We Should Balance Our Love

 

   Nowadays it is common to see that many parents focus their attention on their children, but leave their own parents without proper care. The most typical example is the phenomenon of empty nest seniors. This problem has aroused the public concern and has become the hot topic of many discussions.

 

   Paying little attention to older parents can have serious consequences. First, the elderly often feel lonely and depressed if there is no child with whom they can talk, and this can have a bad effect on their mental health. Second, the aged parents with no children by their sides can have a lot of trouble in their daily life due to disease or old age.

 

   In my opinion, we should take the following measures. Children should be encouraged to live with or near their old parents, which is very helpful for them to know their parents, concern and attend their daily life. And it is also necessary for them to create chances to communicate with their aged parents. Besides, our govemmeiit should strive to establish the service system for the elderly and expand its social insurance coverage among them.

 

我們應該平衡我們的愛

 

   如今，許多家長把注意力集中在孩子身上，而沒有適當的照顧自己的父母，這是很常見的。最典型的例子就是空巢老人的現象。這個問題已經引起了公眾的關注，并成為許多討論的熱門話題。

 

   很少關注年長的父母會產生嚴重的后果。首先，如果沒有與他們交談的孩子，老年人常常感到孤獨和沮喪，這會對他們的心理健康產生不良影響。第二，沒有子女的年邁父母，由于疾病或年老，在日常生活中會有很多麻煩。

 

   在我看來，我們應該采取以下措施。應該鼓勵孩子和年邁的父母一起生活，這有助于他們認識父母，關心他們，關注他們的日常生活。他們也有必要創造機會與年邁的父母交流。此外，我們的govemmeiit應該努力建立老年服務體系，擴大社會保險覆蓋其中。
