What is the end of scraping?

The film Guasha tells the story of a China family who lived in the United States for eight years. They came to America because their child had an unexpected fever. Grandpa, who doesn't know English, used the traditional scraping therapy in China to treat his little grandson, but the nurse found the blood stains left by scraping in the hospital, which was suspected to be caused by family abuse. Therefore, the Children's Welfare Institute took the child's father Xu Datong to court. In court, Xu Datong was finally sentenced to be separated from her children and lost her job, friends and wife, because she could not understand that scraping was a traditional treatment method in China, and her lawyer made things difficult for her. Fortunately, Xu Datong's friend went to China and learned that scraping is a treatment. He testified for him and told the story. The Xu Datong family's experience in the United States largely reflects the inadaptability of China people living in a foreign country, which is largely caused by the differences between Chinese and Western cultures, followed by estrangement, opposition and conflict. The first is the difference in understanding in the medical field. Scraping is the fuse of story conflict. Scraping therapy is very common among the people in our country, and it is a treatment method of Chinese medicine, which can really cure some common diseases. However, when this therapy was moved to the United States, it became evidence of Datong's violence against children. The second is the difference of legal concepts. In western society, law exists in every corner, every kind of dispute is solved through legal channels, and every fact is well founded. For example, American courts and children's welfare homes are shocked by Datong's passionate, sincere and indifferent complaints, but they still demand "evidence of love" for the court to decide. China people pay more attention to human feelings, especially affection. Third, the understanding of respect is different. At the beginning of the story, Xu Datong hit his son with his hand because his son didn't apologize to the boss's son. The boss felt incredible after seeing it. Xu Datong explained the move to John and said, "Why did I hit my son? This is out of my respect for you, that's my face. " This explanation puzzles typical westerners. He didn't know that the oriental boy's slap in the face was out of such logic. As a westerner, John can't understand the complicated feelings of the oriental father when he hits his son. He only knows that beating people is illegal, which is a disrespect for human rights. These two completely different concepts illustrate a truth: the differences of ideas formed by different countries and different ethnic cultural backgrounds will inevitably lead to sharp conflicts in interweaving and collision. The fourth is the different understanding of love and family. This is also the essence of the conflict between melon and sand. Xu Datong is good at dealing with the life and work of American society, but this does not mean that the traditional cultural concept of China that accompanied him to grow up has disappeared. In Xu Datong's mind, family is also his spiritual pillar. Everything he did was for the happiness and reunion of this family. It runs in the family is the driving force and significance of his struggle. In order to let grandpa get the American green card, he also scratched the child himself; I'd rather be apart for my son to go home; In order to let grandpa have a look at his grandson, he secretly took his son out of the welfare home; In court, Xu Datong loved his son so much that he even got into a fight. In order to give Christmas gifts to children, you can "fall to the ninth floor" regardless of the danger ... Love means giving and taking responsibility, which may be serious, separation, even deception and hijacking ... It is this kind of love that unites children with their father and this family and transcends their dignity, equality, freedom and the right to choose their own happiness. In the eyes of westerners, these are incredible and even illegal! This film scraping made us realize that the cultural differences between China and the West are so great that it is really a headache if we don't understand the cultures of both sides. It seems that the world Datong culture has to go through a long collision, interweaving, sharp conflict and running-in, in order to integrate and develop.
