Why is the taste of Chinese New Year getting weaker and weaker now?

1. Parents let their children take their boyfriends (girlfriends) home for the New Year. It is understandable that parents want their children to get married as soon as possible when they are older. The problem is that many parents will ask their children's emotional problems and even give them "tasks" when they must bring their boyfriends home for the New Year. This makes it difficult for some young people who cannot find true love. Emotional problems can't be found just by looking. Now more and more young people are pursuing celibacy, and this problem will become more and more difficult in the future.

The second is to compare with each other and lose the taste of lucky money.

? The original intention of lucky money is that the elders care and spoil the younger generation. In the era of material underdevelopment, lucky money is not even money. Giving children some candy can make them smile. By age is "by special". This can ward off evil spirits and drive away special things, and wish children peace and happiness in the new year. Later, the economic level of our country became higher and higher, the people's living standards also improved, and the lucky money also rose. When I was a child, I went to visit relatives during the Spring Festival. The happiest time is to play games and do all kinds of tricks with relatives' brothers and sisters. A box of firecrackers can be fun, and all the small animals can hide when they see us.

The most painful time is the lucky money link. The adults pulled me aside, took out money and stuffed it into all my pockets where I could put things. My parents don't push or block, and the two groups of people come and go for more than ten minutes, regardless of the outcome. I was caught in the middle and looked puzzled: Are you finished? I have to play!

Nowadays, more and more lucky money is given to children in the New Year, and thousands of lucky money are received during the holidays. This money can't be given away for nothing. Although this kind of human relationship is not said, it is still a good account. One to two, my heart is tired, and the lucky money has long lost its warmth and gratitude, and it has evolved into a wind of comparing and showing off wealth, which can be described as a bad habit.

Married young couples must go to one of their parents' home for the Spring Festival. Theoretically speaking, husband and wife are integrated after marriage and should go anywhere together, which is also the theoretical basis for husband and wife to go to one parent's home for the New Year. Although there is nothing wrong with the truth, from the heart, is the wife or husband really willing to go to the parents-in-law or parents-in-law for the New Year?

Living habits are different since childhood, and the two sides are not related by blood. Can you really be happy living together during the holidays? This problem cannot be generalized. Some people really have a good relationship with their parents-in-law or parents-in-law, and they are very happy to spend the New Year together. But there are also some families whose relationships are not harmonious. For a so-called custom, going to each other's home for the New Year can only embarrass both sides. In this regard, I personally think that this issue should respect each other's wishes. There is no need to go to one parent's house for the New Year. Go if you want, or go if you don't want.
