Grandparents or how to be parents again.
My parents generation deserves a Medal of Honor or something like that. They were born twenty years after the end of a civil war and they grew up dealing with the issues generated by it. Because of the family situation they started to work being children. They got married because get married was the opportunity to keep the money they earn (until they got married they gave all their salary to their parents). They wanted a different life for their children and gave to us everything they never had. They are retired now and they could do everything they want (traveling around the world o simply don't doing anything) , instead of this they have to keep with their grandchildren while their children go to work. They are parents again, but they are sixty-seven years old.

*It sounds most natural to say, "they had to start working when they were kids" (children is fairly formal)
"opportunity" sounds odd here, I would say "Getting married was the only way to keep the money they earned"
Also remember that in English, we capitalize our titles. Cien años de soledad= One Hundred Years of Solitude
