Since the publication of 198 1, The Letter from Fu Lei has been selling well in China for decades, and it has been praised as "an educational classic that parents must read" and "a masterpiece of teenagers' ideological cultivation". But in this book, which is regarded as an educational classic, Fu Lei is a father who often uses violence against children and has a strong desire for control.

The Board of Education

Fu Lei's earnest and irritable personality is vividly displayed in educating children. His "stick tutor" not only brought physical harm to children, but also left an indelible shadow in their hearts.

The child's pain

Both Fu Cong and Fu Min recalled their father's violent behavior in their books. The scar on Fu Cong's nose was caused by a plate thrown by his father when he was angry. Fu Min also described the horrible scene of his father's corporal punishment. Even after they grow up, Fu Lei will still be furious with them because of some small things, which will make them feel scared and uneasy.

Repentance and guilt

Although Fu Lei later expressed his remorse and guilt for his children in his letters home, this cannot hide his past harm to children. This kind of "bonzi tutoring" will not only help children's growth and education, but will make them more rebellious and inferior.

Care and support

So we call on parents to abandon this violent education and adopt more gentle and effective methods to guide their children's growth. Only by letting children thrive in an environment full of care and support can we really cultivate a healthy, confident and caring new generation.
