How do you feel about the "empty nest" phenomenon in rural areas?

The short film "What is Peiqi" was a big hit earlier this year. It aroused people's concern about the empty nesters.

The emergence of the phenomenon of empty nesters is not that long ago, before the 1970s and 1980s, subject to a variety of conditions, people's living areas are more fixed. From the beginning of reform and opening up, the increase in employment opportunities outside, population mobility began to gradually produce empty nesters and left-behind children, and in recent years with the accelerated process of urbanization, this situation has intensified. Many young people have moved into the city with their families, while at the same time some elderly people are difficult to leave their hometowns and remain in their old homes, and in many villages, such families can be found everywhere.

On the one hand, this is because some traditional concepts are y rooted in the countryside, where spare time is more monotonous and there is a lack of spiritual sustenance. Compared to the rural areas, the urban elderly thinking concept is more progressive, accept more new things in life, the choice of later life is also more, many of the elderly in the city have their own full life, but not willing to live with their children, their own separate life is very good, naturally, it does not matter the concept of empty nest.

In addition to the rural elderly thinking conservative, knowledge structure is relatively single, due to their own cultural level of limitations, can not arrange for their own old age, can only spiritually support most of the children are placed on the body.
