How have life changes affected childhood and their lifestyle?

Until recently childhood was much shorter for most people in Western countries. Till about 1950, compulsory schooling ended at age 14, and the majority of teenagers started work then, and the numbers staying on in formal education beyond age 18 were tiny. My own impression is that there was a strong desire to grow up quickly and assume adult responsibility early. However, much of this relates to adolescence rather than childhood. From my own memories, parents were much less worried about safety (except where there were obvious dangers). There was less supervision and more freedom, especially from about age 8+. Having said that, in one important respect we were more strictly supervised. There were very definite times by which we had to be back home and in bed. Even at age 11, I had to be in bed by 8.15pm latest. My parents attached importance to having a childproof evening. :) Joncey A little postscript. Even 50 years ago, children grew up without electronic toys, so they had to play or invent their own games and amusements.

Who is chen Mao?

Researched History:

The Chen Mao School of Art began in Beijing, China as a private school that taught many styles of oil painting, watercolor and ink drawings to gifted children and adults.

Chu Yen Lo, one of China's famous artists opened the Chen Mao School of Art in 1955, naming it for his brother-in-law, whom he greatly admired for his drawing and teaching ability. Chen Mao initially contributed to the funding needed to open Chu's, Chen Mao School of Art.

Although Chen Mao did not paint in oil or watercolor, he was a master of pen and ink techniques. Chu Yen Lo developed the techniques of heavily textured oil paint and the use of horse hair for depth, teaching these signature techniques to his students for the next seven years.

Out growing the small space in Beijing, Chu Yen Lo moved the school to a larger space in Hong Kong. Chen Mao, not wishing to move, returned to teaching at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. Chu Yen Lo hired three very talented former graduates in Hong Kong with plans of catering to tourists. All students were instructed to signed their work with the school's name "Chen Mao" and began using the Chinese character (in red paint) for the Chen Mao School of Art in the mid-1970s.

With slow sales, Chu Yen Lo shipped over 300 of the student's completed oil paintings to United States and Great Britain to be sold through art dealers and galleries. To fund the additional costs, all the artwork produced by students were sold once completed, inspected and approved.

By the early 1980s, there were thousands of oil paintings in the U.S. market. So many in fact that at-home-art-parties dominated the majority of sales. Prices plummeted. Ready to retire, Chu Yen Lo sold the school to Zhang Yong.

As of October 2016, Chen Mao is living in an assisted living and nursing facility, the Jianghu Zhuangyuan (General's Garden), in Beijing.

Notes: The Chen Mao School of Art did not provide or authorize any "Certificates of Authenticity" (COA) nor did they when selling in bulk to art resellers in the USA and Europe. Any claim of a COA is not authentic because it is unknown which student painted which painting.

In 1958 a program called Great Leap Forward was established in china to speed up economic development?

Conceived by Mao Tse Tung, the goal of the "Great Leap Forward" was to build China's economy to match America's by 1988.Mao planned to develop both agriculture and industry; he believed that both had to grow to allow the other to grow. Industry could only prosper if the work force was well fed, while the agricultural workers needed industry to produce the modern tools needed for modernization.

Mao divided the country into communes, with 5,000 families per commune. They were encouraged to set up "back-yard" production plants, and some 600,000 backyard furnaces added a considerable amount of steel to China’s annual total. However this drew workers out of the fields, and with 1959 and 1960 being years of bad harvests, some 20 million Chinese died of starvation or starvation-related disease by 1962 and Mao admitted the "Great Leap Forward" was a mistake.
