Abstract

The report highlights results from a collaborative research program coordinated by the China Youth and Children Research Center. Trends are based on responses from over 4,000 children ages 6 to 14 in 45 districts, counties, and county-level cities as well as from other surveys and assessments of Chinese primary and secondary school children. Some comparisons are made between rural and urban children. The following issues are addressed: physical development, health, parent-child relationships, self-acceptance, awareness of rules and laws, awareness of equality and tolerance for differences, awareness of environmental concerns, consumption attitudes and behaviors, use of leisure time, academic pressures, participation in the Young Pioneers, and the influence of children on adults. The report addresses areas of progress as well as concerns facing modern Chinese children in a rapidly changing economic, political, and cultural climate.
