Early and basic
Children still live in a family environment most of the time. During this period, they not only get their own physiological and living needs from their parents, but also get to know the outside world from their parents' words and expressions, and form a preliminary impression of human society from their parents' attitudes towards society, others and themselves.
Naturalness and randomness
In family education, the most frequent and abundant influence is the moral character, interest, personality and lifestyle that parents and other family members naturally show on their children consciously or unconsciously in their daily lives. This reflects the naturalness of family education. The naturalness of family education leads to its randomness.
Long-term and continuity
The family's responsibility and obligation for children's education is not temporary or short-term, but long-term and lifelong. Family is a permanent educational place, and parents are lifelong teachers, which makes family education continuous and enables the educated to receive education in a cumulative way under the influence of a stable and continuous family.
