The number of elderly people in the world is increasing. What do you think are the positive and negative effects of this trend? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
The number of old people has increased steadily in recent years for many countries. Scientists have predicted that there would be fewer youth than old-ages in near future. This increasing has both negative and positive effects in one’s country. This essay is going to cite and discuss some of these effects.
Increasing the proportion of old persons has some positive effects in societies. They have a lot of experience in life and this can be applied for guidance of younger generation. For example, when youth are faced with problems, they seek advice from someone much elder than them. In addition, some professions like teaching, research and politics require extensive experience and the old-age pensioners in such countries can contribute to these occupations. Besides, elderly persons are the witness of history and they can reveal the past to younger people more than others.
On the contrary, in some communities, old-age persons are considered to be burden especially in undeveloped countries and those nations where people suffer from poverty. Most of elder persons in such areas don’t work. Likewise, with more elderly, the cost of nursing care increases. Moreover, there are not enough younger people to earn money and pay the taxes. Furthermore, after a certain period of time for working, old persons have right to receive retirement salary from their government. And all above-mentioned concerns add pressure to economic of each country.
Considering all the issues, though it has some negative results, it may seem older people can be helpful for every community. But if the number of them reaches to an extreme proportion, then it’s a bad sign for the new generation as well as the senior citizens.
