The traditions of Viet Nam are affected by Chinese culture for a long time. In my family, women had to do all the housework, take care of their children, fathers and husbands. They had to obey and respect their fathers and husbands in solving family problems. Women had no choice in controlling the number of babies they needed, partly they had little knowledge about contraception and as a result of religious and economic requirements.
Concerning work and education, in the past, women almost stayed at home and did housework, looked after children and did agriculture jobs like cultivation, livestock breeding, agricultural process and selling agricultural produce. People thought that women should not study high, what women should learn was how to cook well, how to become a good wife, mother. As a consequence, few women finished secondary school and some studied primary school. In making decisions, women in the past had no right to decide any social and family problems. Their fathers and husbands would decide all problems related to family and society.
