Would it be better for the baby to take his father's last name or his mother's last name?

Whether the child has his father’s surname or his mother’s surname, the fact that he is the biological child of his father and mother will not change. This is just a surname, and it is not that important. What is important is the relationship between family members. If the relationship is good, it will be easier to share your surname with anyone. Since the husband is willing to let his children take his wife's last name, this is good. It shows that the husband has a deep affection for his wife, and it also shows that the husband is a very open-minded man who does not care about these small things. This should be a good thing for the wife. The wife should feel lucky.

Because China’s traditional culture has always been that the child will bear the father’s surname. It feels that the child’s father’s surname is the man’s side, and the mother’s surname is the woman’s side. Therefore, most people do not want the child to have the same surname as the father’s surname. Mother's surname. In fact, this is a misconception based on old ideas. It is not as important as everyone thinks. It is because everyone regards this old culture too important.

Generally speaking, after a woman gets married, she lives with the man’s family. Therefore, after giving birth to a child, she will get along more with the man’s relatives and get closer. Even if the child has the mother’s surname, such The situation will not change much. For those children who have lived with the woman's family for a long time, even if they bear the father's surname, they will still be closer to the woman's relatives. This is a normal thing. As parents, you don’t need to worry about it. There is no need to worry about whose surname your child will have.

My opinion is that since it doesn’t matter whose surname the child has, and Chinese tradition has always been that the child takes the father’s surname, then just follow the tradition. This way it will be logical and there will be no such thing. Stop gossiping and save yourself a lot of trouble. Among the relatives and friends around us, it is true that very few children have their mother’s surname, and most of them still have their father’s surname. This is also a matter of habit, because everyone has been doing this for a long time, and they have long been used to it, and they don’t want to change. In fact, this is very good. Everyone follows this habit. It is better to do less than to do more to make life simpler.
