本文从意大利罗马和加利福尼亚州洛杉矶的中产阶级父母的角度，重点研究了儿童参与课外活动的情况。对访谈和人种学田野调查中获得的父母描述的分析表明，这两组父母都认为活动对孩子的成功很重要。然而，罗马父母认为活动是“儿童世界”的一部分，淡化了强烈的参与度和表现。相反，洛杉矶的父母认为活动是为孩子们的成年生活做准备，强调竞争和成就。 [童年，课外活动，家庭，美国，意大利]
This article focuses on children's engagement in extracurricular activities from the perspective of middle-class parents in Rome, Italy, and Los Angeles, California. Analysis of parents' accounts captured in interviews and ethnographic fieldwork reveals that both sets of parents perceive activities as important for children's success. Yet Roman parents consider activities as part of “children's world,” downplaying intense involvement and performance. Conversely, L.A. parents view activities as preparing children for adult life, emphasizing competition and accomplishment. [childhood, extracurricular activities, family, United States, Italy]
