Baby’s Baby?
According to the Chinese tradition, those who love their parents and forefathers must do on
It is reported that almost 90% of the young couples don’t take care of their babies on their own. Instead, they believe it’s their parents’ responsibility to do the hard work. As a result, 90% of the new-born babies are looked after by their grandparents, whether they are willing to or not.

The young couple is rarely ashamed of their shedding of responsibility. They have “good” reasons for this arrangement. First, they usually don’t have to force their parents to do so. Since most parents are doing so, why should their parents be an exception? Second, they have their jobs and are too busy to look after the baby, while their parents are retired and have enough time and energy to care for their grandchild. Finally, as they have never done any housework, they are sure that they can never take good care of the baby on their own.
But is it fair to the parents in this matter? Most of them are elderly people and some of them are of poor health and even sick in pain. Taking care of a baby , as everybody knows, is very hard work. In addition, grandparents are always very fond of the grandchild. As a result, the child can be easily spoiled. What’s more, the young couple may not be able to establish a close and intimate relationship with their own child, which they will regret in the future. Such examples are numerous.
Young couples, be responsible parents! You have to sacrifice your time, your energy, your leisure and even your job to do the greatest thing in your life. It’s well worth your efforts to bring up your own child who will love you and take care of you when you are old.
