With the increasing attention of the academic community and society to family education,parents and families play an increasingly important role in children's growth and development.More and more studies show that parents' participation in education can improve children's academic achievements and promote their social development.However,many studies have pointed out that compared with the upper and middle class families,the parents of the lower class families seldom participate in education,and the participation is mostly of low quality,especially in the rural lower class families.At present,there are many researches on "parents' participation in education".Most of the existing researches use quantitative tools to analyze the stratification of parents' participation in education,the factors affecting parents' participation in education,and the effect of parents' participation in education,etc.,and few take rural parents as the main body and qualitative research methods as the tools to explore the logic and explanation behind the concept and behavior of parents' participation in education.Based on this,on the premise that parents' participation can effectively improve their children's academic achievements and promote social development,this paper attempts to take Bourdieu's capital theory as a guide,choose a rural junior high school D in D town of Anhui Province as the research site,select 10 pairs of students and parents as the main research objects,take D school and the relevant teachers as the auxiliary research objects,and use observation and interview methods to "rural families" The theme of "long education participation" is to collect data,so as to form an analysis of the problems,causes and solutions of the cognition and action of rural parents' education participation.The study found that rural parents' participation in or education of their children's participation was not the first one,which was influenced by economic capital,which was reflected in the periodic lifestyle of family choice,the rural core of the children's education expenditure and the family structure of the second child,and the negative impact of the "Internet plus" era on the rural parents.Secondly,the lack of cultural capital of rural parents also plays an important role,which is reflected in: the low amount of objective cultural capital of rural parents,the outdated of their physical cultural capital,and the extensive language coding,poor speech,violent tendency and incorrect ideas caused by these factors.Finally,the lack of economic capital and cultural capital makes their social capital network very sparse and fragile.As a result,the rural parents and their children are assimilated into one of the accompany army because they are too obedient when they communicate at home and school.However,if the other rural parents with strong social capital are not recognized advantages and school resistance through their own knowledge and outstanding contributions,most of them will be rejected by the school and their children due to theparticipation of poor education,so they will be eliminated in advance.Triple capital is like three big mountains on rural parents.In order to alleviate this situation,it requires the efforts of local township governments,schools and parents.The local government should not only develop the economy,but also create an atmosphere of respecting teachers and teaching.Schools should also undertake the responsibility of We should create more opportunities for home school communication and guide parents to participate in education.Parents,as the protagonists,should take the initiative to change their ideas and prepare for the development of hardware and software for their children.
