Taking care of mother


1. What is the main message of Group 2's podcast topic?
They are talking about the issue of taking care of our elderly mother and father. The two points is that they want to take care of their parents and the other is just send their parents to the nursing home.
2. Did their show provide solutions to the problem? What are they?
They only provide solutions to prevent the feeling of lonely. First, the elderly parents can exercise. Second, they can plan their life. Last, they can raise some pets to accomany with them.
3. Comment on the group's podcast.They show us the news in the beginning, it is a good way to catch our eyes. They had recite the draft very well. But the quality of the show is a little bit boring. Talkshow should relax and funny, but the whole show is too serious. I can't listen clearly of what they say, not only just for the steady tone makes me sleepy but also the way to pronounce words are hard to distinguish. I have to concentrate more to understand what they say. Many of them are pronoucing well, but the host and some of the guests are not fluently enough. When the backgound music stop, I can listen clearly. But as long as they played the music, their voice were covered by the backgound music. I don't like the speed and the tone, they lack of the enthusiasm. However, I agree with what they think, the new point of elderly to think that they can have more friends in nursing home.
3.5 If Group 2 is given the chance to do another presentation, what would you suggest members of Group 2 to do to make their presentation better?
I suggest they have to make their voice more enthusiastic and they can make their show just like the ordinary chat. Don't make their show so serious.
I think they can add some music or more news to make the show vivid, so that I no longer feel bored.
4. What do you think?
4.1 What do you think about taking care of your mother/father? Should a child/children shoulder this responsibility? State your opinion based on any of the following factors:
I will take care of my parents when they get old is base on the following facts:
1. it is too expensive to take care of old people
3. it's a child's duty
4. your parents should live with you when they are old
7. part of the Asian culture
The Asian culture values the gratitude to our parents very much, and I love my parents a lot, it make me think it is a must to take care of them and accompany with them. They raise me almost nearly 20 years, I should return the unconditional love to them. Taking care of them is not just my responsibility, I should make their life better than now. I know they spent their whole life to take care of me, I gratitute what they done for me, so I will make they happy when they old. I don't want to marry , and I love to accompany with my parents.
