Day in the Life of a Japanese Housewife in Tokyo
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ก.ย. 2024
- This is a day in the Life of Japanese Housewife raising a Japanese Kid in Tokyo with Husband. This Japanese family shares their life in Japan and life in Tokyo for an entire day. We follow a Japanese mom and her soon to be 3 year old Japanese daughter inside their Tokyo home to see what they do in the morning all the way until the evening when they go to sleep. Tomomi, 38 years old and child, Karin almost 3 years old spend most of their day in their Tokyo apartment, but they also find some time to leave the house and go to the park. This Japanese family does many typical Japanese family things like make miso soup in the morning and make offering to their home shrine, but they also have their unique aspects of their life. They were kind enough to let us into their Japanese home to see what it is really like being raised in a Japanese home. This day in the life of mom and housewife, should give another perspective on how life in Japan would be if you lived here. I hope you enjoy this video.

OH! and one more thing you should do a day in a life video of an english teacher i am working to become an english teacher one day in japan and i was wondering what life is like for an english teacher in japan. that would be great :)
Homemaker Paolo...😄❤️
What about the husband? After six he never came Back
Do husband and wives say I Love you?
Could you make ‘day in life with a Covid-19 patient’ video
Can we just take a minute to appreciate that the narrator does not judge the family at all?
He comments everything in a neutral way. Many journalists and moderators/presenters could learn from him. Great video!
Shut up
Totally agree
If most of journalists aren't being neutral or being objective, they could get filed a lawsuit
Try understand the journalistic principles before you presume
@@felixarsene9510 principles are ideas... they represent how things SHOULD run but of course that is often not the case
@@felixarsene9510 I did not say 'most' I said 'many', which might have offered too much interpretation possibilities. A lot of texts, videos and audio I found in the last few years that should be neutral were not. Not in an obvious way like "I think ..." or "you should do .." or "this is better than...". Often they did it in subtle ways, if you don't especially look on it you easily will take the opinion of the author without wanting it. A way many authors did this (maybe subconscious) was with some adjectives that are judging, but not too obvious or if it was audio their tone was already pursuading.
I am not saying all of them were trying to manipulate, I guess they rather did it subconsciously. I also realized it with a lot of the papers I had to write. Many of them had the same "problem" and I did not even realize it until someone told me.
I admire how she is raising her daughter. You can tell she already respects Karin as an individual with their own needs and interests. She asks her if she likes the outfit instead of just forcing her to wear something, she feeds Karin's curiosity and desire to do things for herself like put on her own shoes, and even when she is working she will stop to pay attention to Karin if Karin wants to interact. She really prioritizes her.
@@Brian-jv8iy Don't be annoying karen. stfu
@@Brian-jv8iy yes and her being so called " addicted" to TH-cam has taught her a few English words and in this day and age kids will be obsessed with technology because there's more technology in this generation which is actually a positive thing they learn to type, socialize and learn more about the world .
@@Brian-jv8iy to add on to @sailor zuna I would like to say that I learned majority of my English skills from watching the tv and TH-cam videos so her so called “addiction” is actually beneficial.
She is soo cool
Just like my MOM
I used to think that my mother did not back me up enough, because she always let me make my own decisions
And that might appear as negligence as well
But she has proofed time and again that she loves me
Shame about that TH-cam addiction though
I admire this mom. Not comparing her child with other children.
The can still be similar just saying here tho. 😑.
Right.
My dad:
Why aren’t you like your friends?
They’re not like you.
Try harder.
Not typical Asian mom
keiming227 init 😂 my mums asian she wanted me to be a doctor or a lawyer and when I said I wanted to be an illustrator she didn’t talk to me for a few days
I love how Karin said "My teeth hurt" and Tomomi immediately stopped eating just to check if theres a problem, love moms like her
Thats normal🙄
@@ShiaTssu- You must be fun at parties.
@@Goleon You got a problem? Does it bother you that the words are true?
@@ShiaTssu - No. Just pointing out how much of a Karen you are.
@@Goleon That's a lame line, it doesn't apply in oure country. 🙄
Is it just me or is this mother’s parenting skills on point
I was looking for this comment. Even the part where it was mentioned that she was grateful that her husband is taking the time to take care of their child. They're a pretty special family if you ask me.
Yeah... Giving my 2 year old their own phone to watch TH-cam all the time. Super. Bedtime after 10pm???
@@okinoboo4743 Please not all the time. An hour or two is good enough. Too much screentime is not good for kids. Let her be bored so she'd get creative.
@@okinoboo4743 The mother did say that that her daughter watches a lot of TH-cam. But from the video, it seems like she doesn't actually.
Honestly this seems like every single family I know in Japan
6:06 the way she hugged her chubby cat is litteraly the cutest thing ever.
@@chipcochra9442 shut its too cute
@@therealrafa_ yeah
@@chipcochra9442 arent we all
@@tr0llol677 🤣🤣
It almost looked like she was about to suplex the cat! But it was so cute.
She is so inspiring and defenitely bringing her child up in a very *healthy, relaxed* manner!
agreed. i hope i can be a mom like that one day
Agreed
You should definitely not sit your kids in front of a phone screen/tv screen. It messes up the child's brain. Wish more people would take such things more serious and it would be more important than having their peace for a while. Otherwise a very cute family :)
@@UA-os2yp one, that is part of their culture, as explained in the video it is very common in japan. secondly you are sitting in front of a screen typing this buckaroo, so I dont wanna hear it. pog, let the kid watch her fucking teletubbies.
@@SteelProsGaming lol its not a part of their culture exclusively like 2/3 of 4 year olds at least here in america are also fuckin addicted to watching youtube on their moms phones
this was so wholesome and cute to watch im glad this child is being raised well
Same
Karin is so cute in the mini photoshoot and when they went out
You mean the thumbnail?
@@pcpc8755 its later on in the video i think the dad goes to work and her mom is taking photos of her. Its so cute x
Yes tomomi is
Call of Jury Duty: Modern Inconvenience Tomomi is what?
Her mother is cuter oh man I want to hold her tight
I love that Karin’s mom is letting her develop at her own pace. And that she isn’t super strict with the no TV rule and Karin still plays outside a lot
@Zahin Shahazad no
Jessica Mayne no phone rule should be a must
@@bavidlynx3409 and why exactly is that a must?
No typical Asian mom
"Mom is letting her develop at her own pace..."
And apparently this 3 yr old must be developing _super_ fast if her mom is already comfortable enough letting her have an iPhone when some 12 & 13 yr olds still can't get one of their own.. Lol
Paolo is really gearing up for his kid
LOL

That’ll be the series finale...
@@DevonPalmer98 Did he ever make a video about that? "A Daily Life With A Japanese Gangster/Yakuza" that'll be really interesting
Mikha'il Paragon
That would be so cool!
We must spam that in the comment section.
Why do they let their doughter to watch tv so much?
It was so adorable when Karin asked her mom to take pictures of her! But honestly I can tell that she is such an amazing mother and Karin will grow up to be a good and successful person!
8:55
Karin: *dead asleep*

if you look closely she was already up just tired as hell i think xD

Why is no one talking about how intelligent and cute the baby is OMMMLLLLLLLLLLLL CUTEENESSS OVERLOAD-
Everyone's focused on the hot mom instead...
• T o k y o • the baby is THE CUTEST. Her little curly pony tail 😭
@@Melissa-fp1kh And that makes you...cry?! You are a odd person...
Rita Gomes what cute things doesn’t make you want to shed tears of happiness... instead oddly pay more attention to the mom. You’re obviously the “odd” one
@@GoddessMe444 Iwuss...i dont tend to cry when happy...or much at all really. (>.>)
As one can clearly see by the tendency of the comment above and below this ones, im seriously the oddball here, sure... =D
I'm beyond impressed of how disciplined Japanese people are they do everything with so much precision & so much passion the way mothers just have a natural & nurturing patience with their children I just admire Japanese culture so much! even though I have never travel anywhere in my life I'm just an ordinary Puerto Rican mother that has never seen or even been inside of a plane in my life!😩 but I just find this types of videos so fascinating! 🇯🇵❤🇵🇷
I pray that you get to travel other places in life , sending good vibes x
Hope you get to travel wherever you want to go
"I don't force her to do things just because other kids are doing it"
"If you compare what you can and can't do, it's just too stressful"
Man, if my parents think like that my childhood wouldn't have been so depressing. Kudos to this next-generation mom.
Damn I know I feel the same way
Same here buddy,same here
Sleeping Forest her daughter is lucky. the mom has a good head on her shoulders and doesnt blindly follow depression-causing asian ideals 😭😭😭
Same
The 2end one yeah thats what i need to hear but never have
"Endgame is the most ambitious crossover."
The Japanese mom crosses paths with Butcher from one of Paolo's other video.
bro i say "i know this dude"
The butcher has been involved in his family business since 18 and younger he stated!
WHERE Timestamp
ok I know now
8:30
This is literally such an attractive family!?! The mum is gorgeous, the child is adorable, and the husband looks like the kindest person.
Lmoaaaaaa
That sounds like a friendly way to say that the husband would look kinda ugly lmao
@@Sabnoc1234 stfu he looks beautiful
@@justsomeguywithoutamustach4764 Can you read dumbass? "WOULD look kinda ugly" means I'm paraphrasing the original comment not stating my own opinion.
@@Sabnoc1234 oh my bad sorry about that mate 😅
She’s such a good mother she doesn’t compare her daughter to other kids every child learns at there own speed and you have to be patient about it 😊
So, apparently the one thing a Japanese Houswife doesn't do is age.
they will eventually when menopause hit them, my mom is 40 but most stranger we met always though she's in her late 20
Stay at home mother’s is the hardest job in the world. Tell that to a coal miner or roofer who lives in Arizona.
Natto has a form of vitamin K2 in it that is helpful to anti-aging. They were eating that for breakfast.
Asian people don't age
It's called being asian hahaha
Not only Tomomi is a great mother, she also seems like a cool, chill person.
Also, 38? She looks 26 at most
@Al Patron why tho
l agree with you completely
She is extremely beautiful 🤩
its the rice. My wife is 37. If you see her. She looks like a freshman in College
.Look at the stuff they eat. Lots of fresh wild fish, lots of grass fed meat, lots of green, lots of fermented food. A diet high in Iron, Vitamin D, Collagen and Vitamin A will keep you young.
@@PeaceDweller These days a lot of Japanese eat the same shit we eat.
"you cant underestimate TH-cam, it taught my baby BabyShark in english."
i died.
LOL I can imagine it now... she sounds like a native english speaker ONLY when she sings the song, and like a non-native speaker for everything else.
Im ur 700th like! I had to even out that 699, it seriously got to me
Zryn did u see that babyshark has over 5 billion views ? Tf?
ddu dduru 6 billion now
i learned english thanks to youtube
She seems like a really nice mum that plans goo things for her daughter by letting her be a “free child” which I really like
I want to be a mother like Tomomi. I really aspire to be a mother who understand her kid's perspective and don't force kid to do things beyond the kid's own interest
You learn quick once kids arrive to let them learn and grow and their own pace.
Make me dinner woman
@@Sam-pn2kc ...
yeah the right guidance, help and control to let her grow the right way without pressuring her too much and to allow her some freedom. A kid needs a parent with a good common sense and a healthy mindset. Giving negative patterns to your child (unintentional) is not a good thing.
@@Sam-pn2kc ?
"I think comparing Karin to other kids is stressful for her, so I'm trying to make her feel loved and not pressured, basically."
Ah, auntie, please say that to my parents.
ya tell them auntie
*Hugs*
I like when she said that. its unhealthy to compare urself to people no one is perfect and you are beautiful and unique in ur own way ❤️
Yeah
say that to the world
I just realised the butcher is from the day in the life of a butcher
Same. This is the 3rd time me watching this, and I also noticed that it was the same butcher
teru
Me i only realised it because of your comment then rewatch it hahaha
lol i was literally looking for this comment cos i was 99% sure it was him but didnt want to go look for the video
I was just about to put a comment about that
"A day in the life of ....", is the best shows ever happen on TH-cam.
They always cheer me up, they are therapeutic, it is so wonderful and inspiring to follow the daily life of highly talented workers. Makes me want to do my best in my own job. 🤗 🤗 🤗
Oh, my gosh. Karin is just the CUTEST. She's such a little firecracker!
omg karin from naruto lmao wow didn't think that was a normal Japanese name
She is probably one of the most knowledgeable, patient, and best Moms I have ever seen.
Leia Organa Mom nice no jutsu
It's called being a good mom? Not some that don't care about their kids and let them be spoiled
She’s a better mom than me, I don’t get to see my kids right now because im staying in a hotel, I work at a hospital and I don’t want to get my family sick.
Leia Organa how is that bad to protect your kids
@@yourfriend8052 its like women in porn,just shove a camera in her face. Magic
The mama is gorgeous ! She can't be 38, she looks 10 years younger.
And little Karin seems to have inherited mama's beauty, she's so precious !
That's Japan for you
She is taking Amway supplements
they literally said she’s 38
She’s such a good mom 🥺
That Mom is so smart because she is raising the kid to be independent, she’s so young but learning to dress herself, cook, and pick up her toys. She has structure and seems happy with her life
its true! there's no reason kids shouldn't learn this stuff! especially getting dressed is a great coordination task for kids to learn
My mom literally did the same thing. Most parents don't disiplin their kids at all
Almost every moms are like this so it's common and you don't have to point it out

Japanese children (and Asian children in general) are especially adorable.
This video was really interesting! I hope Karin, Tomomi, and her husband live an amazing life! And the cute cat too :3
"Karin's at the age where she wants to do everything on her own."
A 3-year-old is older than I am, apparently.
Japanese children are taught independence at a very young age. By the time she turns 8 she'll be going to school on her own. A byproduct of living in a safe country.

Man I wish the US was like this but when being a child/teen you can’t go out without being worried about being raped, murdered, kidnapped, etc. especially since I look younger than I actually am.
@@thomaschristopherwhite9043 Yup - gotta get ready for those 80 hour work weeks and sleeping in a capsule. It's easy to romanticize but the citizens need to rebel and demand better wages and shorter hours. I understand the honor and loyalty and not rocking the boat over there - it's only benefiting the companies as the people suffer. Suffer suicide, hikikomori, and high divorce/low birth rates.

partially true, they also are more conscience about staying out of the sun, the sun ages in particular white people fast. as well as, make-up. be real, she was wearing a lot of it, even when she "just woke up"
Paolo, this was an awesome video!! I love how Tomomi takes care of her daughter. She treats Karin with respect and love. I think it is important to allow her daughter to help her in the kitchen because it teaches her life skills. Over all, I respect the Japanese culture for taking care of their children in those most formative years of their life.
A little cheer-up for you Paolo
This 'A Day in a life' series is probably the best series on TH-cam
100% agreed!
"You can't underestimate TH-cam."
I can't argue with her assessment.
Very true. You can find just about anything on TH-cam.
Fun fact: "Once Upon a December" in Russian is amazing, much better than English. And likely can find it in Japanese.
Is true because every time my little niece and nephew watch TH-cam kids they always get smarter. I'm not even kidding my 3 year old nephew knows numbers 1 to 100 to thousands and knows a little math! I asked him what's 3+4? my nephew's saids 7 and I was like What the hack! 😱🤣 we should never underestimate TH-cam 😅
I leaned English from TH-cam my self so I agree

Its funny how the adults are good at just ignoring the camera, but then we can see that Karin is always looking 😂
I love how her day is so manageable! And she always focus her time on their kid. This feels so nice and so comforting. The kid will growp up into a happy adult for sure. Great job parents!
This video is making me really sentimental. I once took part in an exchange student program to Japan. There was a foster family who took care of me while I was staying in Japan. My Japanese mom was really hardworking. She was not a full time house wife and yet she did all the things that the mom in this video would do as well. Japanese mothers are really hands on and hardworking. I would always be grateful for her kindness and their family's openness to me.
Why no body talks about the father? Can't we appreciate his effort for their life?He is always at work but helps his wife doing house chores and he is also a good dad
Thank you man🌷
Yes he seems like a thoughtful father.
Because this video isn't about him. It's about the house wife.
@@AlexFarleyMusic I think they mean specifically within the comments.
@@ang5942 that makes more sense. Most likely cuz the mom is hot and everyone is obsessed with image?

Karin having a better childhood than a majority of us for 14 minutes.
The tragedy of having both parents going to work, leaving the kids in horrible daycare facilities being slapped around and having them fend for themselves. Then once the parents come exhausted from work, leaving no energy fro the kids so they order a pizza and everyone goes to watch TV alone in their rooms. What have we done?
@@REGENERONDEALER The reality of it is, a single breadwinner isn’t viable for the average family. Parents often have no choice but to leave their child in daycare facilities (which by the way, are not always terrible and abusive). It’s possible to have a good work life balance, lots of working families make time for their children, take care of the house, etc. All that matters is that the child is loved and happy, regardless of familial structure. :))
Seriously 😂
My childhood was filled with abuse :/
@@ookreek5374 hello there I would like to add on to your point, you see, you are right for the most part but I live in dubai as a 13 year old (I am indian so it's quite common to only have one breadwinner) and we are considered middle class yet we have still lived in a moderately sized apartment for about 7 years, and even with just one breadwinner, my parents have supplied me with lots of love and enough money for all my needs and wants. Sorry for the bad english😅

How is it tough when you work from home and have all that free time..
@@LoLdude4lyf There isn't much freetime? You spend most of your time doing chores/making sure the baby is okay. Sure its not the hardest job in the world, but its not cake. If it is easy, then you are doing something wrong. You are essentially also a teacher to the kids.
@@Kronos0999 it is tough and rewarding
Tomomi and Karin are amazing. Tomomi is wonderful mom with lot of love and understanding for her child's need. Love the bike they are riding! 3 h in a childrends playground....that"s exactly what every child need in childhood.

"In tokyo they don't regularly talk to strangers"
Me: i found my place to live.
Same! Either that or Seoul
What a nice place to live
Ah yes such a nice place for my antisocial ass
I've basically grown up in Tokyo and you have to be prepared to feel majorly lonely at times. In most city centers, even if you're only trying to strike up polite conversation, people will react like "oh shit a weirdo's addressing me should I respond, ignore, or report. STRANGER DANGER *STRANGER DANGER"* It's just that unusual. You'll have more luck downtown where there are more small businesses and there's an Edo-like friendly culture, but go somewhere like Shinjuku and it's the busiest loneliest place on Earth.

her neck gives away her age. 100% of the time even if your face looks young your neck gives it away.

What a nice family! Karin is so cute! I'm a housewife in California with an 11 year old and a 4 year old, so I'm home with my 4 year old during the day. I don't even do as much as Tomomi and feel exhausted. It's not easy work, but I'm so thankful I get to be with my kids rather than have them someone else watch them. Tomomi is a good mom and Karin looks like a smart and happy kid. She's also a good eater, unlike my 4 year old!

That's what I thought 🤔
Japanese people don’t age until they hit about 60 then they get hit by a fucking age truck lol
i thought she was 25 like dang
Yuh lol
@@MattW05 Russians*
She looks like a mom in her twenties, it doesn't show that she is almost 40.
Make up tends to do that
@RZ asmr I get their point was that asians look younger, but the point still stands. It might not show that a lot of these people look older because of makeup.
@@MicroHippo123 actually, make up makes you look a lot older not younger
@@allyalbu3800 When you take it off it makes you look older sure, but while you are wearing a inch thick mask, all those wrinkles and imperfections are hidden, making you look younger
I look similar and im 40 in a few months. I have a vegan diet and do not go in direct sun
Karin is such an adorable kid and she has lovely parents, especially a great mom💖 I wish them the best!
6:06 when Karin grabs the cat, how cute 🥺
I'm surprised the cat didn't try to scratch her most cats can be a little on the pissy side
both are similar in size 😆😆😆
I found that so adorable. Wish my cat did that but instead scratches me lol
@@cathya7045 I think the cat knows it's a child and will let you do things that adults aren't allowed to do.
cat was like: ah shit here we go again
Being a housewife is such an underrated job..
@@mansamusa8191 depends on how you look at it, in my context, the pay is good successful offspring that will contribute to society, because mothers are very important for a family's well-being, they take control, manage and care about every day activities at home, serving as household managers for the family, thus why it's a very underrated job/occupation especially mothers who juggles between jobs and caring for their children..
@@afternoonvibes6359 i could not have said this better myself its as if the thoughts i couldnt put into words u read them lol
@@mansamusa8191 ah western concept of house wife is all about pay 🤦

Seeing Karin still hold on to the lolly when she's still sleepy is precious
Karin is literally the cutest and Tomomi is such a good mom
I swear there are only like 4 ages for japanese people: baby, highschooler, 20's, then suddenly you're 80 have grey hair and wrinkles.
Agree 🤣🤣
Man that kid.

Hell yeah 😹
8:47 Karin passed out and yet still holding on to the candy.
I refuse to believe she is 38 years old bro. Japanese people can become immortal with how young they tend to look!
i mean... asians are basically immortal hot gods.. until they hit 60 and then its instant 100 years old
@@doubled99218 nah not to South korean ..they just do plastic surgery
I think western ppl just look a lot older by comparison. Im asian and seeing 18 year olds on the internet look 30 is crazy to me lol
They're secretly Hamon users.
@@XioneLokyz lol what
Paolo: it's common for children before elementary school to sleep with their parents in the same bed.
Me: studies in high school and sleeps with mom
Its inspiring that she is 38 years old and got her Baby at 35. I turned 30 this year and feel so old already 🙈😅
hahaha
I thought i was the one one that did the calculation lool I am so hopeful now
Don't worry about it too much, my mother had me at 39 and I actually think it made her a better mother because she had more life experiences and was a lot more relaxed than the mothers of my friends that were much younger
31 and nothing close to family here, I feel you. Older people still call me young but 20 year olds think I’m ancient. It’s a weird age lol
Search for worldofmeters on Google. It shows many numeric informations about countries including average age of women having kids. Pretty sure japan's average age for woman having kids is the highest of the world, about 35 years old
Karin as a 3-year-old: Knows technology, can feed herself, understands cultural courtesy and is learning English.
Me as a 3-year-old: "Mom, is my booger safe to eat?"
The booger thing is so funny Hahaha
WHen i was 3, i was eating other kids boogers
At least you asked
LoL
Lol I remember when I was 2 years old, I licked my dog as it lick me 😂
She is such a good mother, it’s stressful raising a toddler and she handles it so well! She also looks so young as well!!
@@ndm8039 cry ab it
And her daughter is a good kid too
Karins the cutest kid I've ever seen and the cats so cute!
3:30 dude no joke now i am interested about day in the life of a japanese cat in tokyo
wait, i don't realize that a cat in there lol.
Why does that cat also look really bored?
siloPIRATE idk why cats have that sad/disappointed look all the time lmao
G Gg it also looks like an album cover if you screenshot the corner the cat’s in
Her no hesitation "It's TH-cam" answer to the "hey, your child knows English" is the most relatable thing ever. Kids pick up a different language so dang quickly
You really can't underestimate TH-cam
The butcher shop! The cast of characters in these videos popping up again is the best meta. It's like a IRL slice-of-life manga.
I hoped I wasn't the only one who noticed, cheers.
Yup, i just wanted to comment that.
It's all connected #paoloverse
Oh yea.
lol i thought i was the only one who noticed
I didn't even know training chopsticks exist! The more you know...
And Karin is so stinking cute! 🥺 Tonomi is a good mom!
7:28 So in Tokyo you can just leave your bike like that??? At my park your bike would get stolen while your still riding it.
Japan has low crime rates.
LOL
Where u live LOL
LMAO!
No but really, I was in japan for almost a month last year. Almost no crime.
I believe you also have to get them registered kinda like a car so it’s traced back to you. I assume if it gets stolen (unlikely) that it’s pretty easily findable.
She's only 3 and she's more mature than all the Paul brothers combined.
Agreed, not that it's hard to pass a bar set SO low haha
😂
Theresmorethen 2?
God: "Yes, that is the truth"
everybody agreed
So nobody's gonna talk about the FAT CAT???? ITS ADORABLE
that cat make my day.
It’s adorable but it’s unhealthy. It will live a happy life getting as many treats as it wants but it still is unhealthy and will have many health problems in the future.
Too true!!! Love it!
It's not fat... it's *CHONKY*
Hahaha😂
The mother is so sweet and has a warm glow. She seems so relaxed in her routine . I am a first time mom and and trying to have a more active and positive life as a woman that is raising a child. Bless them
Y'all are talking about how cute the kid is....but did anyone else notice that ABSOLUTE UNIT of a cat?
I've been waiting for this comment
@@tracy.4712
Google global truth project and read "the Present" to see the truth about life/death. Nothing is more important than checking it is true, especially pgs 1-4
LMAO
I’ve been waiting for this comment.
@@tracy.4712 who asked
When the mother said:”Don’t underestimate TH-cam.” She was telling the truth, as the reason why I know English was because of TH-cam its weird that TH-cam taught me more then school... btw I learned English at 4 and was able to speak and translate at 6.
yeah my country is seriously outdated, it keeps thinking only the mainstream education system works and looks down on the internet, when our education system joined PISA we were dead last, when our Department of Education surveyed the teenagers they said it's because they were too focused on games and weren't studying enough...I don't think so
thats so true! learned english by watching smosh lolol
When I was 4 TH-cam didn't even exist lol (or good internet connection for that matter). But yeah, I also learned more English on the internet than at school. It's not like my teachers were bad, they're pretty cool, but having interest in this language and being a freaking weeb helped out a lot.
So, hurray for the internet!
How old are you now?
I mostly learn english at tv when i was young. youtube didn't exist back then
Japan: surprisingly declining rates of birth every year
Also Japan: not enough nurseries for the demand
Dude, what?!
Reikotsu It is very expensive to give birth in Japan. That’s why most families only have one child.
@@Casandra-jz5iq so thats the problem of population japan should do something instead of looking for foreigners not trying to be mean but japan needs to be on its own culture
@aguadelparaiso Child birth is NOT covered under the national health insurance (bizarre for a country that desperately wants more children, I know) But each prefecture/ward will provide a sum of money to help partially cover some of the cost (some, not all, you're still gonna have to fork over some yen$) . Pain management such as epidurals, laughing gas or medication is also an added 'luxury' that will have to be paid out of pocket and it is not offered at every clinic/ hospital and even then it's normally offered at 'office hours' (9am-5pm Monday to friday) so better hope your labour doesn't start on a Saturday night -.-'''' The price of childbirth in Japan fluctuates on where you are and what hospital you are registered to give birth with but it's rarely 'Cheap', it's at the very least gonna cost you a months rent.
@@LiuBei661 The implication somebody immigrating to Japan can't adopt and adapt to Japanese culture is pretty racist or the idea that they'll somehow delude or take away from Japanese culture is equally racist. The majority of migrants of Japan tend to people from China, the Philippines, and Korea or Japanese living in diaspora in countries such as Peru or Brazil.
@@GuyShōtō goverment should just make education free healthcare free and raise taxes that's it problem solved, put homeless people in villages
Very similar to my routine with my little ones when I was full time housewife, when my youngest was about 3 and a half I started working again!!! I miss that time so much, it was very precious!!! ☺️
I love how Karin got really tired after the park and shopping, but she would not let go of the lollipop. So cute! 💕
My mother used to be a housewife I’ve always admired how hard she worked to to keep the house clean, cooking and other things. Watching this brought back a lot of memories

That being a homemaker is looked down on shows how warped the US society’s priorities are, imo.
@@deadby15 very true
@@deadby15 this is why Western men are going overseas more to find partners... No one likes western feminists but themselves.
I like how the daughter seems smarter than me...and I'm 13.

Japan is such a civilized country one of the most well Disclipined countries😄
One of the dark sides to it is that Japan also has one of the highest suicide rates in the world. People in their 20s are incredibly depressed because they can't handle the social pressure of succeeding. Its honestly really sad.
@@adamruiz6460 oho so sad😭

Thats cool! What classes do you teach?

@Karl with a K ok first of all, japan was completely cut off from the rest of the world for 200 years. it didnt have all the exposure to outside countries who had different ideas like america did. you say its 22 years behind yet it is much safer, much more organized, much cleaner and has brought so much to the world. also americas population is roughly 26 times the size of japans, so like if you wanna talk development then try to use your brain- everything happens 26 times faster in america.
Damn Karin stole the whole show with her cuteness!
Anyone here after the “Day in the Life of a Butcher?”
peter tran YEP. I recognized the butcher from this video, when they went to his shop after the park.
