In order to investigate the relationship between a mother's concern for dietary lifeand her satisfaction with her own life and her family, questionaire studies were performedfor mothers of junior high school students in Japan and Korea. The statistical analyseswere performed by using SPSS. In the view of the children, significant (p<0.01) differences were observed among both countries; Japanese mothers thought their childrento be another personality, and expected their children to be good companions, criticsand the persons to heal their mind. These results suggested the exchange of the role ofthe mother and child and the lack of the role of the husband in Japan. In addition, Japanese mothers had less self-confidence as mothers than Korean mothers. The percentageof Japanese mothers thought to be respected by their children was half of that of Korean mothers. Both in Japan and Korea, mothers who had interest in arranging the dishesand a concern for dietary life recognized their position in the home, and enjoyed goodcommunications with their children. The good relationship among family members increasedthe satisfaction of the mother's own life. It was suggested that to cultivate amutual understanding between mother and child through the home circle at mealtimewas very important not only for the child but for the mother herself. Meal time wasshown to be the best chance to cultivate mutual understandings in daily life.
