ABSTRACT

As China's economic development level is getting higher and higher, most rural youth or middle-aged people choose to go out to work in order to improve the material conditions of family life. Over time, the lack of family education for left-behind children has received more and more attention. In 2021, China proposed the “Comprehensive Implementation of the Rural Revitalization Strategy” to improve the quality of rural education development. In 2022, the “Family Education Promotion Law of the People’s Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as the law) will be further implemented, which clearly states that family education takes moral cultivation as the fundamental task to promote the healthy growth of minors. However, the family education of left-behind children in rural areas still has problems such as backward educational concepts and lack of parental education. To effectively alleviate this social problem still requires the efforts of families, schools, society and the government. If we can take the law as an opportunity, we can provide new ideas and directions for the family education of rural left-behind children in the new era, so that these children can grow up healthily and happily.
