I think it is necessary to set the labor course as an independent course in primary and secondary schools.

It reflects the value orientation that the whole society attaches importance to the labor ability of primary and secondary school students, which is conducive to improving the accumulation of common sense and exercising life skills of primary and secondary school students, and is also more conducive to cultivating students' practical ability.

First, many children can only do homework now, lacking the necessary life skills and basic common sense. Because of the heavy schoolwork, many children have uneven limbs and are unwilling to work. Apart from doing homework, they lack the necessary life skills.

Second, the combination of work and rest is good for health. Heavy schoolwork leads to students' physical and mental exhaustion, and many students even have health problems. Therefore, offering labor classes is conducive to freeing children from schoolwork, experiencing life and contacting the world outside books.

However, school education alone is not enough for labor education, which requires the joint efforts of schools, families and society.

At present, the labor courses offered by the school can only do some simple introductory and basic education, and a lot of education still needs to be improved and further developed through practice. In this process, the family can play a more important role in labor education.

We say that parents are children's first teachers, and they play a very important role, that is, helping children grow up in work life education and character education, instead of just paying attention to subject education and sending their children to training classes as some parents did in the past. This is actually a kind of role dislocation.

We believe that the most important thing in family education is to teach children how to be a man and how to be a man, and the second is to enable children to live independently and happily, that is, life education and labor education.
