    I'm one of her regular customers. Anah and her husband are managing a simple shop with an excellent service. Named after their first son, their shop "Toko Azka" sells vegetables, various kind of tempeh and tofu, and other cooking needs. They also offer ready-to-eat dishes at very low price (below US$1).
    Anah has been working hard since teenager and now at her heavily pregnancy, she's still working so hard. Luckily, she has a supportive husband who work as hard as Anah. I realize, both of them, as well as a lot of us here, wanna break the poverty chain and give a better future for the next generation.
    I'm so proud to know them and being their regular customers. May God bless them and their entire family.
    Regards,
    C1/31

    I was raised by late father and one thing he strictly taught me and my siblings were we can't become a burden for our children. Parents must have savings enough for their old age and don't become a burden for your children, he said. He even had eight Chinese character at his house which roughly translates as "If you don't have savings, your old days will be miserable"
    He did quite well. Never ask for money from his children. Even if we gave him, he'd take it and then shove it back to his grandchildren. Miss you dad...

      I wish my dad thinks like your dad. I suffer a lot of anxiety and stress that one day I need to help to my parents clear their debts and help them financially. So I live frugal as I can and safe as much as I can so I have the money in case they don’t have money.
      Part of me I’m very angry about this. I see friends live their happy life and reach milestones (marriage, baby, do fun things). While I’m stuck and live in constant anxiety..

    This is becoming a global problem, young people are far more educated and skilled at a young age compared to previous generations yet earning far less and competing for less jobs in the market, yet burdened with drastically higher costs of living like taking care of a family. The solution is to delay or not have children altogether. Let's see how scared governments, billionaires, and technocrats become over their precious economies, once global population really declines because of their greed.

    Sandwich generation is not a new thing. Older generation experienced the same thing, they just didn't have the term yet. I remember the burden my father had as the eldest son in his family, having to pay monthly utility bills of his parents' household (which included his younger brothers who had better income than him), and my father was the poorest of all the siblings. He paid until he retired and it was my time to take care of the family. I refused to pay my grandparents' household utilities. I was only willing to pay for the expenses of my parents household and my siblings' education. My uncles were furious at first but couldn't say anything. They didn't realise what a burden they were all this time, until they were hit by those utility bills.

      in some households, unlucky parents have no choice but to give all they have for their children's needs and education but have no money left for their retirement savings because of the high cost of living.
      but parents gave everything they had to raise the children, working 9 to 5 for 35 years for their children's needs and education until the children are graduated from university and able to work and earn money themselves, and you mean the children then can throw away their parents just like that? maybe you can, but I can't. it's called PAYBACK. if the children are happy to see their parents die in old age with no money and no one cares for them... then go for it. you will get a lot more savings for sure

    In Indonesia, Sandwich generations mostly coming from middle - lower class family. Where you are as sister/brother is eligible to funding the whole family. Because their parents mindset is child = investment. It's like trap if you are out then your family starve, if you keep going then it's difficult to have financial freedom. That's why in my opinion if you have choice of your own life is one privileges as well because many people don't have choice. Is either keep working or dying.

    My poor Indonesian parents had sacrificed a lot to send me and my siblings to universities. Whether or not they asked for financial support, I would always gladly give it to them. Admittedly, this has affected my lack of desire to get married. I'd rather have myself and my parents stay happy by flying solo than adding more financial burdens by having my own family & kids (not that my parents want me to stay single)

I don't earn much but every month I send money to my parents. As for kids I don't want them as I can't afford them. I rather just support my parents, save money for my future. I have lived in poverty for 30 years, and all i want now is just some peaceful mind and financial stability.

      Raising children and provide education is parent responsibility. As a children I agree to reward our parent sacrifice before but it must not beyond our capability. In Islam also not make compulsory to give money regularly to our parent. We just help in within our capability (Ikhlas) . To show care to family is not about money only but maybe can help other way such as time spending, cleaning their home etc. Challenge face by generation is different.

    It is the same here in Thailand. In rural areas, selling agricultural yields is usually insufficient to cover their annual living expenses, so the parent generation heavily relies on the money sent by the working generation from the city. This, together with the high cost of living when compared to their incomes, caused the working class to avoid having children. The low birth rate is one of the major socioeconomic problems in Thailand nowadays.

They left their hometown and tried their luck in other cities to get better luck to help their parents.

    in Indonesia there's an old phrase : banyak anak banyak rezeki ( more children more prosperity ) and many older generation still believe in that phrase, while current generation start to think the opposite of it, because the economic situation is just bad to have child without proper planning, and many trapped financialy because of having child too early while they still have to provide for the family, being mid-class is suffering in this country

    This is for those who judge children who (seemingly) neglect their elderly while those elderly doesn’t realize that these children must support their own family. Often these elderly are so entitled to all the help they “should” be receiving from their children. However, still,,in these cultures they side eye and judge these children really hard when they fail to do so (support their elderly and extended family).

It was hard, but I made it well. No social security in Indonesia is a serious social issue, so parents have to count on their children when they get old; most people must retire from their career at age 55, how would they support their family if they are not working. My parents passed away and I moved to the US, now I am still supporting my sister and her daughter. Indonesia needs to work on their social security system so life can be easier.

    There's a strong adage that's still circulating in community saying that the more children the more prosperous you are because every child is born carrying their own fate. It's kind of misleading if you're born into a family in poverty chain. Children were deemed a productive assets that will give a significant economic return to their parent. The more means the more income will be made since asian's kids won't dare to be incompliance because they owe live to their parent. They carry this moral debt to the rest of their lives. This kind of feeling makes children oblige to repay the whole cost of their living and carry heavy burden to alleviate their economic status. This functional relationship is not genuine but toxic for the child's well being. It's like a capitalist exploiting the assets.

    This is so related for me.
    We (me & my wife) are sandwich generations.
    We still have both of our parents and we already have two kids.
    Since only me have a job (wife choose to do housewife), we have to manage our finance.
    Of course I send money to my parents and my parents-in-law every month.
    They are old (60s) so they didn't work anymore.
    Even one time I have to support my little sister financially when she was in college.
    So, it's common for us when we up until now, don't have any house.

  • @jlebrated
    @jlebrated 7 месяцев назад +1

    This is a common occurence in Indonesia and the answer is spelt out in Anna’s testimony. Indonesia’s sandwich generation is not only sandwich by parents and children, but also relatives/siblings. Most of the indonesian locals, once they find a relative / siblings to rely on will live like a parasite in their kampong and just hope for handouts. They wont bother to stay in 1 job because they know their sister/wife/husband/in laws will feed them. This is a hard truth that locals need to face to break this sandwich generation.
    And the only cure is education from at HOME. Yes you read it right not moral education in school because it doesnt work. Moral education starts at home where children emulate their parents. If their parents teach them to be a responsible adult where they alone are responsible for their situation, then they will become matured individuals who will work to support themselves. Unfortunately a lot of Indonesian homes are broken, where only a single parent (usually mom) is raising the kids alone. They need to work and thus has no time to attend to their kids and unknowingly raising another generation of irresponsible adults who tend to shun higher education and opt for gig jobs which provide little job security.

    mental health is never looked out upon in Indonesia and theres the mentality over indonesian less educated families about getting more kids means getting more sustenance or rich, which is wrong. All they did is burdening their future children without financial backup for later. Education and a well adjusted mindset is the key, but still with factors such as lack of financial support, hinderance from traditional culture and up till nation wide economics and influence, poverty will still go on

      If you only gave them money once in a while, it’s not sandwich generation. You have the luxury of not giving away your money in a bad month. The true sandwich generation always have to give away their money because if they don’t give their parents their money every month, their parents will suffer. I also gave some money to my mother every month but I don’t think I’m a sandwich generation since she can live without my money, she is richer that me. The reason I gave her money is just to show that I appreciate and love her.
