孝慈精神对现代家庭伦理的重要意义

The Importance of Dutiful-kind Spirit to the Establishment of Modern Family Ethics

孝与慈是传统家庭伦理的基本规范,而支撑这种基本规范的是孝慈精神。孝慈精神就是中国传统文化所养育的、调节家庭长辈与晚辈之间利益关系的价值理念,即长辈应关心爱护晚辈以尽慈道、晚辈应敬爱长辈以尽孝道的思想意识。孝慈精神对于构建现代家庭伦理具有三重意义:一是家庭纵向伦理关系的内在需求;二是现代家庭功能实现的伦理保证;三是构建现代家庭伦理的重要资源。

Being dutiful and kindness is a basic norm in family life,but what supports them is the dutiful-kind spirit.The dutiful-kind spirit is the axiological idea nurtured by the traditional Chinese culture and used to adjust the interest relation between father and son,which is the ideological consciousness that the father should love and care for the son so as to practice the theory of duty,and the son should respect and love the father so as to practice the theory of kindness.The dutiful-kind spirit is very important to the establishment of modern family ethics.There are three reasons： the first is that it is what the portrait ethical relation in family life needs immanently;the second is that it supplies an ethical guarantee for the realization of family functions;the third is that it is the important resource for establishing modern family ethics.
