Japanese parenting style is totally different from Western style of child-rearing. Unlike in Western countries, Japanese children are encouraged to develop more dependence on their parents. Mothers take the full responsibility of taking care of their children. Fathers can't spend much of their time with them because they work full time to provide for the family.
