Xue Ling asked funnyly: "When I grow up, everyone likes to run outside, and everyone has his own job and circle of friends and colleagues.
Even if I give birth to a football team, I will still feel that it is less."
Everyone laughed.
Xue’s mother couldn’t help but remind her: “When I gave birth to an extra child, I was fined a lot of social support fees by the neighborhood committee.
The third and fourth children are from the same child, so our family can only count the birth of three children.
I was fined once when I gave birth to my second child, and then I was fined a lot of money when I gave birth to my third child.”
"it's okay no problem."
Liu Ying said with a smile: "It was said on TV that the country now encourages everyone to have more babies. The more the better!"
Xue Ling chuckled and explained: "No, it's just open to three children. There is no encouragement that the more the better."
In fact, most of the friends her age have one or two, and it is very rare to have four children like her.
"Why!"
Xue Zhilan interjected: "Don't talk about liberalizing three children, even if it is fully liberalized, young people today are not willing to have more children.
I have two sons, three grandchildren, and I may only have three great-grandchildren in the future, or even less.
Many young people like DINK, and some don’t even want to get married."
Dad Xue lowered his voice: "Fortunately, we guys all grew up in a big family, and we can live together as a family, otherwise we would have to worry about this."
"Don't say it!"
Xue Zhilan said: "Young people can only have two children at most, and never more."
Liu Ying said "Hey~~" and said: "The Yangyang couple said that one child is enough for them, and they also said that one child and two treasures are enough.
I am secretly worried! Fortunately, they are pregnant with twins. If there is only one twin, maybe they will only have one."
Xue Ling, however, was not too worried and explained: "When their child is born, we will help take care of it, and then we will ask a professional nanny to help and subsidize some milk powder money and daily necessities.
As long as young people don't feel too much pressure, they will have one or two more children.
Children who grow up in a large family will not subconsciously only want to have one child.
But we shouldn’t force it, after all, it’s young people’s own choice and it’s not good to interfere too much.”
"wrong!"
Xue's father quickly reminded his daughter: "You can't be too open-minded about this matter! Young people are greedy for comfort when they are young, but they will know how miserable it is when they are old.
The elders say that having more children means you will be blessed, and there is some truth to that.
If you have more children, when your parents get older, the responsibilities placed on their shoulders will naturally become smaller."
Xue Ling thought for a while and explained: "It's not that I want to be enlightened, it's that the times force us not to be enlightened.
Today's young people have a high degree of freedom and free thinking, and their pursuits are much more complicated than those of our time.
In addition, their generation pays more attention to themselves and does not think too much about responsibilities and how to prepare for the distant future. They are more free-spirited and pay more attention to their own self-feelings."
Modern science and technology is changing with each passing day, and information technology is extremely developed. The stronger people's independence is and the better their privacy is protected, the more young people will pay attention to themselves.
No matter how busy she was, she would try her best to spend time with her children. No matter how tired she was, she would not dare to stay away from her family for a long time.
Despite this, there is still a huge ideological generation gap between her and her children.
Even if she continues to study and tries to change and adjust with an open-minded attitude, the generation gap will only be narrowed, and the things that should be done will still be there.
"When they grow old, they will regret it."
Xue Zhilan echoed his cousin's point of view and said: "Most parents will think about their children. As long as they can take care of themselves, they will never trouble future generations.
But what I fear most is that sooner or later I will not be able to take care of it, and I will have to rely on my children.
How can people not get sick if they eat whole grains?
Once they fall ill, their children have to go to the hospital, earn money, and hire a family. How can it be easy? The elders always say that there is strength in numbers, and this is the truth.
If you have many children, if you have money, you can contribute, if you have the ability, contribute. After the responsibilities are shared, no matter how unfilial you are, you still have to fulfill your share of the responsibilities."
"Yes!"
Liu Ying couldn't help but nod: "Why do people want to raise children?
Isn’t it just to carry on the family line and to have descendants to rely on when you are old?”
Xue’s mother thought the same way, loudly: “When I was young, I was lazy and thought that having fewer children, less financial pressure, and living a good life would be enough.
When you get old and disabled in the future, all the pressure will be transferred to your children.
What will you do if you regret it?
Is it too late to be reborn?
It is said that the welfare of the elderly nowadays is good, but the most important problem still cannot be solved.
When you fall ill and have no money, who will find someone to take care of you?
Even if you go to a nursing home, you have to have money, right?"
"Mom, you forgot your headphones."
Xue Ling hurriedly took out the gadget from the old man's pocket, carefully inserted it into the old man's ears, adjusted it, and warned: "Remember to bring it with you when you get up, otherwise you will speak louder without realizing it."
Mother Xue said "oh oh" several times and laughed.
"No wonder you always feel that you spoke too quietly today! It turns out that you have forgotten it again! Look! This is the reason why we must raise children, right?
When you can't cook on your own, at least someone will remind you and help you."
Everyone laughed.
Xue’s father said sincerely: “Sometimes I can’t help but wonder if the free and willful ideas that today’s young people always advocate are too wrong.
You said that we humans originally live in groups. If we don’t live with others and have to rely on ourselves for everything, we will definitely not be able to survive.
Even if it does work, it's no better than a savage or an animal in the wild. It's not human at all.
If you can’t get rid of material things, how can you talk about spiritual freedom, right?”
"Um..." Xue Zhilan chuckled: "That's right, that's not right either.
Brother Wu, I feel this question is more like a philosophical question."
Father Xue laughed and stopped.
"It's too difficult. We are not young people anyway, so we definitely can't figure it out.
They don't understand us either, and vice versa.
Let’s stop talking and continue playing chess.”
Liu Ying turned her head and warned again: "Ling Ling, you still have to let your children have one or two more, at least two for each child.
We are both men and women, regardless of gender, we must have two or three children."
