Filial piety is the basic code of ethics in the ancient Chine society. Chine people consider filial pi
ety as the esnce of a person’s integrity, family harmony, and the nation’s well-being. With filial piety being the core of Confucian ethics, it has been the moral standard for the Chine society to maintain the family relationship for thousands of years. It’s undoubtedly a traditional Chine virtue. The culture of filial piety is a complex concept, rich in content and wide in range. It concludes not only cultural ideas but also institutional etiquettes. Generally speaking, it refers to the obligation of children to their parents required by the society, including respect, care, support for the elderly and so forth. Filial piety is fundamental to the ancient “Oriental civilization”.
