After retirement, the first batch of "Dink Couples" usually have more time, energy and economic resources to devote to personal hobbies, travel and leisure, self-improvement and living with their partners because they have no children to raise and take care of.
It is precisely because there is no tie between children and grandchildren that Mr. and Mrs. Dink can enjoy life comfortably. This kind of life is very comfortable and leisurely. If you want to practice calligraphy, you can start writing at once. If you like flowers, birds, insects and fish, you can take time to cultivate your hobbies. This kind of husband and wife have peace of mind and ease, and every day in their lives is equally wonderful. This shows that such couples are positive and optimistic.
In today's society, people's acceptance of Dink's ideas is gradually increasing. According to the data, people who accept this idea can be divided into three types. The first is the group with higher education. Nowadays, many young people who choose not to have children have a college degree or above. They are exposed to more new ideas and lifestyles, so they are more receptive to new things.
The challenges and difficulties faced by Dink families:
1. The problem of providing for the aged: Families without children may lack the traditional family support system to take care of their daily life after entering the old age. It is necessary to plan personal pension, medical insurance and long-term care insurance in advance to ensure that there is enough economic ability to meet the needs of life and medical care in old age.
2. Spiritual sustenance and emotional care: Without children as emotional continuity, some Dink families may worry about the lack of family companionship and social interaction in their later years, and need to find other ways to meet the needs of emotional communication and psychological comfort, such as cultivating social circles, participating in community activities or keeping pets.
3. Social concept pressure: In the traditional culture of China, carrying on the family line is regarded as an important social responsibility and family mission, so the Dink family is sometimes under the pressure of traditional concepts from family and society and does not understand.
4. Sense of loneliness and loss: Dink family members may have a strong sense of loneliness and loss when peers around them are immersed in enjoying family happiness, especially when they are on holidays or facing major life changes.
