Readins Passaee
FAMILY LIFE IN THE UNTTEDSTATES
Family life in the United Statesis changing.Twenty-five years ago the
housewifecleaned,cooked,and caredfor the children.Shewas the most important
personin the home.The fatherearnedthe moneyfor the family. He was usuallyout
working all day. He camehometired in the evening.So he did not seethe children
very much,excepton weekends.His work at homewas usuallyoutsidein the yard.
The cookingandthe cleaningwerefor the womenonly.
Thesedays,however,manywomenwork outsidethe home.They can't be at
homewith the childrenall day.They,too, comehometired in the evening.Theydo
not want to spendthe eveningcooking dinner.They do not have time to clean the
houseor washtheclothes.So,who is goingto takecareof the childrennow?Who is
goingto do the housework?

For everyfamily the answerto this questionmay be different.But usuallythe
wife doesnot have to do all the work herself. Today she can get help. One kind of
help is the day-carecenter.Motherscan leavetheir childrenat thesecentersduring
the day. Then they are free to go to work. Most children enjoy thesecenters.There
are toys and gamesand otherchildrento play withAnother kind of help may come from the companya woman works for. The
companymay allow her to work part-time.That way, shecanearnsomemoney.But
she can also be with her children part of every day. But the most important help a
woman can get is from her husband.Today, many men sharethe houseworkwith
their wives.In thesefamiliesthe mencleanthe kitchenanddo the laundry.On some
night, the wife may cook dinner. On other nigths it may be the husband.They may
boitr go shoppingand they may clean the housetogether. The husbandmay also
rp"nd mor. time at homewith the children.Somemen may evenstopworkingfor a
while or work only part-time. For these men there is a new word; the
"househusband".In the United States more and more men are becoming
everyyear.
househusbands
Thesechangesin the homemeanin the family. Fatherscanbe closerto their
children becausethey are at homemore. They can learn to understandtheir children
better.Husbandsand wives may also developtheir marriage.They, too, may have a
betterunderstandingof eachother.

NATIONALISM TEESE DAYS IS FOR THE, FUTTIRE
WhenWorld War tr took placeand our countrywasstill stnrgglingto be free,
the term nationalism was clear. There was nothing ambiguousabout it. You were
arme4 and went to the frontlines. That was nationalism.Do somethingpatriotic by
frghting the colonialists,the imperialists.Write somearticles which confrontedthe
colonial actions.Announceon radio to every cornerof the world that colonialism is
bad and supportthosewho figbt it. That was nationalism.Yes, that is nationalismas
long asyour only goal is to be free from colonialism.
In this kind of nationalism,your enemiesare visible. There is no question
about it. They are the Dutch or the Japanesecolonialists.You are a native; they are
invaders.The colonialists and imperialists were not different from robbers.They
cameto our country, forced us to be slavesin our own home and seizedeverything
from w beforeour eyes.Plain and simple.
The aim of nationalismat that time was very ea.syto understand.We wanted
to be free. We wantedto kick the colonialistsout of our country. We were eagerto
haveour own government.The colonial governmentwas perceivedas no more than
a group of robbers. They were no more than criminals. We wanted toI get Our
motherland back. We wanted freedom, peace, and the rigbt to have our own
governmentin our own country.We didn't want to be oppressed.
But nationalism these days is far different. We are facing a different
situation. Times have changed. Problems afe more complicated now.
Communicationte.chnologyhas enabledus to do the impossible.Every day mass
communicationbrings the world to us, and often it effectsus unconsciously.This is
the era of satellitesdishesand private TV programswhich are filled with foreign
films. We can enjoy international shows on screen,and consequently,we face
foreign values and lifestyles.Everytime we go to the movies, we find only the
importedones.We lack an audiovisualmediawhich is culturallysuitablefor us.
Meanwhile,nationalismas we have been believedand applied in the past
Day on August l7th. On
seemsirrelevant.We still commemoratetndependence
national holidayslike HeroesDay, National AwarenessDay and others,we hold
formal ceremonies.We sometimesdo silly things to commemoratea national
Day,what kind of things
our Independence
holiday.For example,in commemorating
chips,puttingpencilsin
eating
do we do?We hold funnyand ridiculouscontestslike
bottles,sackraces.It is fun, of course.But doesthis makesense?Why don't we do
somethingmoremeaningfulin termsof nationalism?

That is clear: our perceptionof nationalism has to be renewed.We must
rethink it. Our way of commemoratingnationalhoti&ys hasto be thought.Of cotuse
we canstill havesilly contestsand games.
We can still play footbdl wearing a saroongand have fun together. But
shouldwe do this to commemorateIndependenceDay?Why don't we do it on other
daysinstead?
When we are bombarded by medi4 we must use the media itself to
find univenal values which are good and special. We must look for our own
values,the onesthat are alsouniversal.We cannotrefirseall foreign values.We must
selectthe onesrekivantto our future.
Our nationalismshouldhavevaluesgroundedon our own culturat roots.This
is the startingpoint. Valueslike social justice, democracy,humanrights, supporting
what's righg generosity,and so forth should be our main concerns.Love of nature,
recycling, tee-planting, conservationand so on, are also relevant. We must leave
behindour one-sidedurayof thinking. Our strugglenow is not to obtain freedom,but
to improveour lives. Peopleneedto decidetheir own destiny.

GROIIP LIVING

Canyou imagine living all alone,with no friends or relations,with nobodyto
talk to? If you are lucky, you will probablyonly feel very lonely; otherwiseyou may
go mad or at least becomeabnormal.Here is a tragic exampleof what happensif a
personis not grventhe chanceto live amongother peopleand be part of a group.
In 1938,in the United Statesof Americq social workersdiscovereda little
girl who had beenkept by herself for the first six yearsof her life, in a small room
just under the roof of the house.She had been placed there by her mother a few
monthsafter her birttr- Shehad beengrvenonly enoughattentionto keep her alive.
Her mother had never trained or shownher how to do anything.Mother's love and
friendly attention .were unknownto her. When shewas tescued,the little girl could
not do anything.Shecould not perform any act that requiredintelligence;shecould
not even walk, let alone talk. Two years were spent qnng to make her a more
normal child. But they failed. It was alreadytoo late. The girl could not recover.She
hadmissedtoo much.Shehadneverknownhow to live amongpeopleandplay with
otherchildren.Shehadneverhada chanceto becomepartof a goup. As a resultshe
died in 1942atthe ageof ten.
This accountclearly showsthat a normal perconcannotlive separatedfrom
his fellow men.He hasto be with otherpeopleand associatewith them.He hasto
be partof a group.In otherwordsmanis a gregariousbeing.
Therefore,it is naturalfor a personto belongto a groupor groups.Everyone
of you belongsto at least two kinds of groups:your family and your classesat
school.Of courseyou maybelongto othergroups,too. And the olderyou get,the

more groupsyou may want to belong to. If you like sports,you will join a group
whosemembersare interestedin the samekind of sportsasthekind you enjoy. After
you leaveschool,you will e:nn your living by working with other peopleoigroups
of people. As a member of your 'Neighbourhood Associationt or "Rukun
Tetangga", you will have to join other members of the 'RT' to take part in
community affairs. You can find more exarnples from your own experience.
Anpay, goup living will alwaysbe an important part of your life, of our lives, of
everybody'slife.
Although it is naturalfor peopleto join groups,it doesnot meanthat it also
natural for peopleto be able to get along well in groups.We must always keep in
mind that a groupis madeup of individuals who havetheir own ideasand habits.To
belongto anygoup, the individual must give up someof his own wishesand accept
some ideaswhich are completelydifferent from his own. Naturally the individual
shouldnot grve up too muchbecauseonce he doesthat, the group may prevail over
his freedom of expressionand his conscience.He should never let his own
personalityand characterbe greatlyaffectedby the other memben. If he succeedsin
doing so, he will be a richer p€rsonfor belongingto a groupor groups.
Every normal htrmanbeing wantsto belongto somegoup or other whatever
his reasonsmay be. It migbt be that he desires to escapeloneliness or to gain
standingor prestigein schooland comm*ity; or he simply wants to be recognized.
Somepeoplejoin groupsbecausethey desire tohelp a good cause.Therefore it is
important for one to know why he is in a goup and why othersare there with him.
Knowing these reasonswitl help him meet the other members of the goup
intelligently. He will be able to get along with them more easily becausehe
understands
them better

FRIENDSHIP
All over the world, acrossthe nations,people have one thing in common. All
ofus needfriends.

Friendshipis an imporant prt of our lives. Why do you think friends are
necessary?Well, we needfriends becausewe are social crcatures.We needfriends
to glve us emotionaljPport. lv{anytimes, we haveto dependon one anotherro get
certain thin$ done. The *NeighbourhoodWatch Group" is an example.The police
cultivate friendshipwith residentsso that crime can be iought ror 4irrtively.
There are many different kinds of friends. Some are merc acqqainances.
Jnae are peoplewlro know little aboutone another.If they meeqgreetingslike..Hi,
the weathcr's so hot today!- would be exchangea r.roning go", u.]ond that.
Neigbboun or the postmanor eventhe neighbourhoodpolicemanwho patrolseach
day are but someexamples.
Then there are casualfriends. They know more about one another.There is
somesharingof their daily activities. They may discusscertain situationsthat they
share.Thesepeoplemight be classmatesor colleagues.
Good friends relate closcr to one another.Usually we shareeventsthat make us
happy or sad with our good friends. We also go out with them more frequently.
close friends, on the other hand, are people ,rhom we tnrst very much. we often
tend to shareourjoys and sorrowswith them fint
Friendsof th9 sameagehelp you to grow and matureasa person.Many times
whenyou arepart of a goup of friends,you tend to follow whativer the groupdoes.
This helps you to learn about goup spirit, sharingand caring. Howevei there are
times whenyou know that what the friends in you goup do is wrong. If your friends
start smoking,and you know that it is wrong you shouldnot be afraid to iana up for
whatyou believeto be rigbt.
By doingso,you might runthe risk ofbeingbrandeda coward-ln reality,you
are the strongestpersonin that goup for you havenot bowedto peerpressure.
