A: Hi, Yunhui. Have you watched the news in this morning'snewspapers?
B: Hi, Meiping, nice to see you. Yes, I have paid attentionto the news that the old were taken care of poorly in ablack-hearted nursing homes.
A: It sounds terrible. Old people have made a lot ofcontribution to our society, we should take good care of the old.
B: It is well known that many family has only one child now,so the young couples in the future will have four parents to lookafter. They carry a heavy burden.
A: Yes, they are too busy and have no time to care for theirparents, so some couples choose to send the aged parents to nursinghomes.
B: By the way, did you have an idea to send your parents tonursing homes when they are too old to look after themselveswell?
A: En, if I have no time to take care of them , I think it isa good idea to send my parents to nursing home.
B: Oh, really. I will never send my parents to those placesbecause the quality of their service is worrying. What’s more,maintaining parents is responsibility for their children, is a finetradition of Chinese.
A: But their children because of work and family reasons havenot much time to accompany with their parents ,rarely taking thefeelings of their parents into consideration. Therefore, they willbe easy to feel lonely .It will has a bad effect on quality of lifeand health of them. However , they can share their feeling togetherand have common topics to talk about with similar aged people inthe nursing homes so that they will not feel lonely.
B: But the majority of old people prefer to live at homeliving with their families at the bottom of their heart, they areafraid of lacking of affection in nursing home.
A: On the other hand, in the nursing home care can beprovided with professional which is much better than athome.
B: What worry me most is the level of nursing care for theold and its short safety devices in nursing home.
A:Nursing homes usually have work day and night staffs andbasic medical equipment, if a acute disease attack the old, we canfind save them on time.
B:Old people who go there just do not want to trouble theirchildren. To live together with the young people they can forgetthe aging and live a happy live.
A: Some old people love to live with the age peers, becausethey like to live in freedom, unwilling to be bound by their sonsand daughters.
B: Even if the old go to nursing homes, children should oftengo to see them and also bring them back home to live for a while sothat they will feel that we still keep thinking about them.
A: That ' s just what I want to say . There are always twosides to everything, but we should do our best to make our parentsfeel happy.
B:Oh ,the ring is ringing , I am afraid I have to go now. Seeyou next time.
A: See you.
