It is generally accepted that the experiences of the child in his first years largely determine his character and later personality.Every experience teaches the child something and the effects are cumulative(累积的)．“Upbringing” is normally used to refer to the treatment and training of the child within the home.This is closely related to the treatment and training of the child in school, which is usually described by the term“education”．
In a society such as ours, both parents and teachers are responsible for the opportunities provided for the development of the child, so that upbringing and education are dependent on each other.The ideas and practices of child raising vary from culture to culture.In general, the more rural the community (社区) is, the more uniform are the customs of child upbringing.In more technologically developed

societies, the period of childhood and adolescence tends to last over a long time, resulting in more opportunity for education and greater variety in character development.
Early upbringing in the home is naturally affected both by the cultural pattern of the community and by the parents’abilities and their aims and depends not only on upbringing and education but also on the innate (先天的) abilities of the child.Wide differences of innate intelligence and character exist even in children of the same family.Intelligent parents, however, realize that the particular setting of each family is unique, and there can be no strict general rules.All parents have to solve the problems of freedom and discipline(纪律)．The younger the child is, the more readily the mother gives in to his demands to avoid disappointing him.She knows that if his energies are not put to good use, her child may begin to develop in an unhealthy way.A child must be allowed to enjoy this “messy” stage of discovery before he is ready to go on to the less physical pleasures of toys and books.Similarly, throughout life, each stage depends on the satisfactory completion of the one before.
