Education and national traditions

Let's include each other, but let's be clear. Although some things in modern education are not suitable for teaching China people, a considerable part of traditional culture is no longer suitable for modern China people. At present, the concept of education is an educational method that absorbs western culture. Although it has inherited some traditional educational models in China, it is not pure. As a result, some busybodies attacked modern education, saying that they should attach importance to Chinese studies, restore them and abandon modern education.

But I don't think this is right. As something that has been circulating in China for nearly a thousand years, or even a hundred years, traditional culture represents China, but not all of it should be inherited and carried forward. Although modern education has absorbed some western ideas, it should not be completely abandoned and denied. Education and traditional culture should be interdependent, learn from each other's strengths, and should be mutually inclusive, learn from each other and develop together.

Current education should appropriately add some inheritance and development to traditional culture, but it should not be a complete inheritance. For example, the Confucian school, being mean to women is the dross that should be discarded. Especially since the Song Dynasty, Cheng Zhu's Neo-Confucianism persecuted women more seriously. Should these things be inherited? There are also some stories about human extinction in the famous twenty-four filial piety. Should this be inherited?

What's more, the kind of loyalty and filial piety that are widely publicized in some Confucian classics should not be inherited, but abandoned. Except the dross, other things with China traditional cultural and artistic value should be preserved and inherited, and should be added to preschool and school-age education, so that the younger generation in China can understand these things. Needless to say, the things invented by our ancestors can only be seen by outsiders, and our own local ones have become extinct.
