It is easy for people to react naively to products of different cultural and historical settings because they expect other people's psychological states to mirror their own. However, those brought up in modern circumstances, within the control of the nuclear family, have a different psychological structure and different expectations than those brought up in another historical context entirely. The levels of emotional expressiveness, individualism and reactiveness to parental devices will be very different in a more traditional context (i.e one where the nuclear family has not become the fundamental unit of power). Therefore a lot of interpretations of others, cross-culturally, can be misreadings.
