Abstract

Family is the living cell of society, so family culture plays an important role in preserving and promoting traditional cultural identity of the nation. Vietnamese family culture is formed through thousands of years of history and maintained "family lifestyle" for a long tradition. Family lifestyle is the basis of the traditional Vietnamese family culture and is understood to be the private habits, customs and education and rules in the family. The core of the family lifestyle always strives for the spirit of the original source and encourages filial piety, caring for parents, worshiping ancestors, respecting family, faithfulness, gratitude, filial piety in behavior, etc. The Vietnamese family culture now includes many good traditional elements and new elements of the time such as democratic relations, equality between family members, respect for personal freedom, encouraging the development of individual creativity, etc. Vietnamese family culture is rich in humanity, humaneness, appreciates ethical values, builds a culture of order, discipline and trains the human soul and nature. The exchange and integration with cultures in the world has brought many opportunities for Vietnamese families, but also influenced the family lifestyle in Vietnam.
