He talked about the problem of old-age care for the elderly in rural areas, especially the dilemma faced by the elderly in rural areas under three different circumstances, as well as the current situation of old-age care for the elderly in rural areas. Do you know what other different pension problems exist for the elderly in rural areas? Let's find out!
Caring for the elderly in rural areas
Nowadays, China's population aging problem is becoming more and more serious, and the increase in the number of elderly people has also led to the importance of old-age security, and more pension institutions and medical security are needed to improve their quality of life and happiness.
Among them, the most important thing to pay attention to is the elderly in rural areas, these people who have quietly dedicated their lives, and now it is time for the society to give back to them.
However, the situation in reality is not satisfactory, and the elderly in rural areas need more care and companionship, and we need us to give them spiritual support and encouragement, so that they can have a more positive attitude towards life.
The elderly in rural areas are not a simple existence, they can be roughly divided into three categories, the first is the elderly who live in the city with their children, the second is the elderly who stay in the countryside, and the third is the elderly whose children have not yet started a family.
Whatever the case, the elderly in rural areas need our attention and help.
Three kinds of rural elders
The first category is those who live in the city with their children, who originally thought that their children could have a good development in the city and have a happy family, but the reality is often not satisfactory.
Housing prices in first-tier cities have discouraged many people, many working families are still living in a house of a few tens of square meters, and their children may also encounter difficulties in work.
As a result, they have to take care of the children brought by their children, which makes it even more difficult for them to spend their old age in peace.
In addition, when they get older, all aspects of their physical functions will decline, and many things are really difficult to do.
The second group is the elderly who stay in rural areas, and with the development of China's economy and the acceleration of urbanization, many young people have gone out to work or start businesses.
Although the family's income will increase relatively in this way, the elderly who stay at home will have a lot less care and companionship.
Some of them don't even see their children for a month, and the old age when they originally hoped to live a good life with their children has become a lonely life.
The third group is those who have one or two children by their side, but because the children have not yet started a family, they are not financially well-off.
I thought that I could enjoy my old age in the countryside in peace, but I was forced to continue farming because of my livelihood, which not only worked hard for myself, but also affected the development of my children.
In either case, it can be seen that China is currently serious about the problem of providing for the elderly in rural areas.
status quo
According to statistics, the number of elderly people over the age of 60 in China has reached 250 million, accounting for 18.1% of the total population.
Rural areas are also much worse than urban areas because of their relatively backward resources and environment.
Although China has been implementing the rural pension insurance system for a long time, due to the relatively backward economic level and uneven distribution, many areas are unable to pay full pensions.
Coupled with the general lack of pension service institutions in most rural areas, the elderly in rural areas are facing retirement problems and economic pressure.
For example, some measures such as advocating that the retirement system should be delayed after an aging society have also caused widespread discussion and controversy in large eastern countries.
The core problem is that most of China's rural areas are unable to guarantee the normal payment of pensions in full, and requiring the retirement age to be extended will only exacerbate the problem of unequal pension distribution.
And you must know that China, as a socialist country, also attaches great importance to the protection of people's livelihood and vulnerable groups in policy.
It was because of their hard work to earn money to raise their children and support their families that these rural elders now have the conditions for their children to live a good life in the city.
If you can't even afford to work all your life and earn money to raise your children, then does social fairness and justice still exist?
Sixty years old
In fact, the age of 60 is a difficult period for the elderly in rural areas, although they are retired, they need to take care of their grandchildren and children to live a good life.
In fact, it is better to look at these issues from a different angle, retirement does not mean that you will not work.
Both men and women can try to shine in their fields and create new horizons, and continue to spread positive energy in society.
In this way, you can also stay young, stay energetic, and have a positive and optimistic attitude towards life.
In addition, the whole society is in a period of rapid development, and there are also labor shortages in many industries.
Although the "forced labor" system has been eliminated in today's society, as long as you are willing to do it, with rich experience and technical accumulation, coupled with your own hard work, you can still find a job that you like, suit yourself, and can earn a reward.
In addition, you can also try to use your rich experience to help young people who are just starting out in the workplace and lack experience and skills.
For example, in the recent hit drama "Life Home", there is a grandfather image of Uncle Cheng Qian, who is strong, flexible, cheerful and optimistic, kind and enthusiastic, diligent and studious, understands technology, dares to take responsibility, is willing to contribute, and is careful and patient to help young people progress.
Uncle Cheng Qian perfectly interpreted how the excellent qualities and rich experience of many rural elderly people should play a role - take the initiative to integrate into the construction of the new era.
epilogue
The issue of old-age care for the elderly in rural areas is indeed a social issue that needs our attention, and the difficulties they face in life also need more attention and help. Everyone should actively participate in the action of caring for the elderly in rural areas, and let us work together to contribute to the quality of life of the elderly in rural areas!
