As we all know, China is now in fast development in all aspects. Therefore, more and more foreign customs merge into Chinese culture. Many young people are crazy for foreign cultures, maybe because people at this age always want to try new things. However, things come from other countries are not all good, and many Chinese youngsters are losing themselves in this social environment.
Do you think multi-culture is good for Chinese youngsters? If not, how to deal with this problem?
Welcome to join in the discussion!

I think multi-culture is good for Chinese youngsters because in this way they can get touch with more customs of different countries and learn more from them. Next time when they go to other countries or come across the foreigners, they will be able to handle all kinds of situations skillfully or adroitly. Surely i won't deny there will be no harm to youngsters as these cultures rush into our country. After all, all cultures has its bad aspects and the young people lack the ability to tell the right from the wrong. Therefore the responsibility lays on our society, the teachers and the parents, and they should provide us information and promptly point out the harmful side the youngsters. Also we should use media to do this job,and i think whose influence is much powerful

In my opinion, multi-culture is ok for youngsters and there should be a teacher to guide them how to learn culture. Culture inludes the customs,way of thinking of our own country as well as those of the other countries. The teacher has the responsibility to teach how they can adapt their culture, to teach them to accept the different culture.

But a still has a question:
Could you explain more clearly zhout what is "multi-culture."
