Should Older People Live with Their Adult Children?
One of the topics in our daily life is whether or not the older people should live with their adult children. My answer to the question is that it is better for them not to.
To begin with, adult children, like their parents, love indepen dence and freedom, but their parents may still take them as children. The situation will be worse when the adult children are married. If the relationship between the children and file parents is not harmonious, the sons or daughters of the parents will be in a difficult position. Secondly, people of different ages have different ways of life. If they live together, the old may feel that they are always disturbed and the young may feel that they are often restricted.
In short, if the parents and their adult children do not live together, both the old and the young can enjoy complete independence and freedom. Living separately does not mean separation of relations. The parents and their children can still often visit and help each other if they stay in the saine neighborhood.
我们日常生活中的一个主题是,老年人是否应该与他们的成年子女生活在一起。我对这个问题的回答是,对他们来说,没有。首先,成年的孩子,就像他们的父母,爱的独立和自由,但他们的父母仍然把他们当孩子。成年子女结婚情况会更糟。如果孩子和家长之间的关系不和谐,父母的子女会处于困境中。其次,不同年龄段的人有不同的生活方式。如果他们生活在一起,老年人可能会觉得他们总是不安,年轻人可能会觉得他们经常受到限制。
总之,如果父母和他们的成年子女不一起生活,老人和年轻人都可以享受完全的独立和自由。分开生活并不意味着分离。父母和他们的孩子仍然可以经常访问,如果他们在小区中互相帮助。
