After retirement, I realized that there would be many problems in providing for the aged only in families with sons but no daughters.

　　There is a saying in China that "raising children to prevent old age", and it is also said that daughters are parents' little cotton-padded jackets. In the last century, many families had one child because of family planning. In modern times, there have been many problems of providing for the aged. There are not many sons and daughters who have the ability to take care of their parents and their families. My neighbor, Uncle Wang, is facing such problems.

　　When Uncle Wang just gave birth to a son, he wanted a daughter, so he gave birth to another child regardless of family planning. As a result, the child was still a boy, but at that time, Uncle Wang and his wife both had serious jobs, so they didn't have to worry about raising the child, but although the child was able to raise it, they didn't have the money to buy a house and only built a bungalow in the village.

　　Fortunately, in those days, there were not many bride price gifts, and the eldest son was attracted by a girl, and they got married without much money. The second son was eloquent, and soon he got a girl to marry him. The two daughters-in-law were all right, and they were very family-oriented after marriage, but the two sons were dishonest.

　　Shortly after the eldest son got married, he met a noble man, and his position in their group kept rising. Because of his power, he got involved with the relatives of the boss when his wife was still pregnant. Soon, he got pregnant with the relatives of the boss. With this umbrella, he climbed higher, but his wife heard that there was someone outside him and made trouble with him every day. As a result, he directly said to his wife, get out of here if you can't pass.

　　Although divorced, the wife still lives in her husband's house, and the eldest son doesn't give his daughter-in-law any support at all. Because he hasn't worked for more than ten years and his wife can't find a suitable one to go out, he can only live on the retirement money of Uncle Wang and his wife. The eldest son's position has dropped again and again because of corruption at work, and now he is in jeopardy.

　　The youngest son also gave birth to a son after marriage. He had no ambition, and he knew how to make love every day. Later, he lost money because of gambling and was chased home by his creditors. He stabbed his creditors with a knife and was finally caught in prison. After sitting for several years, I was released, and now I still idle away every day and have nothing serious to do.

　　Now three grandchildren have grown up, and the eldest grandson is 25 years old, and he is about to marry a daughter-in-law. However, none of the two sons have made a success, and he has not bought a suite for his three grandchildren. Seeing this situation, Uncle Wang lives in a sigh every day. Whenever he sees other people's daughters buying clothes and shoes for his parents, he is even more miserable. He always tells others what sins he has made and now suffers from such crimes.

　　I think there will be many problems in providing for the elderly without daughters. First of all, if you meet an unfilial son, the elderly will even have a problem in life, and no one will take care of them. Moreover, if the son listens to his wife, the life of the elderly will be even worse. If a daughter-in-law encounters an illness and pain, it is impossible for her daughter-in-law to try her best to take care of it, but a daughter is different. The parents they will take care of are meticulous, and with a daughter, many psychological words of the old man can also be told to them. When she is in a bad mood, her daughter will also give guidance, but it is impossible for her son to do so.
