How to use traditional virtues to correct unhealthy phenomena in contemporary society

Social atmosphere is a kind of hidden constraint force in society, which has a great influence and adjustment on the formation of life concepts and behavior choices of the majority of social members (including teenagers), and bad tendencies are a serious obstacle to the formation of teenagers' virtues. In the process of social transformation in China, due to the imperfection and disharmony of various systems, serious corruption and human relations, coexistence of moral flaunting and moral exclusion under the background of money worship, indifference of interpersonal relations, lack of social responsibility, supremacy of consumption, addiction to entertainment and other unhealthy social atmosphere have emerged in the macro society. Unhealthy trends have also infiltrated schools and families to a great extent. In school, it is characterized by one-sided emphasis on knowledge transmission, formalization of virtue education, lack of teachers' educational beliefs, and the evolution of education into utilitarian practice. In the family, parents are content with the status quo and pay attention to material enjoyment, so it is difficult to serve as a demonstration of virtue; Family education emphasizes preserving our sanity, pursuing utility, and lacks the cultivation of lofty ideals and social responsibility consciousness; Parents regard the purpose of education as the entrance of utility, and lose the whole-person care of education. The "unhealthy tendencies" in society, schools and families lead to the common moral problems of teenagers: hypocrisy and dishonesty; Self-centered, indifferent interpersonal relationship, no sense of cooperation; Life is numb, lacking enterprising spirit and sense of responsibility for life; Weak sense of order and lack of self-restraint; Waste wealth, pursue high consumption, etc. To truly correct the moral problems among young students, we must systematically study the realistic social atmosphere, and take practical and effective measures to improve the social atmosphere in view of the social system and ideological roots that cause unhealthy trends and related moral problems, so as to make it a suitable soil for the growth of young people's virtues.
