YES
Putting forward the filial piety standards is aimed to promote the traditional Chinese virtue of respecting the elderly. China has a long history of stressing filial piety, which forms the core of family values. Compared with the traditional filial devotion, the new standards are more up to date and relevant to modern society. The new standards are an innovative way of inheriting the essence of filial culture.
The modern society lays great stress on the legal regulation while filial piety which depends on people’s moral sense and inner discipline seems unable to prevail. What we need now is a code of conduct that helps to persuade people to practice filial piety. These standards do not intend to force people to obey filial principles by law, but provide them with a guideline.
NO
As a moral requirement for human beings, filial piety is unlikely to have perfect standards. Real filial piety is not something to be shown off to others, but something buried deeply in one’s heart. Due to different living and working environment, the ways of practicing filial piety may be different. It is unwise to require every child to follow the same standards. Besides, the new standards are not feasible in modern days as many people live far away from their parents and have little time outside of work.
The implementation of these new filial standards is not the right solution to the problem of China’s aging population. As for the government, it is more effective to build up more state-run nursing homes rather than issue filial standards in order to solve the problem.

答案
Filial Piety Should Not Be Regulated
Filial piety, as the traditional Chinese virtue, has always been advocated by the public. But should it be regulated for people to carry out? Some people deem it as the effective way to preach the traditional virtue of respecting the elderly in the new era. However, some hold that filial piety should be instilled rather than be regulated. Each individual has his own understanding of filial piety and will practice in different ways.
From my personal angle, filial piety, as the legacy of our traditional culture, should be inherited but not be regulated. We tend to have blind faith in the omnipotence of regulation. But most often, the greatest talkers are always the least doers. The sense of filial obedience is supposed to be inculcated in us. What is essential for us is to form good morality in our society. In addition, the government should also play an important role in providing health and retirement insurance for the senior citizens. The construction of the community for old people is conducive for them.
On the whole, filial piety is an inseparable part of Chinese culture. It is our duty to pass it on to the next generation.
