This trend is rooted in severe reality, where in April 2024, the unemployment rate among young people aged 16-24 in China reached 15.8 percent, or every six people. For many young people, being a “full grandson” is not a failure, but a form of adaptation to economic and social situations.
In addition to assisting the elderly, these grandchildren claimed that they received personal maturity and thoughts.
One of them said: “We have only 30,000 days in life. Every day with grandparents is part of the reverse reference. Money can be sought later, but time disappears with them, cannot return. ”
Some even invited their grandparents to drink modern milk tea or eat in fashionable restaurants to live more colorful. Instead of being just a guardian, they act like friends.

“Not everyone has a grandparents with a sufficient amount of retirement to finance their grandchildren,” the network wrote.
“My grandfather is a farmer. His pension money is only 100 yuan per month. ”
