Abstract
Both the number of migrant workers and the number of kids being left behind have substantially increased since the programme was opened up. This study attempts to show how parental migration affects children who are left behind and explore the causes of such negative effects. It turns out that when parents move away, it has a variety of repercussions on the children who are left behind, including their emotional health, academic performance, level of cooperation, and cognitive development. Governments must play a crucial role towards enhancing the living conditions for children who have been left behind in rural areas. This includes providing more opportunities for migrant workers to reunite with their families, providing greater opportunities and time for parents to watch their children, and emphasising relative caring policies in teachers' daily lesson plans. Rural families also have to change their mindset for degrees, and giving more expectations of their children’s learning.
