Analysis of a “New China” and the United States role in the World:-6

The third thing mentioned was the healthcare and moral support provided by the families. It is really a non issue that you are going to abandon your elderly relatives (especially your parents) in a nursing home to rot (no offense). In China people take pride in taking care of their parents as they have been taken care of when they were little. Although I can understand that the health care in China is not that great and the culture is also different but when you take care of your parents, it is a really win-win situation.

I know that it is an independent spirit of the American People to become independent as soon as they are 18. But in this economy it has become a rude wakeup call for some of them to come back to where they started. The win-win situation that I am discussing above refers to the fact that the Grandparents can take care of the kids while the parents work and it reduces the cost of Child Care. Because to be frank, nobody can take care of your babies as your own parents or relatives. You are there for each other and it increases the family cohesiveness and it also fosters savings. Frankly I know that it will never work in the United States but I have seen and read stories regarding how this economy is forcing many people to come back to their parent’s houses for financial and moral support. This kind of support can really reduce the cost of managing healthcare and less reliance on senior homes and hospice care facilities.
