The world knows that women generally get pregnant. For thousands of years, this has been an indisputable fact and there is nothing wrong with it. Of course, there are women who will not get pregnant, and that must be a physical or psychological problem. In rural areas, they are often criticized. It was inevitable and common to run around and seek medical advice.
I was born in the countryside and accepted Confucianism from an early age. Although my cultivation is not deep, it is really difficult to establish my own new theory while criticizing the view that there are three unfilial and no offspring is the greatest.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, as a newcomer to the times, family planning is a major policy. Equality between men and women is no longer seen as a fallacy. Boys and girls alike, are the apple of their eyes, are the darling of their parents, are successors.
In an age of accelerated population aging, the future generations, our only children, the wealth created by two people will feed three or four generations. I wish my parents health and longevity, but also for my children and grandchildren.
I don't think I have much knowledge, nor do I know any great principles, but I always feel that one child is a bit few, and two may be better.
My feeling comes from a living example in reality. I have a friend, just a few years after work, both parents have cancer, admitted to two hospitals, although the two hospitals in the same city, but he is also busy. Day and night between two hospitals, a week later, a young man in his twenties, almost all white hair. The mother on the sickbed felt sorry for her son, so she secretly hired a car to return to her hometown in the countryside and refused to go to the hospital again. Colleagues who went to visit felt sad when they came back and talked to each other for a long time. To this day, the recollection of his circumstances sooner or later always makes me worry.
With the rapid development of economy, the era of male superiority and female inferiority has passed. It has become a common understanding among some young people that many boys in a family are cumbersome. Thinking carefully, it is hard to say wrong and right.
But now, the Dink family is quietly rising, some people call it fashionable, envy to follow, there is a strange theory. In the face of new things, I have to admit that old-fashioned thinking, out of date. Disagree, disagree.
I am surprised to hear that there are still people shouting for homosexuals, but I still have no reason to object, because I am not gay, I do not feel deeply about it, and I cannot comment. Of course, if he did, I'm sure he had his reasons.
In my spare time, I read the news about extending working hours on the Internet and dealing with the aging population. When chatting with people, some people joked that my grandson graduated and couldn't find a job. It happened that my grandfather, who was about to retire, had to extend his work for five years. Grandson drove his parents to buy a car, send grandpa to work, watching grandpa hobbled into the office, find a good parking space, carrying grandpa's birdcage, to the park to walk birds.
Years later, my young nephew still hasn't found a job, watching him worry at home, I also worry.
I don't know when I realized I was a sentimental man.
