Old people in rural areas generally have no pension, and the rural household pension that the state is committed to ensuring the lives of the elderly in rural areas is very limited, often only enough for young people to eat for one day. Therefore, in the final analysis, rural elderly people will be extremely dependent on their children in their later years if they don't buy pensions from some insurance companies or have no retirement wages.

Children themselves have the obligation and responsibility to support the elderly, so the problem of providing for the elderly in rural areas seems to be a social crux. The expenses of the rural elderly themselves are relatively small. For the current wage income level, this should not be an expense that is difficult to supply for a long time.

However, the reality is that most rural elderly people can get very little subsidy from their children every month. Some people even give 100 yuan symbolically every month, no matter what the old people live on. As a child in the countryside, there are many such old people around me. In the morning, they go to the market to sell vegetables. They get up early and get greedy, and the money for selling vegetables may be less than ten yuan. But for them, they are also satisfied. Ten dollars, rice and vegetables at home, may help them live for a few days. Although it is not a common phenomenon that this kind of old people are inactive in their later years, it does exist and is not a case.

Ten dollars for a few days, I think the problems of old-age care and medical care may become the two biggest sorrows of society.

? Hard life, poverty and loneliness in old age, just living. Isn't this an irony of life? I have never enjoyed much of my life's hard work and efforts, but I fell into the poverty line because of my age and lack of self-reliance in my later years.

The indifference of children and the lack of social support are the reasons that make many rural elderly face the pressure of survival. So I don't think there are many ways to think about how to support the elderly in rural areas. Now the law has paid more and more attention to the management of supporting the elderly. Only by legally ensuring that the elderly can get enough economic and spiritual support from their children can the state increase its financial support for the elderly in rural areas.

And do a good job of putting funds in place, and don't let these money enrich themselves for some corrupt officials. Only in this way can we better solve the problem of providing for the aged in rural areas.
