【weekly topic 】The collapse of the traditional way of life
|
||
|
What is the traditional way of life? I think it is the living of brothers in the same family or nearby, babysitting of children by grand parents, and the surport of the senior persons by sons. This has been the tradition of we Chinese in many places for many, many years. The base of such a life is farming. In old times, farming is the base of a society, and an absolutely majority of persons are engaged in farming. So, they do not need to move during their life, they live near their parents, when they go to work in fields, their parents can take care of their children. When their parents are old, they can help their parent for eating, washing, and for medical things. However, China is experiencing a rapid development in economy, more and more people are working in towns and cities. The careers in non-farming section are completely different from that of a farmer. Sons of the same parents may work in different cities, and they also may move from one city to another. At present, some coupples have more than one child, so they often have to travel between different cities to look after children of different child. It is also becoming more and more difficult for siblings to gather. At the same time, our siblings are not as important as those in old times. The most intimate person to one prrson may be his or her university classmate nowdays, who may have spent more time with this person than his or her siblings. It is a rare experience for a person spend several months with his or her parents nowdays, but in old days, people spend the whole life with his or her parents until their parents pass away. Bai Jiaxuan talked with his mother Baizhaoshi every evening before going to bed in the novel Bailuyuan, this may will never happen in China again. So, at present, both the husband and the wife have to go to work to earn money, but the way of baby-caring is mainly still a traditional one, tha is, in most cases, babies are still looked after by grand parents. So, when one old couple have more than one child, they will have to spend more time on traveling to look after different grand children. Do you miss the old days?

I do miss the old days. Close relationship with parents and siblings does count. Mum and dad build up a family and bring us to this world, so I suppose siblings should be closer than classmates or friends. But in fact it is not. What a pity! We trust someone else but not from your family. I miss the old days playing with my brother. It was a great fun. We used to care each other, but not now. He spends most of his time with his business parters or someone who could bring forture to him. He just turened to be a stranger to me since then. |
