In some countries having children is considered a way of "investing in the future", and young people are expected to give money to their parents when they get a job, and then to care for them when they retire. What are the good points and what are the bad points about this system?

I think all people should care for or provide care for their parents when they get older.

Well, the investment part is terrible! My parents never asked me for money when i started working and never accepted it when i tried to give. After their retirement, i think we have the moral aspect of helping them in whatever they need but... remembering we have a life of our own! We can't quit our jobs to stay and take care of them! I think each people knows what to do and what they want to do!

yes, i accept that perspective. Because your children is your mine.
