Recently, videos with titles such as "3 minutes to teach you how to choose fruits correctly", "life tips you don't understand", and "teaching the life of the post-90s and post-2000s" have become popular on the internet. Some places have even launched offline life skills courses such as "public cooking classes" and "maintenance classes", and the quota is often limited in seconds. Recently, a survey of 1000 young people conducted by the Social Survey Center of the China Youth Daily on the joint questionnaire network showed that 44.2% of the interviewed young people felt they were "experts" in life, 45.7% of the interviewed young people said they were "barely", and 92.9% of the interviewed young people believed that even in the Internet age, it was still necessary to learn a variety of life skills. In daily life, many teenagers lack basic life skills. Needless to say, like the older generation, they can step on sewing machines to make clothes, repair bicycles, assemble radios, connect wires, and replace glass; Even making a simple home cooked meal and organizing and organizing a messy room has become a headache. Netizens exclaim: Elementary school students cannot peel boiled eggs or use brooms to sweep the floor; In college, some people even ask parents to come to the school regularly to do laundry and invite a housekeeping company to clean the dormitory; After work, "dark cuisine" and "fried kitchen" have become the "pain of growth" for young people. Although the division of labor in society is constantly refined, and various types of door-to-door services can meet daily needs, the reality of young people's lack of self-care ability reflected behind it is worth pondering by the general public. Especially, as more and more people choose to work and learn from home, the importance of life skills is becoming increasingly important. Although you can buy various services with money, cooking a delicious dinner for yourself and tidying up the cold room in a warm way is the essence of life and the source of happiness. Watching life skills videos can alleviate work and life stress, but personally experiencing, enjoying the process, and reaping the results can be a wonderful way to adjust one's life. The phenomenon of young people lacking life skills is actually the result of labor education being neglected for a time. For a period of time, society revered education but underestimated skills and labor. In school education, emphasis is placed on imparting knowledge rather than cultivating skills; In family education, parents also neglect the cultivation of their children's labor consciousness and miss opportunities to learn and master life skills. From this perspective, comprehensively strengthening labor education is the key to solving the problem. Labor education guides students to establish correct labor concepts and attitudes, which is one of the main contents of promoting the comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor. The Party and the government have issued the "Opinions on Comprehensively Strengthening Labor Education in Primary, Secondary and Primary Schools in the New Era", requiring that labor education be included in the entire process of talent cultivation; Revise the Education Law and officially incorporate "labor" into the education policy; Furthermore, by separating labor from comprehensive practical activity courses, labor courses have officially become a compulsory course in primary and secondary schools. Labor education has received unprecedented attention, and schools in various regions have also carried out rich practices and explorations, achieving positive results. Facing the needs of young people for life skills, school education should play a good role as the main channel and battlefield, and integrate labor education throughout the entire process of education. Not only should students master labor skills, but also pay attention to the cultivation and tempering of labor concepts, labor spirit, etc., and plant the seeds of advocating and respecting labor in the hearts of students. Not long ago, Xuhai Road Kindergarten in Jiangsu and Boyuan Experimental Kindergarten in Weifang, Shandong launched characteristic labor courses that became popular on the internet. On the one hand, this indicates that the concept of family education is undergoing a transformation, and parents recognize the importance of cultivating their children's labor skills and self-sufficiency from an early age; On the other hand, it also reminds some schools to pay attention to practical results and avoid going through motions when carrying out labor education. Only in this way can labor education win the recognition of students and parents, and truly benefit their growth, shouldering the responsibility of assisting students in their comprehensive development. From the perspective of family and society, it is more important to recognize the importance of cultivating labor awareness and skills for children's growth. Only by abandoning the past "arranged thinking" and "doting psychology" can children grow up through hands-on labor. From the thirst for life skills among young people, we also have a clear understanding of the practical significance and value of labor education for personal growth and development, as well as work and life. Labor creates happiness, and life shines with it. This is the true essence of life and the timeless melody of the progress of the times and social development. (Lai Xin She)
