The old couple are opposed to traveling after retirement. How can they get their children's consent?

The specific situation needs to be treated differently, but also combined with the physical condition and economic income of the old couple. There is no right or wrong.

Traveling two or three times a year is too much for people over 60. That kind of travel around the world, except for the high-income groups with particularly good health, is a bit too extravagant for the elderly in most ordinary families.

At present, it is reasonable to choose representative tourist attractions and stagger the tourist peak season mode, which is 1~2 times a year. It may be suitable for the retirement life of most families. As far as we know, except during the epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19, most popular tourist attractions are crowded all year round.

For tourists, the above-mentioned state undoubtedly greatly reduces the quality of tourism and makes them feel guilty about spending money. Moreover, many cities have similar scenic spots and few features. Take our own family as an example. We old couple are not interested in traveling because they used to travel all over the country. If you want to go out and enjoy the natural scenery, you will usually choose local parks and rarely travel abroad. The nearby city attractions, because they have all been there, are not interested in revisiting old dreams.

Although our children have never talked about traveling, we know very well that they don't want us to travel often. Nowadays, young people are under great economic pressure and spend a lot on mortgage and children's education. They need financial support from their parents, which cannot be confused with "gnawing at the old".

If we put ourselves in their shoes, the old couple will definitely spend a lot of money on sightseeing. Nowadays, high-income children are a minority after all. Especially the third generation of support, children's early education, school district housing and so on; The expenditure in this area is an astronomical figure.

In most cases, it is reasonable for children to object to their parents becoming tourists; We can't kidnap the younger generation morally. Moreover, today's young people live a fast pace, and the third generation of children not only need a lot of economic expenses, but also need grandparents and grandparents to drive to and from school.

This is a practical problem, not an ethical one. Of course, there are also a few families, both financially and through the third generation support. So where do the old couple like to go? It is natural to go there.

However, tourism is an extremely tiring activity, and as the elderly, we should do what we can. Children are also worried that their parents will encounter all kinds of deception and misleading consumption during their travels, which are unavoidable practical problems.
