What do you think about the proportion of elderly people is increasing.
In many countries, the proportion of elderly people is increasing. Do you think the positive effects of this trend outweigh its negative influence on society?
Currently,many countries particular in Europe are facing the problem of aging society.Such phenomenon brings us a lot of concern ranging from natioanl development to social problem,in this case,i think the advantages are surpass the disadvantages.
What does it bring for us,definetely,there still have positive effacts.Elderly people have more spare time than adults which is to say they can probobally devote themselves in the place where really need help,such as being a volunteer or participating in charity.Elderly people as an important part in public affairs cannot be neglect.
However,overnumbered old people can be regard as heavy pressure in a country,in terms of industy development.More and more people are retire when they are 60 even younger,as a result of it,many factories are suffer from lacking of labor work force.Worse,the price of work force keeps rsing because of aging society,which happend in China during these years.
In addition, huge investment in medical care and insurnce are closely associated with olderly people.More attention should be focus on this group,instead of education or unemployment problems.We have to acknowlege that not only old people require improve thire well-being, but other parts cannot be ignored.
For a family,more olderly people and lesser yongersters is hard tobespport by their own payments.For instance, in a general family with 4 old parents,2 young parents and a child constantly depend on two jobs'payment for thire living fees.That is one of the resons why many people still living in poverty.
Overall,the old people tend to need more care from our famliy and country.though increasing old people do lead to some social problems, they deserve to be respected and cared.

Aging can be seen not as a problem but part of the solution. Older people have knowledge, experience and usualy have more wisdon.

If we are young and we think in this way, suiciding before we get older, is the easier solution, isn't it?
