Filial piety and respect for elders. Honoring parents and elders are the minimum moral qualities that each of us should have, and they are also the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.
Many proletarian revolutionaries of the older generation have set shining examples for us in filial piety and respect for elders.
After the victory of the revolution, Comrade Mao Zedong returned to his hometown and specially presented a bunch of pine branches in front of his parents' graves. He bowed deeply and said softly: "Forefathers have worked hard, and future generations will be happy!" Commander-in-Chief Zhu De In the article "Remembering My Mother", I wrote affectionately: "I love my mother, especially her hardworking life. Many things are worth remembering forever." ------Revolutionary leaders are working hard for the future of the motherland , when working hard for the fate of mankind, we have not forgotten the nurturing grace of our parents and elders.
Filial piety and respect for elders means caring, caring and taking care of parents and elders. But Xiao Ming's family is not like this. One day, at dinner, my mother cooked a fish and divided the fish into five pieces. They gave the head of the fish to Grandpa, the tail to Grandma, the bottom piece of the fish head to Dad, the top piece of the fish tail to Mom, and the middle piece of fish. Xiao Ming's belly was given to Xiao Ming, and his parents and Xiao Ming were very happy to eat the fish, but the grandparents frowned and got angry. Look at the adults and children in this family who don't even have the basic moral character of filial piety and respect for their elders. This is too much. So selfish. Don’t they think about who raised them? This reminds me of a famous saying by Anonymous: "The growth of trees is due to the nourishment of the land, and the growth of children is due to the hard work of their parents."
The elders care about our growth meticulously, and at the same time, they work hard Work on the ground and contribute to the construction of the motherland. How amiable and respectable they are! How can we not honor our parents and respect our elders!
Currently, with the improvement of people's living standards, the popularization of medical knowledge, and the improvement of medical conditions, the average life span of people continues to extend, and the proportion of the elderly in the population has increased significantly. Therefore, how to treat parents and elders will also be an important social issue.
We should cultivate the good character of filial piety and respect for our elders from an early age. When we grow up, we should assume the obligation to support our parents and elders, so that they can be supported and happy in old age, and let the Chinese nation's virtues of filial piety and respect for their elders be passed down from generation to generation!
