W: Do you think families have changed much in the last 50 years?
M: I think families everywhere have changed a lot in the last five decades.
W: What do you think is the biggest change?
M: Well, in the past, three or four generations would live together under the same roof. Nowadays, relatives living in the same city have become rare.
W: That’s true. You know, some husbands and wives don’t even live in the same city any more.
M: Would you ever consider having your parents live with you when they get older?
W: I guess I’m a bit old-fashioned. I’d rather have my parents live with me than live in a retirement home.
M: That’s very respectable, but I could never live with my parents. I usually only see them at our Christmas celebration and that’s enough!
W: How about your other siblings? Do they spend a lot of time with your parents?
M: Two of my sisters still live at home, even though they have already graduated from university and had jobs. They enjoy spending their free time with my parents. I guess in that respect, I’m the black sheep of the family.
W: I see. Do your parents ever ask you to come home to visit them more often?
M: They’re always asking me to come home, but I think our relationship is better if we keep a distance from each other. Whenever we see each other, all we do is fight.
W: Well, you know what they say, “You can choose your friends, but not your family.”
