Features: The game between children and parents is an educational game and a game of growth. The rules of the game are determined by the parents first. During the game, children first follow the rules, then question and evade the rules, and finally challenge the rules. This gradual process actually occurs in every family. The letter before us touches upon a series of major issues related to modern family relationships. In the letter, Kafka reveals the spiritual oppression he experienced from his father during his upbringing and delves into an in-depth exploration and reflection on issues such as personal growth, identity formation, family games, role transitions, and the relationship between educational methods and outcomes. It is a classic text for interpreting modern family relationships.
