I am Aunt Wang, I am almost 60 years old this year and have been staying in the city to take care of my grandson. Recently, I have been suffering from back pain, so I hope my grandson can go to kindergarten every day so that my old bone can go back to my hometown and take care of my health.
Another reason is that there is an old man living in his hometown. Although he always reports good news but not bad news, I know that he is not very healthy recently and there is no one around him. I always worry about him.
He has also been to the city, but he couldn't adapt and I couldn't leave my grandson, so he had to go back alone. We also cheered ourselves up: wait a little longer, and when my grandson goes to kindergarten, I can go back to my hometown to take care of each other.
By then, my grandson’s grandmother will retire, so it should be fine to pick her up? It really doesn't work. When our health is better, I will come back to take over.
Thinking about these things, I also had hope and told the old man to find time to talk about this to his son and daughter-in-law and give them a vaccination in advance.
Unexpectedly, before I could tell me about this, my son and daughter-in-law told me a "happy event": they are going to have another second child! Although it is good to have multiple children, I can't be happy at this moment. This means that after the second grandson was born, I still have to work hard to go to kindergarten and separate from the old man for a few years.
Moreover, with my current situation, I really have to be overdrawn after less than a few years of health, and I will not be able to drag down my children in the future, and I will eventually suffer. Besides, I have been busy all my life, and I have never officially seen the flowers and plants outside!
I pondered for a while, and still said what I thought to them. Sure enough, the daughter-in-law had an objection. She said, "Other people are urging the elderly to have a second child. You are fine. We take the initiative to ask for it. You are not happy and don't want to take care of it."
I had to say to my son, "Either take a rest for a year or two, and when your father and I are well raised, do you want a second child?" "In another two years, your daughter-in-law will become an elderly mother!" He replied to me.
I was a little angry too. Why didn’t they consider the situation of the elderly? Finally, I said, "If I really have a second child next year, let my grandmother take care of the child. I will take over when I am well..."
"My brother just got married, and my mother is ready to take care of her grandson at any time. How can I have time to take care of her grandson?" Before I finished speaking, my daughter-in-law rushed to say it.
Everyone ended up in disagreement. I am old and after I brought my grandson to kindergarten, I want to go back to my hometown to take care of my health and stay with the old man. Is this wrong? Very selfish?
