Abstract：Objective To investigate effect of parental labor migration on early development of children aged 0~3 years old. Methods A total of 2 648 pairs of children and their caregivers were investigated with information from surveys in the poor rural areas of Shanxi and Guizhou provinces in 2013. World Health Organization (WHO) criterion and Ages & Stages Questionnaires, Third Edition (ASQ-3), were used to access the condition of early development of children. Results Compared with non-left behind children, children with father-only labor migration had 0.60 and 0.68 times risk of growth retardation and underweight, respectively. Children with both-parental labor migration had 1.95, 1.57, 1.67, 1.61 and 1.39 times risk of getting potential delay in communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem solving and overall development delay, respectively (P<0.05). Children with both-parent labor migration had about one third possibility of reading books, telling stories, singing, taking outdoors, playing together, recognizing things with their caregivers, and other early stimulating activities in the past 3 days. In addition, proportion of having books among children with both-parent migration was only 0.63 times, and the risks of being violently disciplined and raised by a depressive caregiver were 1.49 and 1.71 times higher relative to non-left behind children. Conclusion Both-parental labor migration negatively affects early psychological and behavioral development of children, while father’s labor migration can be conducive to physical growth of children. Parental migration for work may influence early childhood development through altering the depressive state and parenting behaviors of the caregivers.
