Abstract

The view on children means how the society to regard and treat children. The view on children that adults, especially parents or teachers hold, has a very important impact on children’s rights, development, education and childhood life. There are many common views on children in society, for example: children are the private property of parents; children are born as a “white board”; children are “little adults”; children are “flowers and trees”; children are the hope of families, etc., but these views on children are not scientific enough. The reason why there are so many unscientific views on children in the society is as follows: parents lack scientific ideas on childcare; parents have traditional ideas; parents have great pressure on work and life, and whether the relationship between husband and wife is harmonious. In order to help parents to set up a scientific outlook on children, it is necessary to carry out certain training. However, the core of setting up a scientific outlook on children is to “treat children as independent individuals”. The so-called “treating children as independent individuals” means to respect children, follow the laws of children’s physiological development, and recognize and protect children’s rights. Only when adults have achieved the goal of “treating children as independent individuals”, can they truly establish a scientific outlook on children and truly promote the growth and development of children.
