In the past month,period harassment(ใใซใใฉในใกใณใ) continues to be a topic of discussion on the Japanese Internet and on TV shows.
so-called“Period Harassment”refers to the opinions of Japanese young people when using instant messaging software.DotHave a negative impression and feel that sentences with periods are cold and emotionless. Once you receive a message with a period, you may even think that the other person is angry with you. However, because middle-aged and elderly people prefer to add periods at the end of sentences, a serious communication gap has formed between generations!
Fuji TV’s morning information program“Mezamashi TV”When I was investigating this topic recently, I discovered that in addition to periods, there are two other things that have a huge gap…
The generational gap in using LINE is not only reflected in the “period”…

However, middle-aged and elderly people are very accustomed to switching to“Red Exclamation Mark”This pattern makes young people quite disgusted!
When typing an exclamation mark, Japanese young people will not convert it into a red exclamation mark pattern.

In addition to paying rent and daily expenses, many office workers also have to pay “filial piety fees” to their elders. But should they pay filial piety fees? It has always been one of the topics discussed on the Internet. A few days ago, a woman posted an article revealing that she usually paid filial piety allowance to her family. She had recently been promoted and had a salary increase. Unexpectedly, after her parents learned about it, they immediately asked for the filial piety allowance to be increased to 20,000 yuan. She was also responsible for daily purchases and water and electricity bills. The high expenses made it almost impossible for her to save money. She collapsed and said, “Are you treating me like an ATM?”
The original PO posted a post on Dcard to share that her original salary was more than 40,000 yuan, and she would give her family 10,000 yuan in filial piety allowance every month. She would also help her parents subsidize credit card fees, utility bills, daily purchases, gas money, etc. Recently, she She was finally promoted and her salary was raised to NT$50,000. Unexpectedly, after her parents learned about it, they actually asked her to increase her monthly filial piety allowance to NT$20,000. She was quite dumbfounded and said helplessly, “I really don’t know what I am doing.” How do you save money like this?”
The original PO also revealed that her mother suddenly resigned a while ago, and the two parents had no plans for retirement, which made her very worried because the amount of capital required from her was getting larger and larger. In November alone, she had given nearly 40,000 yuan. The amount was beyond what she could afford, and her parents even said, “I will have to rely on her and her brother to help with mortgage and car loans in the future.” In addition, the original PO’s brother had an unstable job and basically had to rely on the original PO, which also made her feel stressed. , sighing, “Do my parents treat me like a cash machine?”
In addition, the original PO also gradually discovered that every time her parents asked her for money, she was very troubled, but she did not want to argue with her parents, so she had to ask other netizens for their opinions, “My parents really have some plans for their future retirement.” Donโt you have any? Or do you have to rely on your children? Please share with me, how much filial piety allowance is appropriate per month?โ
In response to this, many netizens left messages suggesting that “filial piety expenses should be paid according to one’s ability”, “don’t confess to your parents about promotions and salary increases”, “I have a feeling that only you will be able to pay for the car loan and house loan in the future, and then the last name will be my brother’s.” “I advise you to toughen up”, “Reporting worries but not good news, saying that work has not gone well recently, the project is not profitable, and the company may have to lay off employees”, “You can try not to pay filial piety fees at all. You think it is difficult now, but after trying See if there is anything wrong.” “If your parents have jobs or a house in your name, there will be no legal problems if you don’t pay child support.”

Controversy Over ‘Grandchild Care Fees’ in China: Elder Sues Couple for Insufficient Payment
Elders and children need 830,000 “grandchild care fees.” (Image/Pexels)
In some families, because both husband and wife are working, if the child does not want to be taken care of by a nanny, the elders in the family will usually take care of the child. However, a case recently occurred in mainland China. An elder sued the couple, claiming that the couple had given them too little money and demanded 190,000 yuan (approximately NT$830,000) in “grandchild care expenses.” The court recently made a ruling.
According to “The Paper” report, according to the judgment of the Guang’an District People’s Court, the wife Hu Nu and her husband Zhu Nan had been working in Chengdu from the end of 2016 to July this year. Because they were too busy at work and had no time to take care of their children, they left their children to be taken care of by their grandmother.
Hu said that the couple would give her mother 1,000 yuan (approximately NT$4,400) for living expenses every month, and another 2,000 yuan (approximately NT$8,800) for raising children, so she thought her mother wanted too much and was only willing to give it every year. 10,000 RMB (approximately NT$44,000), a total of 50,000 RMB (approximately NT$220,000).
The judge believed that the couple had the obligation to take care of the children, and they also had jobs to support the children. However, the couple had not fulfilled their obligations for several years. Therefore, the woman surnamed Duan’s request for raising a grandchild was reasonable, but the amount of 830,000 yuan was too high, and the couple was ordered to pay 82,000 yuan. (Approximately NT$360,000). Afterwards, both parties promised not to appeal. Zhu Nan said that the reason why his mother-in-law wanted to bring grandson Fei was because he and his wife had a dispute and wanted to divorce, so she wanted to use this to sue him.
Family and Family Law Firm stated that according to mainland law, it is not a legal obligation for the elderly to help take care of their children. It is only their obligation to support their children. Whether they can be required to take care of their grandchildren depends on whether there is a written contract between the two parties. However, in reality, elders will not take the initiative to sign an agreement with their children, and children should also be aware of this. Although the elderly can enjoy family affection by raising children, they also sacrifice money, energy, and even health, so children should usually Offer to give money.
