Abstract With the occurrence of the second demographic transition and the modern change of intimate relationships, staying single is regarded as a positive and independent life choice by many young people. However, under the influence of familism culture, the original family is the main source of pressure faced by single young people in our country, and there is tension between the single young people and the original families. In the absence of external solution channels, family-oriented negotiation strategies such as equal communication, understanding of children and becoming parents play an important role in promoting parents to gradually accept and recognize their children's single choice, and helping single young people to achieve reconciliation with their families of origin. In the process of mutual game and negotiation between individual young people and their families of origin, the resilience of intergenerational practice gradually forms. The resilience of intergenerational practice between single young people and their families of origin shows the existence and influence of family community, which indicates that Chinese modernization change does not have the characteristics of Western individualism deinstitutionalization. The value identification and self-experience of intimate emotion have become important forces to meet individual demands and realize family integration, which not only shows the practicability and flexibility of familism culture outside the established institutional ethical norms, but also reflects the recent trend of changes in Chinese family intimate relations. Although the intergenerational practice of family intimacy reveals the particularity of Chinese familism culture, it also implies the universality of intimate emotional identity in the era of global individualization, showing the harmonious coexistence of individuals and families in the process of Chinese modernization.
