Shaping

In Vietnam, there is a lot of focus put on family, and most stories, even if seen as unrelated, have family values involved, which is not only reflected in the stories but also helps uphold this value to this day. There are many values you can see throughout Vietnamese folklore, which you may want to see as the stories result from the values, but it is implant to see how these stories can also help sustain these values in coming generations. Think of the stories that are being told to children and how these could influence the values of that child as they grow.
