Because many elderly people are lonely, especially lonely and pitiful!
China's square dance, has gone to the world, can not say which year is popular, just know that a popular after the popularity of the country, the music is also repeatedly replaced, such as the previous Phoenix Legend, Little Apple, and then to the current network of songs, on the fashion, the square dance has not lost anyone.
With the popularity of square dance, the problem also came, a lot of the square is occupied by the grandparents, so that some young people want to go to play basketball, exercise a body are no place, and even the parking lot was occupied by the mothers, which triggered the conflict is more and more obvious. So why are the big moms so keen on square dancing, I think there are no more than the following reasons!
First: the elderly are very lonely!
Today's society, young people are under so much pressure that they have to use their off-duty time to engage in side business, there is no time for their own leisure time, and even their wives and children do not have time to accompany them, where they still care about their parents.
So the elderly tend to be all day long, don't know what to do, especially lonely. If both parties are alive and well, it's okay, but if there is only one person left, the loneliness is especially hard to bear. So the square dance time every night is a good way for them to pass the time and get rid of their loneliness!
Second: Older people are hard!
This situation is different from the previous one, these old people are helping their children to bring up their children, some of them are retired city dwellers, some of them are outsiders from rural areas. During the day, they have to be busy with household chores, laundry, cooking and bringing up children, and it's really not easy at the end of the day. It's not easy to make it to the evening, when the children are off work, so they can take care of the children, and they also have time to go dancing and relax!
Third: the elderly pay more attention to their health!
While the life expectancy in China has increased a lot now, the incidence of nausea and disease is increasing year by year, which is related to the current lifestyle. Excessive nutritional intake, sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise are all factors.
Particularly after the short video fire, we have not found that many older people also love to watch short videos, a look is a long time. But they also know the importance of exercise, so the square dance both let themselves get exercise, but also out of a few hours of cell phone time, two birds with one stone!
Fourth: the helplessness of the rural elderly!
This one is specifically for the rural elderly, because I am rural. In our town there is a square, every night the square is crowded with people, even 3 venues are people square dancing, and the vast majority of these people are elderly, even some men!
Because the countryside is very quiet at night, quiet terrible, and most of the young people have gone out to make a living, the village is only left with empty-nested old people, these old people are really too lonely, during the day a manor can not see a few people, and even find a chat with people can not be found. So in the evening, go to a square dance, activity, but also to find acquaintances to chat, talk, is not very good!
In the end: the elderly jumping square, both loneliness, but also exercise, but also can enrich the spiritual world. Everyone has the day of old age, I hope the old people can be healthy and live a long life!
