First of all, Qi Huangong initiated the establishment of "Kwai Meng".
When it comes to the protection of children's rights and interests in ancient times, everyone is familiar with Mencius' sentence "Young people are young", which was Qi Xuanwang's answer to Mencius at that time. That is, the earliest theory of "being kind to children".
In the pre-Qin period, when Zhou Wang promulgated the national policy, he took "treating the young well" as the first rule.
"Kwai Qiu Huimeng" was initiated by Qi Huangong. Qi, Lu, Song and other countries participated in the formation of Meng Hui. At the meeting, he put forward the program of "respecting the old and loving the young" and implemented it in the future national policy. Qi then set up a special organization to protect children's rights and interests, granted tax relief or subsidies according to the number of children in the family, and even sent more nannies to supply rations, which can be said to attach great importance to the protection of children's rights and interests.
Second, Confucius put forward the viewpoint of "enlightenment and righteousness".
Confucius believes that it is the work of saints to educate children and cultivate their excellent character.
Therefore, since the pre-Qin period, great importance has been attached to the construction of primary schools, and bookstores and libraries in the Eastern Han Dynasty all belong to the category of primary schools. At the same time, the corresponding textbooks have been provided for primary schools, and Shi Shuan Pian is a children's literacy textbook in the pre-Qin period.
In the Han dynasty, it has become a social consensus to let children go to school, and young children have entered the chapter of school learning. In the Tang and Song Dynasties, the central government ordered local schools to be built, which shows the importance attached to children's education.
To sum up, ancient society attached great importance to children's education and rights protection. Respecting the old and loving the young is not only a slogan preached in books, but also a virtue and kindness handed down from ancient times to the present. An excellent and civilized society will care for children and ensure their healthy growth. After all, they are the future.
