R....E...S...P...E...C...T....That is the way for me????
Confucius’ idea to respect older generations compare to the West African’s culture too. One of Confucianism’s main rules include filial piety or respect directed toward older generations. In West Africa, the eldest members were the main figures in the kinship groups and made the big decisions. This not only shows they were trusted but the rest of the kinship group RESPECTED the older generations. Respect is one similarity between Confucianism and West African's culture way in treating older generations.

wow thats really true of how they have to treat their older generation with more respects. I didn't know that the elder people in Kinship groups were the main figure.
both families really respect each other
Nice job with your post. You helped clarify my understanding of both of these cultures.
Great job on the comparison between the two groups. There were some things that I didn't know about he older generations
Yes, each culture R-E-S-P-E-C-T-E-D their elders. As many other cultures do. Elder generations were a big part in both cultures. Nice post, and i like your pics. :)
