In traditional East Asian cultures, high value is assigned to family harmony and filial piety coupled with the expectation that elders will be honored and obeyed. A lifetime of such expectations shapes how elders perceive their role and status in the family. Problems can arise when younger, less traditional, generations do not share these expectations. This article describes a solution-focused approach that facilitates the family in creating a beneficial harmony in situations of cultural dissonance. Family members are empowered to draw on personal strengths in which multiple worldviews and values of individual members are recognized, incorporated, and negotiated.
在传统东亚文化中，家庭和谐与孝顺备受重视，人们期望长辈得到尊重和服从。一生的这种期望塑造了长辈对自己在家庭中角色和地位的认知。当较年轻、不太传统的几代人不认同这些期望时，问题就可能出现。本文介绍了一种以解决问题为导向的方法，这种方法有助于家庭在文化冲突的情况下创造有益的和谐。家庭成员被赋予权力，利用个人优势，在其中，个体成员的多种世界观和价值观得到认可、融合和协商。
