Some researchers lay emphasis on the relationship between the mothers and daughters while some others believe that it is the writing style that makes Amy Tan’s The Joy Luck Club a success.

Since the ancient times, more people pay attention to family education problems. Now almost all the parents care about family education. So we need to rethink what kind of family education is good. First of all, it is necessary to understand the definition of family education
“Harry Chester’s for Children and Institutes for Adults says, ‘Education is the development and training of the human being in all his capacities, spiritual, intellectual and physical……’”In the encyclopedia, the definition of family education explains this way: Parents or elder generation educate the child or teenage in family. “Family Education refers to parents’ influence on the children’s growth in the process of family interaction, and it is the most important part of all educational aspects”.Thus, family education is an important part of the whole education system. ，英语论文网站 |
