When many foreign people come to China, they will be very surprised by the phenomenon that old people take care of the children in the street. They wonder how why so many old people given birth to the children. Actually, these old people are grandparents, not parents. It is part of the Chinese culture.
許多外國人來中國時，他們會很驚訝地看到大街上都是老人在照看小孩，他們好奇爲什麼那麼多老人還生小孩。實際上，這些老人是爺爺奶奶，而不是父母。隔代帶孩子已成爲中國文化的一部分。

When Chinese people get retired, they are willing to take care of their grandchildren, because their sons and daughters don’t have much time. More young people believe that it is the old people’s duty to look after these kids, because they have nothing to do and spending more time with these kids can make them feel less lonely.
當中國人退休時，因爲他們的兒女比較忙，所以他們願意照顧他們的孫子。越來越多的年輕人認爲這是老人的責任去照顧這些孩子，因爲他們也沒別的事情做，而且跟這些孩子們在一起也可以讓他們不孤單。

But there is a big problem about the way to raise children. Most old people spoil children, and satisfy the children and give everything they want, so it is hard for the parents to educate their children, who will easy to cry if parents don’t satisfy them. Young parents should spend more time with their kids. What’s more, it is not the old generation’s responsibility to help them look after kids.
但是在撫養孩子的方式上有一個很大的問題。大多數老人溺愛孩子，爲了滿足孩子，他們想要的一切都給他們，所以父母就很難去教育他們的孩子。一旦父母不滿足他們的孩子，他們就會很容易哭。年輕父母應該多花店時間與他們的孩子在一起，而且，幫助他們照顧孩子也不是老人的義務。
