Changes in the hearts of the elderly: from integration to independence

In the high-rise buildings of the city, 60-year-old Ren sat by the window, full of thoughts. Since the death of her wife, she faced life alone, until the invitation of her son and daughter-in-law broke the peace. She hopes to find the warmth of home in her new surroundings with anticipation.

However, life gives her an unexpected twist. The originally imagined three-bedroom apartment has become a crowded space with her grandchildren, and the arrival of her mother-in-law has disappointed her expectations. In this new home, she felt like an outsider, watching her son, daughter-in-law and mother-in-law laugh and laugh in the living room, but it was difficult for her to fit in.

She began to miss her old life, when she was lonely, but at least she had time and space for herself. And now, her efforts seem to be taken for granted, and her needs are not cared for. She began to wonder, was this really what she wanted?

At this moment, the daughter-in-law made a suggestion that made her even more chilled - pay living expenses. She was shocked that she had given so much for this family, and yet she still had to be treated as a burden. She looked at her son, hoping that he would say something for herself, but her son's silence completely disappointed her.

At this moment, the phone rang, and it was her daughter Zhang Qing calling. Hearing his daughter's voice, the loneliness and loss in Lao Ren's heart were instantly replaced by warmth. The daughter asked about her physical condition with concern and said that she would come to visit her. A warm current swelled in Lao Ren's heart, she knew that no matter where she was, her daughter would always be her most solid support.

After careful consideration, Lao Ren decided to leave this home that made her feel depressed. She understands that true happiness is not dependent on others, but about learning to be independent and self-reliant. She packed her bags and got ready to start a new life.

Let's work together to create a warm and comfortable living environment for the elderly, so that they can spend a happy old age.
