The Parent-child Relationship Of Dual Earner Families

Since the establishment of new China,trad itional society was transformed into modern society rapidly.It is generally accepted that women has the same social status as men and they should pursue their care er development.Meanwhile,with rapid increasing in price,a large quantity of family women have to go out for living,which leads to general increase in dual career families.The senior high school period is a vital time for teenagers when they are pur suing ideals and f aith,cultivating ethical character,developing self-awareness,consolidating emotion and shaping personality.If parents don't pay great attention to their children in this period,many psychological and behavioral problems m ay occur easily.Under the background,it is a realistical challenge and a m eaningful and worthwh ile topic that we should learn how to improve parent-child relations and increase efficiency of emotional communication in dual career families.In the paper,I take some dual career families of A middle school in Jiujiang as an example,using case interview and questionnaires on students,parents and teachers to study and analyze the internal relations am ong parent-child relationship,parent-child contact time and parent-child communication status.I find that m ost students in A middle school can get along well with their parents,while a few ha ve a intense relation between them.I analyzed the pare nt-child relation ba sed on 3 grades and several families with different educational background,finding that senior 1 students have the longest communication tim e and the best communication attitude towards their parents while senior 3 student have the shortest communication time and senior 2 students have the worst communication attitud e because of the pressure of enrolment.There is no distinct differences on communication effect between 3 grades.In the research,I learned that factors including difference cognition between parents and children,parents' educational level,different parenting styles,conjugal relation,communication time and educational guiding of school all have remarkable effect on parent-child relation in dual-earners families.Conversely,the relation between parents and children also have a rem arkable effect on students' academic records,their socialization and m ental health.Faced with these problem s,I put forwards som e measures including solving em otional conflict between pare nts and children,improving communication efficiency,increasing care from schools and communities.
