Taiwan has a long history of "Family Life Education." It has started since 1945. 2. After lifting martial law of 1987, many issues about females and families appeared due to rapid social and economic changes in Taiwan.

The acts are strongly influenced by NCFR programs, yet these keep their own culture and traditions. 4.
