Family members and friends caring for elderly people find it hard to spend enough time looking after them. What are the causes of this problem? What solutions can you suggest?

Determining the reason for insufficient

time

to take care of the older generation and its solution is an ongoing debate. A close examination will clearly demonstrate the reason for the phenomenon and a method to solve it.

First

of all, one reason for the situation is that physical distance between families has increased due to intensive urban development.

For example

, in Korea, almost all education and job opportunities are concentrated in the capital

city

.

Thus

, young students and employees are moving to the

city

to find better options. In that case, seniors of the family stay in the suburbs or country while their kids leave the area.

Therefore

, young people feel that it is hard to spend

time

in order to meet older people because they should spend much

time

visiting family due to the broad distance between different areas.

However

, there is a feasible solution for the problem.

That is

a balanced development plan by the government.

For instance

, the nation can stop people from moving to the centralised

city

by developing other alternative regions that have various work and study opportunities. If that happens, future students and workers do not have to be relocated from families and homes, because they can get the chance in a closer region than the previously developed

city

.

Consequently

, young generations may get more

time

to care for seniors. To sum up, nowadays youths do not have adequate

time

to spend with their seniors because the distance between them is broadened. As a consequence, the nation can enhance accessibility by forming alternative developed cities.
