Features: The process of children's education is an ongoing socialization process. How to respect socialization without hindering a child's personality development is something that quality education practice should prioritize! Personality is the driving force of creativity and an important foundation for happiness. In postmodern society, the continuous functionalization of education, whether in the world of adults or children, lacks happiness. Is your child happy? Is learning the reason for their happiness? Understanding your child and establishing appropriate principles based on their characteristics is not easy, and consistently applying these principles in practice is even harder. But this is the primary responsibility of being a parent! The author of this book studied in the UK for many years and obtained a Ph.D. in Science and a Master's degree in Education. With years of exploration in comparative education and early quality education, and by hosting Xiao Pei Educational Consulting overseas, the author has proposed three principles of quality education—namely the tripartite principles of society, family, and the individual—based on extensive educational consulting experience with overseas Chinese children. From the perspective of integrating diverse Eastern and Western cultures and modernization, these principles have been applied in practice and have received numerous successful feedbacks. This book is based on the growth experience of the author's daughter, etc., etc., with the children sharing their stories of growth and the parents discussing how they supported and guided them. It explores how simple and practical principles were established together with the children in practice, making education a joyful process and turning happiness into a key indicator of quality. This book not only deepens readers' understanding of quality education but also provides parents with practical references for parenting practice. It is an invaluable parenting resource for modern parents, and missing it would be a lifelong regret.
