In ancient family education, we always emphasized "righteousness" and "Tao", paid attention to virtue, and regarded "being a virtuous gentleman" as the basic requirement for children.
There are many cases about family education in ancient books, such as Confucius' godson, the godson who killed pigs, the godson who was tattooed by his mother-in-law, Zhuge Liang's godson, Fan Zhongyan's godson and Sima Guang's godson, as well as Confucius' family instruction, Yan's family instruction, Bao Zheng's family instruction and Zhu Xi's family instruction. These family precepts have become a very important part of traditional culture, reflecting the transmission of virtue, playing an enduring role in the long history, and fully embodying the ancients' great attention to the cultivation of virtue for future generations.
The ancient people's moral education in Chinese studies at home not only has a high standard of nourishing qi and peace, but also has the bottom line requirement of not damaging personality and ancestors; There are not only the words and deeds of etiquette, poetry and calligraphy, but also the daily behavior of "sweeping treasures early, reading vegetables, fish and pigs"; Not only do you have ethics to deal with your family and neighbors, but you also have feelings about your home and country to worry about, so that you can have fun and take responsibility.
Family education is mostly common language and real rules, but it can influence, infect and educate people in daily life, making people feel strong, tenacious and lasting moral power.
