Differences Between the US and Vietnam
Tri Nguyen (Vietnam)
I am Vietnamese. I have been in the USA for one and a half years. There is a culture clash between my country’s culture and the USA.
My school was strict about conversation about sexuality. They don’t want their student knowing about it. In contrast, in the USA, middle school students will be taught about sexuality. I think that is a good way because it can help students not to be scared and shy about sexuality.
I don’t know why my country’s teachers don’t teach about sexuality. I think they don’t want their students to be more aware about sexuality and it can cause their students to have sex soon. The students really want to know about it. Because it can help them prevent disease and not have babies. Birth control helps the girls not have abortions.
Also, the seniors and disabled have the benefit because when they are old, they have priority everywhere on the bus. Parking belongs to the handicapped.
The USA is paradise because education is very important. If you have education, you will more easily find a job. In my country, it’s not easy.
