At present, the problem of aging in China is very serious, especially in rural areas, and the aging problem of many farmers is more prominent.
Because many elderly people in rural areas do not have retirement salaries like the elderly in urban areas, they will face more problems when they are old, that is, when they enter their old age.
When it comes to this issue, some people think that what farmers are most worried about in their later years is not food and clothing, but these four major problemsDo you think it makes sense?Let's take a look at it today.
As we all know, in the past, the traditional pension method in China was basically based on family-based pension, that is, after the parents were old, the children were responsible for the pension, and of course, the sons were basically used to provide for the elderly. This is also why in the past, it was often said that "raising children to prevent old age, having more children and more blessings", thinking that if you have more children, you will be guaranteed when you are old.
However, with the acceleration of urbanization and the large number of young people in rural areas who have gone out to work, many elderly people in rural areas are facing the problem of their children not being around and having no one to take care of them. And now young people are under more pressure, not only to raise children, but also to mortgage and car loans. Especially if some families are still only children, the pressure is naturally even greater.
Therefore, there are many farmers who are worried that they will not be able to take care of themselves after they are old and infirm, and may even need to stay in bed for a long time due to illness and other reasons. This concern not only affects their quality of life, but also places a heavy burden on their families and society.
As the old people in the countryside said, when the body is still strong and they can take care of themselves, they must earn as much money as possible and save some money, so as to have a guarantee when they are old. Even if you really can't take care of yourself, it won't add too much burden to your children.
In rural areas, the marriage of children is one of the top concerns of parents. After every parent has worked hard to raise their children, they can not expect their children to have much income, but at least their children can start a family and have a perfect family, so that their lives can be complete and their future lives can be rushed.
Especially for some more traditional parents, they also hope that their children can get married and have children as soon as possible, so that their tasks can be completed, otherwise they will be sorry for their ancestors.
However, due to the development of the times and the change of attitudes, many young people's concepts of marriage and family are also changing. They are paying more attention to personal freedom and career development, and their expectations for marriage and family are decreasing.
At the same time, there is a more important reason, that is, it is difficult to marry a wife in rural areas at present. Nowadays, in rural areas, older unmarried young people have a lot of them, and almost every village has them. Because of this, many rural parents worry that their children will not be able to start a family, and may die alone for various reasons.
Even in the rural areas, there is such a phenomenon, that is, some parents feel very shameless because their children have not started a family, and they seem to be inferior in the village.
As an aside, it is a critical period for the payment of NCMS in rural areas, and almost all the focus of the village cadres is to collect the NCMS from door to door, but many villagers are still unmoved.
In fact, one of the main reasons is because some villagers know that this is not very useful if it is a minor illness, but it is still useless if it is a major illness, because a serious illness not only costs a lot of money, but also may not be cured.
It has to be said that although the new agricultural cooperative system is much better in the countryside than in the past, many farmers are still facing the problem of difficult and expensive medical treatment. For the elderly in rural areas, what they are most worried about is that they will not be able to get timely and effective ** when they suffer from a major illness, and they may even give up ** due to economic reasons.
After all, as long as someone in the family suffers from a serious illness, it is easy to return to poverty overnight due to illness, and the most feared thing is that the money is spent, and the person does not receive effective treatment.
For the elderly, loneliness and loneliness are also what they fear the most. Don't look at the many elderly people in rural areas, they can also visit each other's doors in normal times, but now many farmers in rural areas are facing a common problem, that is, loneliness and lack of companionship.
For the elderly, the happiest life is that their children are always around, and their children and grandchildren are around. But now young people in rural areas are basically going out to work, and many children come back to live for a few days during the Spring Festival because they go out to work for a year, and then there is long-term loneliness and longing, which will also make the elderly feel lonely and helpless.
To sum up, the viewpoint that "the peasants in their later years are most worried about not food and clothing, but these four major problems" has a certain degree of reality and universality, and I also agree with this viewpoint. For the elderly in rural areas, food and clothing are not the most worrying now, and the four problems mentioned above are indeed the most worthy of attention.
In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to work together with the society to provide better living conditions and service guarantees for farmers, so that the elderly in rural areas can enjoy a happier and healthier life in their later years.
