Parents gave birth to me, nurtured me, watched over me, carried me, raised me, and nurtured me—this is the ultimate virtue, as described in the Book of Songs. Parents give birth to me, raise me, carry me in and out, take care of me in every way, and educate me as I grow older. The kindness of parents towards me is beyond words. The World of Parents lets us realize how urgently we need filial piety. — Li Baokui (National Committee Member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference)
To innovate while adhering to principles—what to adhere to? It is to uphold the cultural standards and spiritual values of our nation. Innovation and adherence—The World of Parents handles these relationships very well. — Meng Xianglin (Deputy Director of the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China)
The World of Parents evokes deep emotion, touching the heart. It tells the stories of love between fathers, mothers, and children, reflecting the beautiful emotional exchanges in the world. The entire program is beautifully crafted. — Jin Delong (Director of the Propaganda Management Department of the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television)
Fifty touching stories that moved China, broadcast live from the The World of Parents studio and shared with millions of families. Some guests even knelt before their parents on-site and couldn’t stand up. Many viewers cried while watching the program, saying, "We should do more for our parents and spend more time with them." Tears are not just about sadness; they are more about deep emotion. We strive to let these moving stories open the conscience that has been covered by material desires and sweep away the true feelings buried by money. Therefore, we compiled the touching stories that moved the Chinese people in Filial Piety and the Way and its series of books, using heartfelt stories to convey the deepest love in the world:
Discussing emotions, but not limited to familial bonds—there are small emotions and great emotions, spreading the values of the Eight Honors and Eight Disgraces as the core of the era’s sentiments. Talking about family, but not confined to it—there is family and then the nation, reflecting the great spirit of building a harmonious society today.
