Example is better than words, and parents' attitude towards their elders directly affects their children's behavior. Some parents ask their children to be filial to themselves, but ignore or even abuse their elders. It is the so-called "disrespect for elders", and their "filial piety" education for their children is definitely ineffective. Therefore, parents should set a good example for their children, be filial to their parents, be kind to their elders, care for their parents, fulfill their children's obligations and repay their kindness in raising them. Therefore, we should not only take care of our small family, but also take care of our elderly parents at all times. Never forget Lao Tzu after adding a son. If we can't get along with the elderly because we live far away and are busy with work, then we should try our best to take time to take our children to visit the elderly on holidays, help them do some housework, play with them and fulfill their responsibilities and obligations. For such a long time, children will naturally be influenced by it, and gradually develop a good habit of respecting their elders and honoring their parents.
2. Let children learn to be grateful.
Gratitude is the foundation of filial piety. However, gratitude is not a natural emotion and must be educated. Nowadays, many children don't know their parents' jobs and how their parents get their money. All they know is asking their parents for money to buy this and that. They think it is natural for parents to eat, dress and use their children well. Therefore, parents should consciously and often tell their children about their work and income outside, so that children can understand that their parents' money is hard to come by. Children will naturally cherish their own lives gradually, and they will also feel grateful and respectful to their parents from the bottom of their hearts.
Gratitude also needs the church to produce. If you love children, you should let them do some housework for you when you are busy. When you are tired, let your child beat your back; When appropriate, let children do what they can. Let children feel their parents' love for him from ordinary little things in life, so they love their parents and feel loved in love. When children grow up, they will have a grateful heart when they encounter difficulties and setbacks.
3. Filial piety education starts with small things.
Let children develop the good habit of filial piety to their parents, and start from small things to shape and cultivate them. For example, educate children to care about their parents' health, help parents share their worries and help parents do housework. Parents should be patient when children can't do it. Don't criticize the child for doing something wrong. Children should be praised and encouraged when they are done well. Only through personal practice and experience can children feel the hardships of their parents and taste the happiness that their parents have paid for others. When children's concept of "my parents raised me, I should do more for them" is gradually formed, children will have a sense of obligation and responsibility for life.
Cultivating children's "filial piety" requires parents' persuasiveness and patience, so that children can develop good habits from an early age.
