In the past few years, Sister Mei's family has undergone tremendous changes. Parents are old and have lost the ability to work, and because they areRuralAccountsThey do not have social security and pension protection. In order to solve the problem of living expenses, the expenses in the past few years have been shared equally by Sister Mei's three younger brothers. My father suffers from Alzheimer's disease, which is getting worse and worse, and he has completely lost the ability to recognize people and things. In order to take care of their parents, the three younger brothers took turns to serve at home for a month. This is a huge burden for the brothers, especially since they all have their own families and jobs to take care of.
of this familyEconomyThe situation is also not optimistic. The eldest brother grows a greenhouse, although he has a certain income, but the family expenses are very large, and there are grandchildren to take care of, and it is not easy to give his parents 20,000 yuan a year. The second brother was doing business in other places, far away from his parents' house, and in order to take care of his parents, he could only live in his parents' house for a month, and his own home could not go back. The third brother is busy at work, and he has to travel a long way home every morning and evening to take care of his parents, as well as his children and wife. This situation made the three younger brothers feel powerless.
Faced with all kinds of difficulties, the brothers discussed and decided to send their parents to a nursing home. It wasn't an easy decision because:RuralIt is generally believed that sending the elderly to a nursing home is a sign of unfilial piety. But when the situation forced them, the parents finally accepted the children's suggestions. They were admitted to a nursing home with better facilities, where their children visited every week, and their parents' lives were better protected. Despite this, the annual cost of 20,000 yuan is still a heavy burden that the three younger brothers cannot afford.
In this case, Sister Mei didn't know how to ask her brothers for money, and told me about the problem that bothered her.
The issue of pension has always beenSocialFocus on hot spots, especially in theRuralregion, the pension problem of the elderly is even more thorny. RuralMost of the elderly do not have a pension andPensionsThe guarantee is completely dependent on the support of children's pension.

As a member of an ordinary family, I am deeply aware of the importance and difficulties of providing for the elderly.
