On the other hand, young couples fail to spend time and money on their old parents. I think such trend is quite abnormal and distressing. Busy as people are

39、ve the problem. However, the pessimists always complain and only see the bad effects. Their pessimist attitudes have no help to solve the problem and only make things worse.
