Passage Two
段落二
When people care for an elderly relative, they often do not use available community services such as adult daycare centers.
当人们照顾一个年老的亲人时，他们常常不使用有效的社区服务。例如成人日托中心。
If the caregivers are adult children, they are more likely to use such services, especially because they often have jobs and other responsibilities.
如果照顾者是成年子女，他们更喜欢用这种服务。因为他们经常要工作或有别的责任在身。
In contrast, a spouse, usually the wife, is much less likely to use support services or to put the dependent person in a nursing home.
相反，配偶，通常是妻子，不喜欢用这种服务或把需要照顾的人放在私人疗养院里。
Social workers discover that the wife normally tries to take care of her husband herself for as long as she can in order not to use up their life savings.
社会工作者发现妻子通常试着独自照顾他们的丈夫，尽可能不使用他们的积蓄。
Researchers have found that caring for the elderly can be a very positive experience.

被照顾的老人感激这种照料，并且关心他们所得到的。他们充满热情，积极合作。
However, even when care giving is satisfying, it is hard work.
然而，虽然照顾者是心满意足，但是这是一个艰难的工作。

One consideration is to ask parents what they want before they become sick or dependent. Perhaps they prefer going into a nursing home and can select one in advance.
一个照顾者应该询问他的父母在他们有病或者不能照顾自己之前想要什么。或许他们更喜欢去私人疗养院，并且能够提前选择。
On the other hand, they may want to live with their adult children.
另一方面，他们可能想和子女住在一起。
Caregivers must also learn to state their needs and opinions clearly and ask for help from others especially brothers and sisters.
