We Should Balance Our Love

   Nowadays it is common to see that many parents focus their attention on their children, but leave their own parents without proper care. The most typical example is the phenomenon of empty nest seniors. This problem has aroused the public concern and has become the hot topic of many discussions.

   Paying little attention to older parents can have serious consequences. First, the elderly often feel lonely and depressed if there is no child with whom they can talk, and this can have a bad effect on their mental health. Second, the aged parents with no children by their sides can have a lot of trouble in their daily life due to disease or old age.

   In my opinion, we should take the following measures. Children should be encouraged to live with or near their old parents, which is very helpful for them to know their parents, concern and attend their daily life. And it is also necessary for them to create chances to communicate with their aged parents. Besides, our govemmeiit should strive to establish the service system for the elderly and expand its social insurance coverage among them.

我們應(yīng)該平衡我們的愛(ài)

   如今，許多家長(zhǎng)把注意力集中在孩子身上，而沒(méi)有適當(dāng)?shù)恼疹欁约旱母改�，這是很常見(jiàn)的。最典型的例子就是空巢老人的現(xiàn)象。這個(gè)問(wèn)題已經(jīng)引起了公眾的關(guān)注，并成為許多討論的熱門話題。

   很少關(guān)注年長(zhǎng)的父母會(huì)產(chǎn)生嚴(yán)重的后果。首先，如果沒(méi)有與他們交談的孩子，老年人常常感到孤獨(dú)和沮喪，這會(huì)對(duì)他們的心理健康產(chǎn)生不良影響。第二，沒(méi)有子女的年邁父母，由于疾病或年老，在日常生活中會(huì)有很多麻煩。

   在我看來(lái)，我們應(yīng)該采取以下措施。應(yīng)該鼓勵(lì)孩子和年邁的父母一起生活，這有助于他們認(rèn)識(shí)父母，關(guān)心他們，關(guān)注他們的日常生活。他們也有必要?jiǎng)?chuàng)造機(jī)會(huì)與年邁的父母交流。此外，我們的govemmeiit應(yīng)該努力建立老年服務(wù)體系，擴(kuò)大社會(huì)保險(xiǎn)覆蓋其中。
