【正确答案】Should the older people live with their adult children? People have different views. Some insist parents should live with adult children, claiming that it's the children's responsibility to take good care of their aging parents. There is some truth in the argument. But lots of troubles may arise. So I don't think it's good practice that parents live with their children. My reasons are as follows:
Firstly, the old people like a quiet, peaceful and regular life whereas the young prefer various activities. If they live together, they may feel interfered with each other due to different lifestyles. Secondly, parents and their children may disagree on matters ranging from minor domestic things to national and international issues as generation gap exists, which may cause an unpleasant family life. Finally, adult children love independence and freedom, but their parents still take them as children and unintentionally interfere in their affairs. Conflicts may occur if the situation goes on.
From what has been discussed above, we may draw the conclusion that if the parents and their children do not live together, both can enjoy complete independence and freedom.
