have children abroad, and the internationalization of children also begins with having children abroad.

Since having children has moved towards internationalization, then Letting these internationalized Chinese children learn Chinese culture and their own mother tongue is also a big thing that "internationalized families" need to consider and plan for. I appreciate these parents who send their daughters back to China every year to learn Chinese and understand Chinese culture. , their approach may provide a practical "combination of Chinese and Western" education methods and reference for parents and expectant parents who are looking forward to internationalization.
