Perhaps in the past, many of our old people still insisted on relying on their children or nursing homes for the elderly, but with the gradual development of society, more and more of our old people feel that these two methods are not "perfect".
Nowadays, this "trendy way of providing for the aged" is on fire. Old people neither go to nursing homes nor drag their children down. This way of providing for the aged is "providing for the aged in rural areas".
65-year-old uncle Wang
Uncle Wang is 65 years old this year. He used to be a teacher in a middle school. After retirement, he has been thinking about his future pension. He has a pair of children, but they are busy with their own affairs every day and have no time to accompany and take care of them.
Some of my former colleagues and friends went to the nursing home, but Uncle Wang was used to it. He doesn't want to get old and be bound by others. This was suddenly remembered by Uncle Wang. When he was young, he used to be a substitute teacher in a rural area, and the beautiful scenery and flowers in the countryside reappeared in front of him.
A week later, he and his wife returned to the countryside. Uncle Wang rented a family, an old house and a piece of land that had not been used for many years. When they packed up, the old couple really started their own "rural pension" life.
Besides growing vegetables for their own consumption, they also planted some fruit trees and raised some chickens and ducks. Even the abandoned fish pond was put into fry by the old couple. This seemingly ordinary farm life, in the eyes of Wang and Lao, is simply a "fairy-like" paradise.
Since living here, the mental state and color of the old couple, Uncle Wang, are getting better and better day by day, which is more because they eat what they grow, drink mountain spring water, have proper labor exercise and have a suitable rural living environment.
Uncle Wang's way of "providing for the aged in rural areas" is also known to more and more retired people. After visiting Uncle Wang's current life style of providing for the aged, many old people showed great interest in this way of providing for the aged in rural areas and wanted to really participate in it.
After all, how many old people can resist this "temptation" when they return to the quiet and distant pastoral life, and they don't yearn for it or pursue it?
Although the "rural pension" model is good, it also has its own drawbacks and difficulties.
The biggest advantage of "providing for the aged in the countryside" is that the countryside is beautiful, with flowers and birds singing, beautiful scenery and pleasant air. It is especially suitable for the elderly to live a life of providing for the aged. Moreover, the elderly can grow vegetables and raise chickens by themselves when their physical conditions permit, which not only exercises their bodies, but also realizes the happiness of labor. Most importantly, a quiet and comfortable rural life can also make the elderly feel more comfortable.
Of course, although the way of "rural pension" is good, it will have its own drawbacks and difficulties more often, which should not be underestimated.
1. The traffic is inconvenient
Although we say that the transportation facilities in rural areas have been greatly changed and improved, when it rains, snows and snows, the roads in rural areas are generally muddy and difficult to walk, that is, they will still exist, and it is difficult for a person to walk, let alone vehicles.
When people are old, they will always encounter some unexpected situations, especially when they suddenly get sick and need to be sent to a big hospital for treatment. But if the road is blocked, or the road is difficult to walk, the illness of the elderly will be delayed, and the consequences will be difficult to estimate and imagine.
2. Physical health problems
Since our old people choose to go to the countryside to support the elderly, we need them to "eat, wear, live and travel" and so on, and we will do it ourselves in the future. In most cases, it is difficult for the elderly to blindly get help or assistance from others, because in the present countryside, most of them are elderly people, while most of the young people have gone out to work, so everyone needs help.
In this case, if our old people are in poor health or even sick, then our old people are not suitable to go to the countryside to support the elderly. After all, you have no ability to live independently. What should you do if no one takes care of you at that time and you can't take care of yourself?
Step 3 adapt to life
There is nothing wrong with the beautiful scenery and pleasant scenery in the countryside, but there are more mosquitoes and flies in the corresponding countryside, so it is easy to be bitten by mosquitoes in summer, and the weather is very cold in winter. More often, everyone can only stay in their own homes and can't go anywhere. This is a sincere portrayal and common phenomenon of our rural life in many times.
However, we old people have lived in the city for a long time after all. They have already adapted to the colorful life in the city, and their relatives, friends and children are all in the city. But now they suddenly came to a strange place and had to start their lives again, perhaps temporarily. But if they want to live on this for a long time, it is estimated that few old people can always adapt to the present life.
Small and micro conclusions:
To sum up, the way of "rural pension" is of course good, but more often, it also has its own limitations and shortcomings. To put it bluntly, it is mixed. Therefore, it is unrealistic for our elderly people to really find a pension suitable for all of us.
However, the way of providing for the aged is no longer so simple. There are many ways of providing for the aged, such as community support, group support and home support. Therefore, our elderly people must really find a suitable way of providing for the aged according to their actual situation and needs.
Therefore, no matter what kind of pension, as long as it can really solve the current pension problem, it is the best pension, so what do you think?
