"Filial piety is the foundation of virtue." This sentence comes from the "Filial Piety", which is the core sentence of the "Filial Piety Chapter", that is, the first chapter. In essence, it is also the core sentence of the entire "Filial Piety". Confucianists, based on the theory of virtue and virtue, attribute the foundation of self-cultivation to Mingming virtue. The foundation of virtue is "benevolence", "benevolence" is "filial piety", and "filial piety is also the foundation of benevolence!". Benevolent people love others. Based on natural human reasoning, the heart of love should begin with parents. The love for parents should be attributed to "filial piety". Without "filial piety", there is no love for others. "Benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trust", "gentleness, courtesy, thrift and accommodation" can not be mentioned. "Filial piety", as a natural emotion, is universal; As a link between individuals and society, it has opened up the distinction between family and country and promoted the realization of individual social values; As the foundation of morality and the source of education, it nourishes the soul, continues civilization, and maintains social stability and order. At present, vigorously promoting and practicing the virtue of filial piety, creating a social atmosphere of loving, respecting and helping the elderly, and leading the social trend of filial piety, filial piety and filial piety are the requirements of the times to continuously improve the life and quality of life of the elderly. To promote and practice the virtue of filial piety, we need to pay more attention to the mental health of the elderly. The demand for the elderly continues to exert pressure on the social security system, and the elderly gradually lose their traditional social prestige, which is often described as a social burden. The meaning of "old" is increasingly negative. This social cognitive bias needs to be corrected. Common problems of the elderly, such as neurasthenia, psychological loss, loneliness and loneliness, also need to be systematically addressed. Therefore, daily care and psychological support services for the elderly should be further strengthened. First, we should encourage the elderly to have something to do. To meet the working wishes of the elderly in various ways, especially to guide them to participate in the tertiary industry or network economy related industries suitable for their work. Second, pay attention to the reconstruction and expansion of family support and social relations. The family can provide material care and psychological support for the elderly group. At the same time, the elderly group should be encouraged to participate widely in collective and social activities, and establish a new support network through sharing, communication, confiding, mutual assistance and other forms. Third, pay attention to the developmental goal of the elderly. Compared with "therapeutic", "developmental" does not only focus on psychological problems and treatment of psychological diseases, but also on the psychological ability and positive attitude of the elderly, so that more elderly people can achieve the improvement of their psychological status and quality. To promote and practice the virtue of filial piety, we need to focus on enriching the digital life of the elderly.
