2. Encourage the elderly to go out for a walk. The social participation of the elderly is gradually decreasing, which makes them feel that they are not valued. In order to maintain "dignity", they are used to emphasizing the correctness of their words and deeds. Therefore, children should encourage the elderly to go out for a walk, help their parents to establish a social circle, get to know other elderly people in the community, make friends for their parents and help them expand their life circle.
3. Encourage the elderly to change their cognition. Old people accept little new things and are influenced by traditional culture of respecting the elderly. They think that old people should be authoritative in their bones. The old man's stubbornness is closely related to his ideological understanding. If he wants to overcome it, he needs to go out of the house and integrate into society. If he is in poor health, he should also keep in touch with his neighbors and friends. He also has to read books and newspapers and learn new things constantly, so as to change his understanding and adapt his subjective views to the changing environment.
4. Meet the daily needs of the elderly. When people get old, especially after retirement, the dependence, self-esteem and support needs of the elderly are universal. They hope to get more warmth, care and intimacy at home, especially hope that their children can often talk to them about their families; They ask their children to be filial and respectful, consult with them more when things happen, and solicit and adopt their opinions; With the growth of old people's age and the decline of their physical strength, the old people hope that their children can help them complete housework, medical care and other tasks that they are difficult to accomplish independently.
