卢迈：儿童早期发展不能等到有钱了再去做，那时候就晚了

Core Viewpoint - The importance of early childhood development and the need for community-driven parenting guidance, especially in rural areas, is emphasized by the former vice chairman of the China Development Research Foundation, Lu Mai [1][2]. Group 1: Early Childhood Development - A significant number of parents, particularly those engaged in intergenerational caregiving, may have an education level below primary school, raising concerns about their ability to nurture future builders of society [1][2]. - Early childhood development cannot be postponed until financial resources are available, as delays could lead to unmanageable costs for the nation [1][2]. Group 2: Community Support and Funding - There is a call to promote home-based parenting guidance services tailored for rural areas, aiming to reach at least 6 million families [1][2]. - As of now, 35 million yuan has been raised for next year's funding, but there remains a shortfall of 39 million yuan, highlighting the need for collective efforts to bridge this gap [1][2].
