Nibbling old age is a familiar term that refers to the phenomenon of young people who have reached adulthood and have the ability to earn a living, but stay at home and do not work, relying only on their parents to provide for them. This phenomenon has been widely criticized and condemned by society, and is considered to be a manifestation of unfilial piety, lack of work, and irresponsibility. However, with the development and change of society, a new type of gnawing is quietly emerging, which is more hidden, more common and more serious than the traditional gnawing of the old. This is the so-called "new type of gnawing old".

What is the new type of gnawing old? What are its features? Why did it appear? What are the consequences? These questions deserve our in-depth thinking and **. Is the new gnawing of the old the incompetence of young people or the doting of parents?

The new type of gnawing the old, as the name suggests, is an emerging phenomenon that is different from the traditional gnawing of the old. Its main feature is that young people appear to have worked and lived independently on the surface, but in reality they are still dependent on their parents' financial support, and may even ask for more from their parents in some ways. This phenomenon is often more difficult for parents to detect because it is hidden in the daily life.

There are many ways to gnaw on the old in a new way, such as:

Living in a parent's house or a house bought by the parents, not paying rent or paying only a small amount of rent, occupying the parents' living space and resources; Eat at your parents' house or in the food your parents buy, pay no or only a small amount of food, and enjoy your parents' cooking and care; Use your parents' money to buy clothes, cosmetics, electronic products and other consumer goods, and enjoy your parents' generosity and indulgence.

Use your parents' money for travel, entertainment, making friends, etc., not moderating or over-indulge, and enjoying your parents' support and understanding; Let parents help take care of children, do housework, etc., do not share or shirk responsibilities, and enjoy the labor and sacrifice of parents; Borrow money, ask for money, give rewards, etc., and do not repay the money or default on the payment, and enjoy the trust and tolerance of the parents.

These ways seem to be small things, but in fact, young people are consuming their parents' economy and energy, without giving their parents the rewards and respect they deserve. In these ways, young people are evading their responsibilities and obligations, rather than trying to improve their abilities and qualities.

The emergence of a new type of gnawing on the old is a complex social phenomenon with many reasons and influences. We can analyze it from the following aspects:

Socio-economic aspects

With the development and change of society, young people are facing increasing employment pressure and living costs, especially in first-tier cities, where housing prices, prices, and education costs are prohibitively high. However, the income level and job stability of young people have not improved commensurately, and many young people have difficulty achieving full economic independence, and can only rely on subsidies or loans from their parents to make ends meet.

At the same time, social competition and changes also make young people feel uneasy and confused, many young people lack clear career planning and development goals, are unwilling or afraid to try and innovate, just want to live a comfortable and comfortable life, and this life often needs the support and protection of parents.

2. Family education

With the implementation of the family planning policy, China's family structure has changed, and many families have only one child, and this child has become the pearl of the parents' palms, and the parents' love and expectations for their children are getting higher and higher. In order to give their children a good future, many parents do not hesitate to spend a lot of time and money to provide their children with the best education and living conditions, and even do everything so that their children do not have to worry about anything.

Although the starting point of this kind of education is good, it cultivates children's dependence and inertia, makes children lack the ability to think independently and solve problems, and also lacks gratitude and respect for their parents, thus forming a new psychological foundation for gnawing at the elderly.

Personal psychological aspects

With the development of the Internet and **, young people's values and consumption outlook have also changed, many young people are affected by various information on the Internet, have higher requirements and expectations for their own lives, and want to pursue a high-quality and high-level life, such as living in a big house, driving a good car, wearing famous brands, eating food, traveling and vacationing, etc.

However, this kind of life often does not match their actual income and ability, and they are unwilling to work hard and save money, so they can only satisfy their vanity and pleasure by asking or borrowing from their parents, thus forming a new type of behavioral motivation to gnaw at the elderly.

The new behavioral motivation of gnawing at the elderly is actually a manifestation of psychological imbalance, which is a deviation in the perception and evaluation of self-worth by young people. They do not base their success and happiness on their actual abilities and contributions, but on external material and image criteria. They are not satisfied with their status quo, but envy and imitate various "Internet celebrities" and "big Vs" on the Internet, and want to have the kind of luxurious and flashy life they show.

They are not willing to pay the effort and price for their ideals and goals, but want to achieve their desires and needs through shortcuts and dependence. They do not respect and appreciate the dedication and sacrifice of their parents, but treat their parents as their "ATM" and "nanny", taking and using them at will.

The new type of gnawing on the elderly is an unhealthy, unreasonable and unsustainable phenomenon, which not only harms the personal development and growth of young people, but also harms the interests and feelings of parents, and affects the harmony and progress of society. We should squarely face up to and reflect on the causes and harms of this phenomenon, and adopt effective measures and methods to correct and curb the spread and spread of this phenomenon by starting from the socio-economic, family education, and personal psychological aspects.

We should cultivate the sense and ability of independence in young people, so that they can learn to be self-reliant, self-reliant, and not dependent on their parents' financial and spiritual needs. We should guide young people's values and consumption outlook, so that they can establish the right standards of success and happiness, and not blindly pursue material things and images, but pay attention to inner quality and cultivation.

We should educate young people about a sense of responsibility and gratitude, so that they can respect and appreciate their parents' nurturing and support, and not abuse and waste their parents' resources and feelings, but repay and honor their parents' kindness.
