After 2024, a unique trend of thought will gradually emerge among the elderly, and its spread will become more and more widespread. As the years go by, people gradually gain insight into some truths, especially after the death of one of the spouses, many older people choose to redefine their lives in a unique way.
With the rapid development of society, people's hearts have become more and more complex, and the elderly have seen through many things. Even if you live a prosperous life and have a happy relationship between husband and wife, you can't escape the fate of life, especially in recent years, the influence of the social environment has made more elderly people begin to prefer a series of unique life choices, and many people have begun to plan accordingly. Among them, the last option in particular has turned our perception upside down.
So why is it that more and more older people are thinking this way? Dig deeper, and maybe we'll find some answers.
First of all, the elderly gradually become rational and know how not to disturb the lives of their children. They see clearly the difficulties of getting along with their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and for the sake of the tranquility of their later life, more and more elderly people choose to live separately from their children. The lifestyle and eating habits of modern young people are very different from those of older people, and living together can be uncomfortable for older people, so it is more comfortable to choose to live separately, after all, it is important to maintain a happy and healthy mood in old age.
Secondly, when the wife passes away and cannot take care of himself, the elderly are more willing to hire a temporary nanny to solve their life problems and save money at the same time. The advantage of a temporary worker is that they can leave as soon as they finish their work, avoiding the sense of supervision that comes with day after day and the tension that comes with being around multiple people. This option makes life easier for seniors.
Third, older people are generally reluctant to choose to live in nursing homes. No matter how good the conditions in the nursing home are, seniors feel that they cannot see their loved ones there, and once they are occupied, it becomes difficult to return home. Children who want to visit also need to make an appointment in advance, which is quite inconvenient. I heard that the service quality of some nursing homes is not good, and even beatings have occurred, and some people describe nursing homes as "bird cages", which also deepens the rejection of nursing homes by the elderly.
Fourth, older people are beginning to realize that finding a partner to live with is not a wise choice. Although older people need companionship when they feel lonely, they are more rational and realize that maintaining a partnership is not an easy task in later life. Even if you have a new partner, you will be bound by family affection, which can lead to conflicts in terms of finances and interests. Children may also be suspicious of their parents' remarriage, and if they are provoked, the issue of providing for the elderly will become more complicated.
Fifth, modern older people are different from the past and are more willing to face life and death. They choose ** when faced with a minor illness and choose to give up ** when faced with a major illness. They do not want to prolong their lives through drugs and equipment, and they know that there will always be death in life, so they choose to reduce the burden on their children before they die.
Sixth, the elderly no longer seem to be afraid of death. Even though the doctor told them a series of restrictions on what they could not eat or drink, they still chose to go against the wind and enjoy what they wanted to eat. In response to the question, the elderly replied, "If I don't eat again, I may not be able to eat after a while." ”
Seventh, after the age of 100, the elderly prefer to spend the rest of their lives simply and freely. Freed from the need for pomp and circumstance, they wanted life to be simple. After death, there is no need for cumbersome rituals, and you can choose to scatter your ashes to the sea or the forest, freeing yourself from all the troubles of life. After all, it's tiring enough to be alive, and it doesn't have to go through the red tape after death, and it all seems meaningless.
These are a list of life choices that are becoming more and more popular among the elderly. Do you agree with these views? Or do you see it differently? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area and work together to ** this interesting and unique trend of thought for the elderly.
