In the West, children are mostly given to their mothers in divorces, as is the case in Hong Kong, which was once a British colony. In Taiwan, however, the children of divorcing parents have been traditionally given to their fathers, giving daughters a good reason to identify with them.
在歐美，單親家庭的孩子多歸屬於母親，曾是英國殖民地的香港亦然，而過去台灣的離婚官司大多將孩子判給爸爸，容易造成女兒以父親為認同對象。
