Abstract:: The Family Education Promotion Law of the People’s Republic of China is a law to mobilize the whole society to carry out family education. Its legislative purpose is reflected in the following aspects: to put into effect the policy of the Communist Party of China and the State to promote family construction and children’s growth in the new era; to define the responsibility of the family in the form of national law for ensuring the sound growth of children in the new era; and to unite the whole society to build a high-quality family education guidance and service system in the new era. This law provides a special legal basis for the implementation of family education guidance. Its legal connotation is as follows: the law with a promotive purpose reflects the programmatic requirements of family education service; its normative requirements clarify the responsibilities of parents for the growth of their children; its mission-oriented responsibility requires the government to ensure the public welfare of family education; and the collaborative governance it requires establishes the responsibility of each subject to support family construction. In order to implement this high-quality law, we should innovate the way of study and implementation, strengthen the cooperation between research and practice, improve the restraint and incentive systems, and strengthen the government’s accountability.
