When Ming Di was elected as Lian Xiao, Johnny was elected as the founder of Xianneng and served as the commander of the five senses.

Parents should set an example of respecting their elders.

Children's attitude towards their parents is directly influenced by their parents' attitude towards their elders. Some parents not only don't take care of their parents, but have a particularly bad relationship with the elderly and have a particularly bad influence on their children.

Parents can't just focus on their small families and forget the old people at home. If you can't take care of the elderly because of work, you should always care about the elderly, take your children to visit them, do housework and chat for them. Over time, children will gradually develop a good habit of respecting the elderly.

Children are not necessarily used for education, but often for self-improvement. Children's problems often reflect parents' problems.

To cultivate filial piety, saying it a hundred times may not be effective. It is important to set an example. Children are good at observing and imitating. If you do it once, maybe he will remember it deeply, and it will be easy to form this behavior pattern in the future.

There is also a good family atmosphere. If parents can do well and honor their parents, in this environment, children will naturally not be bad.

Anyone who has done something wrong is asking for it.

In the circle of friends, filial piety is in the same strain. At first glance, it seems to be a great irony that Jarvis established a festival with religious intentions and the pursuit of human peace, but the commemorative method she opposed occupied the nest.

But there are two questions worth thinking about.

First of all, in a consumerist society, the commercialization of festivals that can be widely accepted by the public seems inevitable; The superficial way of commemoration seems to be the proper meaning of the concept of "festival" (true filial piety must be reflected in daily life; Since one day is singled out as a "festival", what is done on this day must be that the form is greater than the substance and the symbol is greater than the content). As a result, like anna jarvis, she insisted on the original intention of Mother's Day, so that she was on the verge of bankruptcy to fight against its commercialization trend. Or like now, some people ridicule the practice of showing filial piety in the circle of friends on Mother's Day. On the other hand, it seems that it is either baked in winter or engraved.

On the other hand, the concept of "Mother's Day" contains another layer of greater irony. The maintenance of the power structure and discourse system in a patriarchal society itself depends on the rigid division of the traditional dual gender roles of men and women; Although the birth of "Mother's Day" may have some progressive significance at that time (in fact, anna jarvis herself was a strong woman with a capable style and one of the earliest female middle managers in the insurance industry in Philadelphia at that time), her praise of motherhood just fell into the discourse of dual gender roles in a patriarchal society, so it was quickly used by various conservative forces. For example, I wrote in "Five Myths about the Origin of International Women's Day on March 8th" (/S/Blog68cd22cb0102x05n.html) that after the Nazis came to power, "Mother's Day" was designated as an official holiday, on the one hand, to fight against the left-wing "Women's Day", on the other hand, it was an opportunity to publicize nationalism and Aryan racial superiority and encourage German women to fight for the womb of the motherland.

The contemporary background of praising motherhood is also a vicious circle in structure: the state's insufficient investment in child-rearing social security and men's evasion of family work make women have to pay more attention to taking care of their children after giving birth, and employers use this as an excuse to tilt job recruitment opportunities and salary increase and promotion opportunities to men, making women's career prospects more and more bleak and having to turn to family work whose economic value is not officially recognized by society and culture. Under this structural background, although the rise of Mother's Day is caused by consumerism and popular culture, it is probably more about psychological compensation for the oppressed in the big structure. Instead of satirizing the behavior of "showing filial piety in the circle of friends on Mother's Day", it is better to pursue the reform of public policy and social culture so that the equality between men and women can be truly implemented.
