Filial piety is very important in China traditional culture. China people attach importance to family and filial piety, and pay attention to obedience. Modern civilization and thought pay more attention to people's independence and advocate "gratitude". A filial person must first have a grateful heart, be grateful to the elders for their efforts, and know how to repay, so as to be "filial", and "obedient" can accept and obey the thoughts and concepts of the elders.

The education of filial piety focuses on the family, and the exemplary role of parents is very important. It is difficult for a person who is not filial to the elderly to educate filial children, because children will take such behavior for granted when they witness their parents doing so from an early age.

There is a folk story about an unfilial couple who feel that their old mother is useless when she is old. One day, my son carried his old mother to the mountain in a basket and wanted to throw it into the mountain. As a result, the grandson followed. When I came back, my grandson took a basket for my grandmother, and my son said it was unnecessary. Sun Tzu said, I'll use it when you're old and throw it to you.

Parents take care of their elders, and children will naturally do the same in the future.

In addition to parents' actions and setting an example, children can be subtly educated to be grateful by telling stories, reading picture books and watching various works of art.

Spring breeze melts rain, moistens things quietly, so should filial piety education. Let children learn to be grateful in every bit of life, in every word and deed, instead of instilling it as a course.
