Why do older people worry about their children? Analysis of the psychological dilemmas unique to families at the bottom of society
As some parents get older, they feel more worried and fearful than ever before, especially in families with lower social status. The older they get, the more worried parents are about their children's future, worried that their children will not be able to get out of the cycle of poverty and fail to fulfill their unfulfilled wishes.
This worry is not just due to material deprivation, but to the feeling of powerlessness in the face of an unfair life and different opportunities. Parents have great doubts about their children's future, and this emotion can have a profound impact on their thoughts and actions.
In this case, people's minds are very complex, full of love and hate. Why is this problem exacerbated in families of lower social status? Is it just because of different economic conditions?
1. The financial burden and expectations of the families at the bottom of the society.
In people with low social status, the blood and sweat of parents is the most basic color of their lives. They earn every child very hard, so they work from 9 to 5 in the morning every day, or work overtime for a long time, just to let their families live the simplest life.
Against this backdrop, parents' expectations for their children are like a beacon that will never be extinguished, hoping that their children can change their lives through learning, get rid of poverty, and achieve a future that is completely different from their parents.
However, the truth is always so cruel. Despite the hard work of parents and the savings, the education they have access to is still very limited compared to families above the middle level.
Such a huge gap in educational resources makes parents worried: can their children really rely on their own strength to turn their lives around? This anxiety is not only because of the current economic situation, but because of the helplessness and uncertainty about the future.
This yearning for the future and helplessness about reality have formed a complex emotion in the hearts of parents at the bottom of society. They want their children to be successful, but they also worry that their children will be disappointed.
Late at night, these worries weigh heavily in their hearts. They can't help but wonder what kind of contribution they can make to their children's future financially. This change is not only to adapt to the current situation, but also to look forward to the future.
2. Unequal distribution of educational resources and class differentiation.
In a country with such opportunities, there is a serious imbalance in the distribution of educational resources. High-quality schools, high-level teachers, and ample learning materials seem to be available only to the middle class and the middle class.
And those children from the lower strata of society, to get the same educational resources, is tantamount to climbing a mountain with no top in sight. They try their best, but they don't get these resources. This injustice is not just a material, but a huge class difference.
Parents are very anxious about this matter. They know that in today's society, only education can put children on the right path. However, on this path, it is so unfair that they feel extremely powerless.
They fear that because their children are born into the lower strata of society, they will not be treated equally and thus will not be able to attain a higher status in the world.
But it is precisely under this gap between the rich and the poor that many children from the lower strata of society have shown extraordinary adaptability. They know very well that if they want to change their lives against the sky, the only way is to keep fighting.
Although parents are worried, they are still trying to support their children's studies and give them the opportunity to get out of trouble and achieve their dreams. This spirit of perseverance is not only a test of the current situation, but also a kind of perseverance for the future.
3. The dilemma between family education and emotional communication.
Parents in the lower strata of society, due to the needs of life, are often busy with various tasks, and it is difficult for them to take time out to accompany their children and participate in their children's studies and growth.
The lack of parental guidance and emotional support for children as they grow up invisibly increases the challenges they face in life and school.
No one answers their doubts, no one cheers for their accomplishments, and they often feel lonely and depressed as they grow up.
However, many children from lower social backgrounds do not stop there. In the midst of hardship, they learn to be independent, to explore the world in their own way, to understand the world.
As parents, even if they can't stay with their children all the time, they will worry about their children's future. They use different methods to help their children, even a simple sentence of "come on" and "understand" will become their most precious spiritual property.
Children who grow up in such families will become more independent and more adaptable. They know very well that no matter what happens outside, they will ultimately have to rely on their own efforts and perseverance to determine their own destiny.
This resilience and independence, cultivated through the difficulties of family upbringing and emotional interaction, not only make them more self-motivated academically, but also lay a good foundation for them to cope with the trials of society in the future.
Conclusion: The worries and fears of parents in the lower strata of society for their children stem from the uncertainty of the future and their powerlessness to face reality. These emotions are caused by parents' financial pressure, uneven distribution of educational resources, family education, and emotional communication.
This debate is not just a phenomenon, but a reflection on social justice, educational equality, and the connections between families.
At the same time, it also calls on the whole society to care more about the plight of the lower classes, work together to break the class solidification, so that every child has the right to pursue their ideals, and every family has the confidence and confidence to meet the future.
