      Pretty much teaching your child to respect others is called "abuse" because according to these nut jobs you have to earn a child's respect.

    I'm a Japanese nursery teacher.
    (using a translator.)
    We don't instruct you to clean up the chair.
    "When the chair is out, what happens to people who want to pass?" I ask the children.
    And they think for themselves what to do.
    If you force it, you won't learn it. You can learn it because you think on your own.

      Yeah, that’s super important. If you can’t teach respect and that you should automatically show respect to those that are older and in authority, you won’t get anywhere. My teenage sister who’s 15 constantly gives me an attitude, especially if I ask her to do something or want to do something my way instead of hers. She really tells me “you did nothing for me to respect you” even though when she was younger, and I was in high school, I always cooked, did the dishes, made sure their homework was done, did cleaning and even ironing for 2 hours sometime. Now that I’m going to school full time and working full time so that we could buy a bigger house, she’s told me “You’re not my sister.” I’m kinda concerned about this generation.

      I am currently working as a kindergarten teacher in Finland, and the day is pretty much the same as shown in the video, with slight differences. However, it is true many countries (like Spain, my home country) do not have kindergarten or pre-school operate like this... which is a shame, because having children learn basic routines, get good habits and be independent (while learning academical stuff) are strong assets for their future adult life in society.
      All I can say to defend my country's early childood education is that our kindergartens only work with children from 0 to almost 3 years old, cos then children from 3 to 6 years old start infant education at school, and they are at school only 5 hours a day (unlike Japan or Finland, where kids stay for around 8 hours or even more). Which means, some of these routines you see them do in the video HAVE to be 'trained' at home, rather than at school, because there is simply not enough time for everything.

But as I see it, in Japan they use music to reinforce everything they really want the children learn. As good as music can be for children to learn stuff, I also think it should not be overused haha. But music education since an early age can be great for children development.

      Don’t use God’s Name in vain, Exodus 20:7
      “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.”
      Lord Jesus Christ is coming back everyone, please don’t worship celebrities and entertainment, focus on Him alone. I promise there’s more to life than money, partying, homosexuality and music. Hell is real, repent from sinning confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, I know He will if you’re sincere. Anyone who thinks the Name of Lord Jesus Christ is a joke, boldly mocks and scorns Him or takes pleasure in people who do is in for a big unpleasant surprise on judgement day IF they don’t repent and follow Lord Jesus Christ. Hell is very hot, people please repent! In the mighty name of Lord Jesus Christ, Amen 🙏💪✝️💜❤️✝️!
      Idolatry such as, Islam, Catholicism, Sangomaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Santa Clausism, Confucianism, New Age, Science, Evolution, halloweenism, Harry Potterism, Politics, Donald Trumpism, Easter Bunnyism and other religions/faiths that are outside Biblical Christianity lead to hell! Don’t believe them, believe the Almighty God the Father of Lord Jesus Christ, who begot Him. Our Creator, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is mighty, He doesn’t need a woman to beget a son, He is God. I choose to put my faith in a God who can do anything and everything, a God who has unlimited and infinite power to beget!
      So, it’s time to confess that Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and to believe that He died and rose from the grave after three days and you shall be saved if you only obey Him by praying, worshipping, praising, reading the Bible and living holy and righteously according to the Bible. You have to endure until the end, carry your cross daily and build your relationship with God by following Lord Jesus daily until the end. You must never renounce your faith in The Lord Jesus Christ, there’s hell awaiting those who reject/deny Lord Jesus Christ and those who continue living sinfully, even the Christians who don’t want to repent will face the same fate, so please repent beloved people, in Lord Jesus Christ’s mighty and precious Name, Amen. ✝️❤️

      I mean, to me, that would get boring. Singing 1-2 times every single day before eating? Just don't feel right. Also, remember how many manners, etiquettes and unwritten rules Japan has, not even adults can remember them all. And then combine that with a ton of work hours, stressful jobs, sexual harrassement on trains, and you got yourself the worst possible mental breakdown of your life.

They learn how to skip reponsibility and are quick to blame all their misfortunes on others like migrants and foreign countries (see Yaelra R. comment). The Japanese lost the war but they kept their discipline and organization. Maybe the Americans should have lost the war after all for the sake of their kids?

      Those are the oldest kids in the centre & have no doubt been there since 6 months old or so. Not at all unusual to not have tantrums in that setting, at least in Australia & I'm sure most places. First week in the room with the youngest kids would be a VERY different story!
      Even just the tantrums the kids throw when told they have to sit at a table to eat & eat the food they're served! But peer group pressure wins out over time & they learn what's expected (while still refusing to eat identical food at home/throwing tantrums if they don't get extras etc)

    It’s so interesting and incredible to see the early childcare system in Japan. As an ECE teacher myself, most of the children I work with come from broken homes. A lot of the parents that we have are heavily associated with gangs and drugs. Because of this, our children have many troubles with their learning abilities and discipline which can cause my job to be a bit stressful at times. It saddens me when I think about these children going back home so I always have to remind myself to be the best teacher I can be for these kids despite the challenges that I might face. I genuinely love my job because I love making a difference in their life and even getting to know the parents. I will never agree with what these parents get up to in their homes, but they will have my respect and I have come to find that most of these parents are actually quite pleasant to talk to. It’s so lovely knowing that there are childcares like the one in the video where the children (and teachers) seem very happy and you can’t see an ounce of trauma in a child’s eye. I respect these teachers a lot and I respect all teachers that genuinely care for our children. Each early childhood centre of each community will face different challenges, but we all have the same job. ありがとう for this video and for anybody reading this ️🌸

      Thank you for doing that job! My sons started a new daycare two months ago. They used to be in a daycare with kids with no problem, across the street from the MIT. Most parents worked at the MIT and around. We now moved away from Boston area. Some kids in their new daycare are in the exact situation you are describing and talking with my oldest son’s teacher (pre-k), she is facing the same issues with some of the kids there. Issues at home and the kids being violent at school due to these issues. It breaks my heart to know some kids are not born with the same chances as others. And the job the teachers do during the day, when the kids are with them is tremendously important. It gives them stability, which is all they need to grow.

Children of 3 and 4 years old are too young to be expected to behave perfectly - meltdowns and tantrums are a normal developmental phase for children at this age. It is normal for them to make noise and occasionally behave poorly. It would not be acceptable in this preschool, apparently, or in wider Japanese society and that is a concern.

      This is a learned behaviour though. I teach preschool, and it is teaching children to share, take turns to learn to respect themselves and others, to listen and be kind. Children learn the expectations of their teachers and the ''culture'' of a childcare centre. I.e the routines that make up their day and how to interact with people, to make friends and the rules around these friendships...how to behave in their environment. This Japanese centre seems very similar to how NZ preschools are (where I teach), we just have a more free play environment. Like what iyou see at the beginning of the clip, right down to the notebook system (I use this especially for infants and toddlers).
      Throughout the day, children are invited into activities of interest or to extend on prior learning from previous days and weeks. For example we would do inquiry based learning, where if a child or children showed an interest in something we would explore it in more depth, but it wouldn't be what the whole class would learn - unless they wanted to.

      I think there are many things in Japanese kindergartens that some American parents might not like. For example, about twice a year, parents also help clean the school and school grounds with the kids. There’s an activity, meeting or event almost every month that parents need to attend. There is a prescribed range of school things that the kids could bring - flashy or branded items are not allowed. Most of all, vaccinations are required unless the child is medically unable to receive them. They can’t bring toys to school, wear or use expensive items, Or bring their own snack or dessert. I’m not sure all Americans would be receptive to letting go of some freedoms and independence.

    Make a cat out of clay? Nope they can’t even press down hard enough to make a heart out of the stamper thing.
    They are served horrible food that a lot of children don’t even eat. And we clean it up most of the time.
    I know they showed the best parts of the day. But even so... our best times are nothing like anything shown in the video. They are polite, quick and efficient and nobody cried when they didn’t win the Apple slice.

This isn’t even the “best times”, this is really the A typical for these kids. I grew up part time in Japan. While in maybe America, there’s seriously a lack in child development in SOME areas.

      “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.”
      Lord Jesus Christ is coming back everyone, please don’t worship celebrities and entertainment, focus on Him alone. I promise there’s more to life than money, partying, homosexuality and music. Hell is real, repent from sinning confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, I know He will if you’re sincere. Anyone who thinks the Name of Lord Jesus Christ is a joke, boldly mocks and scorns Him or takes pleasure in people who do is in for a big unpleasant surprise on judgement day IF they don’t repent and follow Lord Jesus Christ. Hell is very hot, people please repent! In the mighty name of Lord Jesus Christ, Amen 🙏💪✝️💜❤️✝️!
      Idolatry such as, Islam, Catholicism, Sangomaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Santa Clausism, Confucianism, New Age, Science, Evolution, halloweenism, Harry Potterism, Politics, Donald Trumpism, Easter Bunnyism and other religions/faiths that are outside Biblical Christianity lead to hell! Don’t believe them, believe the Almighty God the Father of Lord Jesus Christ, who begot Him. Our Creator, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is mighty, He doesn’t need a woman to beget a son, He is God. I choose to put my faith in a God who can do anything and everything, a God who has unlimited and infinite power to beget!
      So, it’s time to confess that Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and to believe that He died and rose from the grave after three days and you shall be saved if you only obey Him by praying, worshipping, praising, reading the Bible and living holy and righteously according to the Bible. You have to endure until the end, carry your cross daily and build your relationship with God by following Lord Jesus daily until the end. You must never renounce your faith in The Lord Jesus Christ, there’s hell awaiting those who reject/deny Lord Jesus Christ and those who continue living sinfully, even the Christians who don’t want to repent will face the same fate, so please repent beloved people, in Lord Jesus Christ’s mighty and precious Name, Amen. ✝️❤️

If strong family structure isn't stressed in the home, it won't be accepted as normal or wanted by that child in the future. This is why the ghettos and lower end neighborhoods are multi generational. If you want to see how most kids will end up, either their family structure, values, education, income level, etc, just look at their parents.

      @@fauxpas4589 Once again, values are not taught at school, but reinforced. If the values aren't there to begin with you are spinning your wheels. A great example is in the US public school system and where the largest amount of cash is usually sunk into schools, the worse the outcome of student achievement. This doesn't prove that the more money one puts into a school system, the better the results. What it does do is reveal where the family does not place value on education. If we are going to start somewhere, let's start where it's actually going to work and not just waste everyone's time. In those struggling areas, let's push for bringing back a strong nuclear family and really push to bring those that lead those families into the education process.

    Wow! This is every childcare teachers dream! I work with 2-3 yr olds (14 of them). And it is a everyday struggle I feel like quitting all the time. My students are so disrespectful to me and my assistant. Also mean to each other. No matter how much we redirect them and show them love. They destroy everything new that we get in the classroom. They scream at us, spit at us, punch at us, tell us to shut up and tune out everything we say. And they are only 2-3. Its so frustrating. Then there are parents that complain about the smallest of things like muddy shoes. But don't understand how HARD it is to be a early childhood educator. Not to mention all the thousands of state rules and regulations. 3 steps just to clean one table (I have 6 tables in my room) and you have to clean them after each segment (example. Transitioning from play time to lunch time) *sigh* Wash your hands before and after EVERYTHING (example. Before putting the children lunch on the table and after) its ridiculousness. My skin is so dry from washing my hands that they are sore and peeling I am 24 and my hands look 60. That's just the beginning. And we don't get paid enough for what we do. It is so frustrating and overrated. I am burnt out .

There is just so much that is different in the way of respect and boundaries that children in Japan get taught from a young age that all children need to be taught. I'm 27 and my hands are currently cracking and bleeding from over washing and every year they get worse.
      I have also unfortunately seen all of the behaviour that you have experienced as been working in nursery settings for just over 8 years and haven't always been with the under 2s. Also completely agree with not being paid enough for what we all do.

      You may want to invest in lotion bars, many are made for and by nurses that also have to wash their hands many times a day, are safe, approved and some antibacterial as well. I used one when I worked daycare, it saved my hands. Also consider having your own small private daycare with just a few kids, you would make more money and be better able to control activities and have a closer relationship with the parents. Meaning then you guys can really talk and compare notes and be on the same track. Private childcare has been so much more rewarding for me than working for a boss. Childcare isn't business to me, it is grooming the future. I am considering to start my own small private daycare while getting certified for elementary school education.. so I can keep my small group together for longer and truly explore their potential instead of sending them into the machine.

As well as little details on what the child ate, activies played, crafts done, how well they got along etc. At my sons school shoes are always removed at the door as the kiddos take naps on fold out pads on the ground. I pack his lunch but a healthy hot lunch is also available. I can also check in on him while he's there via my cell phone or laptop as the rooms contain cameras. This is not an above average school as far as price. My child only goes for 3 hours per day, 4x a week for socialization and so I can get some work done (I work from home).

    I’m a preschool teacher in the States. I can say that this has given me many ideas but the sad reality is we have been overwhelmed with the behavior obstacles of our little ones so much that we are not able to implement fun things like we used to!
    Over the years parents refuse to discipline their children to respect authority. This happened right before, through and after the pandemic.
    If we have our movement times you can bet on children running around the class, hitting other children, throwing fits, or when being asked to go to the cool down corner the children hit teachers.
    Because of low staffing we must take attention away from the class to deal with the undisciplined children (thanks for your at home prep, parents 😅), not to mention the exhaustion of the teachers. Just ranting now, but I wish I made enough to have a gym membership and to be able to do meal box subscriptions for better health and wellness.
    All ranting aside, I do love what I do even if it is hard here in the states. Very thankful to do something most don’t have the strength to do, and thankful for the laughs of children each day!

Every adult is always on a tight schedule, overworked, overtired and as a result not so patient and not that much engaging. Its not that they dont want to. They just cant. Its not possible to juggle 2 Jobs, a home, a adult relationship, extended family, friends and a child/children and be 100% attentive.
      Children sense that and it shows. They want and need attention. And they will get it. And if we teach them that they only will have their special and individual care and connection by missbehaving, we are in for a rough ride. So is the kid.
      There is a saying:
      A Kid making problems is a Kid having problems.
      The problems we face are made by society and politics. Its not the Kids.

    I saw some masks and assumed this video was from some time during the covid pandemic, and then I noticed the video is from 4 years ago! It’s really cool that masks are normalized in Japan, cold and flu season would go a lot more smoothly if people wore masks when they felt sick!

      Also for pollen allergy. 60% of japanese are suffering from cedar pollen. Masks are indispensable.

      I used to live in an area in the US with a high Asian population (college town with special grants for Asian students) and seeing masks pre-Covid was very common. Funny, no one cared about seeing them until it Covid, then the community took to Facebook to rant about seeing masks. Sad, just sad.

      I don’t know if this is fact or not so don’t necessarily take my word for it but I think the air quality is also slightly worse so masks are common especially in people with weaker lungs (again I think I heard this somewhere, I don’t know for a fact if it’s true)

      I believe you may be right. I definitely know China wears masks specifically for that purpose because of the many factories dispensing pollution.

    So so SO much quieter than American daycares. Japanese daycares are so peaceful in comparison.

      He didn't give up. He knew that time is very valuable in the movies industry, so he proceeded expecting a good edit of the whole scene with some cgi maybe :p
