【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 o the children brought by their grandparents. According to the investigation, percents of the leftover children belong to this case in Xinhu Primary School. Most of these children’s grandparents are very old and in bad health. Even some of them still need to do heavy housework. Generally speaking, there is a generation gap between the children and their grandparents. Because of the differences of the circumstances, views and values of different generations must be different and thus generation gap appears. Because of the lack of knowledge about the children, some grandparents tend to project their wishful ideas on their grandchildren, thus widening the general gap. The gap usually makes the young and their grandparents often fail to municate with each other. Even sometimes although the children listen to their grandparents’ words, they do not put them into heart. By doing this, they send false messages to each other. In a word, the grandparents often fail to understand their grandchildren. However, another circumstance would be that the grandparents spoil their grandchildren overly without moral and spiritual guidance, so that they cannot educate children successfully.The second one is that children under their relatives’ custody. This style of custody refers to the children brought up by their relatives or their parents’ peers, such as aunts and uncles. However, children are more sensitive. It is easy for them to feel the sense of depending on others or being discriminated. They will bee more withdrawn and more dissociable, which will make a negative influence on their study. In this case, the children’s custodians are changeable, so that they cannot learn in a steady environment. According to the investigation, percents of the leftover children belong to this situation in Xinhu Primary School.The last one is that children under their teachers’ custody. This situation just appears in the recent several years. Some rich families entrust their children to their teachers or their head teachers. In Xinhu Primary School, percents of the leftover children belong to this situation. According to the investigation, a teacher would take care of five or six leftover children. The disadvantage of this style of custody is that the teachers have no enough time to look after these leftover children, because the number of the children which the teacher need to take care is big, and the teachers are always busy with their own work and daily life. The Lack of Family EducationAccording to the result of the investigation, in the local leftover children’s families, percents of their parents return home three to four times a year, and percents of them only go back home once or twice a year. Unfortunately, most of them cannot stay at home for a longer time. Low frequency of returning home and little munication with the leftover children will result in the lack of family education, which can also make children suffer from a variety of psychological problems.First of all, the leftover children’s world views, outlook on life and value system are influenced by materials deeply without proper education and guidance. Since their parents always work far away from home for a long time, there is little munication between parents and children. Therefore, they often use money to keep the relationship with their children. This situation will make children develop the worship of golden calf, which may weaken the links between parents and children. When the children suffer from troubles or difficulties, they don’t want to municate with parents, or talk with their teachers in school, so that they often abandon themselves, and live with pessimistic feelings. And they will feel the sense of loneliness, because of the lack of trust and the sense of security.Second, in their emotion life, the leftover children are short of plete care and munication. It is easy for them to suffer from psychological disorder. The longtime separation with parents makes the leftover children can not feel their parents’ love in the daily life. And it makes them cannot receive the spiritual support from parents when they fall in trouble. Their mistakes also can not be guided or corrected in time. As time passes, they will e into being obvious psychological troubles. For instance, they own inferiority mentality universally. They are bad at munication with others. They have great pressure on their mind. They have a strong sense of selfpreservation and even have acute behaviors.

Social Factors The Gap between Urban and Rural EducationThe gap between urban and rural education is an important factor which motivates the appearance of the leftover children.
