1. Introduction

Chinese Confucian School holds that family education is the basis of governing the country. John Locke, a famous British philosopher, regards family education as a starting point of one person’s education. As the primary site to conduct formative education, family plays a critical role in the cultivation of good habits and the development of intelligence for children. Family education, the earliest education of all, occupies the most important position for the reason that it shapes personal world outlook, philosophy and values(Frank, 1966:10). However, with the process of globalization, Chinese family education cannot satisfy the needs of the new era for a deficiency of theoretical guidance and practical experience. As is known to all, America is a nation with both strong economy and well-developed education which advocates quality-oriented education instead of exam-oriented education. Numerous differences exist in the objectives, content and methods of family education between China and America. This thesis carries out a comparative study of family education methods on the basis of When a Peking Family Meets Aupair and Little Miss Sunshine to draw lessons from the excellence in American education on account of China’s actual conditions, which helps the Chinese eliminate the long-standing mistaken concepts and exerts efforts to the advancement of Chinese family education. The introduction of the two films mentioned above is as follows.
