你的想法太主观了。我不是说应该抛弃老人，我担心的是“心有余而力不足”。如果我们不重视人口老龄化的现象，当老人越来越多，能够承担社会大部分责任的年轻人却越来越少，社会供养矛盾越来越突出，是不利于整个社会的发展的。

Your opinion is too subjective. I'm not saying we should toss the old people out. What I'm worried about is a situation where ''the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak." If we don't take the aging of the population seriously, when there are more and more old people, and as the number of young people who can assume most of the responsibility for society is getting increasingly smaller, conflicts about parental support will become even more pronounced. It's not good for the development of the entire society.

Let me take you back to your dorm.” “No. Dai Wei, don't leave me!” She turned around and fell into my arms. How did she know my name?! In a moment I was completely at a loss. She slowly raised her head. At such a close distance I would finally be able to get a good look at her face. However, once she looked up, I saw it. It was hair! It was all that single braid!
