Filial piety has been a fine tradition of our country since ancient times, and our country in ancient times also upheld the concept of governing the country with filial piety, so we attach great importance to this aspect. Shortly after this article was published, Li Hanqiu, president of the Chinese Mother's Day Promotion Association, proposed the establishment of Chinese Mother's Day. In December 2006, the four core initiators of "Mother's Day", namely the Festival Emblem Culture Committee of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the Zoucheng Municipal Party Committee and Government, the Beijing Oriental Morality Research Institute, and the Shijiazhuang Primary and Secondary School Students' Extracurricular Comprehensive Practice Activity Base, formally established the "Chinese Mother's Day Promotion Association". Based on the ancient story of "Mencius' Mother Moved Three Times", they proposed to use Mencius' mother as the image representative of Chinese Mother's Day, and also designated the difficult day when Mencius' mother gave birth to Mencius (the second day of the fourth lunar month) as Chinese Mother's Day.
