Let goThree childrenAfter the policy, the attitude of many elderly people has changed, from actively supporting to being silent or even not active. This change has led people to wonder why the elderly have changed so muchWhy are they no longer willing to support fertility as they did before?Through observation and analysis, I summarized the following reasons: the physical fitness of the elderlyEconomyStrength and ideological changes. These factors make the elderly in the faceThree childrenAt the time of the policy, attitudes towards childbearing changed dramatically. These three aspects will be described and elaborated in detail below.
When Xiao Zhou gave birth to her first child, her mother-in-law was passionate about helping to take care of the child, and there was almost nothing for Xiao Zhou and his wife to worry about. The mother-in-law is solely responsible for all aspects of the child's affairs, including feeding, changing diapers, bathing, and more. However, by the time Xiao Zhou gave birth to her second child, her mother-in-law's physical fitness had already declined. Although she is still active in helping with the child's upbringing, she seems to be a little weak in terms of action and childcare. At this time, the mother-in-law knew that her health was not as good as before, and her aging limited her physical strength, energy and health, and she was no longer able to help Xiaozhou and his wife take care of their children. The physical condition of older people declines with age, which means that they can no longer take on the responsibility of parenting children.
In addition, the mental condition of the elderly is also one of the factors influencing their active support for childbearing. As they age, older people have a loss of attention, memory, and concentration, which makes it more difficult for them to take care of their children. At the same time, the elderly also need to spend more time and energy to maintain their health, such as:MedicalHealth care, maintenance of the body, etc. This makes it impossible for the elderly to fully support the child's upbringing as much as they used to.
When my mother-in-law gave birth to her first child in Xiaozhou, she paid for all the expenses of the child, including food, clothing, housing, transportation, and educationMedicaland so on, but also to be able to provide some additional for the small continentEconomyIn the tank. However, when Xiaozhou gave birth to her second child, her mother-in-law's main income** was her retirement pension, so she couldn't provide as much as beforeEconomyIn the tank. In addition, the elderlyEconomySpending also increases with age, such as:MedicalHealth careRetirementexpenses and other expenses. Due toEconomyThe burden increases, and the elderly cannot afford to have three childrenEconomyExpenditures.
The mother-in-law showed a positive attitude of supporting fertility when she gave birth to her first and second children on Xiaozhou, but when she heard itThree childrenWhen the policy is open, it is silent and inactive. This is because the mother-in-law's attitude towards fertility has changed. As she grew older, her mother-in-law became more concerned about her freedom and individualitylifeQuality. She realizes that she is entering her old age and hopes to have more time to realize her dreams and enjoymentlifeof the good. As a result, she is no longer willing to be bound by her children and grandchildren as she was in the past, and chooses to give up the support she gives to her children to take care of them.
Faced with her mother-in-law's silence and inactive attitude, the couple was confused and did not know whether to have a third child. Modern young people are thinking about whether or not to have a babyThree childrentimes, usually from the individualEconomyStrength, time, energy and physical fitness are considered. First of all, personalEconomyStrength is very important, because the current educational philosophy focuses on intensive cultivation, and raising children needs to be strongEconomyFoundation. Secondly, personal time and energy are also important factors in raising children, because children need the companionship and correctness of their parentsHomeschooling。Finally, the physical fitness of the individual is also a factor to consider, especially the advanced agePregnant womenIt is more likely to be at risk of gestation, which needs to be carefully considered.
To sum up, the concept of the elderly is in the faceThree childrenThe policy has changed, not because they don't like children, but because of the physical fitness of the elderlyEconomyChanges in strength and ideology. Young parents need to consider their personal needs when considering whether or not to have a third childEconomyFactors such as strength, time, energy, and physical fitness. Only after having the conditions and strength can we actively respond to the call of the country and give birthThree childrento bring more happiness and joy to the family.
