Many think that people should not work after the age of 60 because it can cause some problems. I disagree with this statement because, if you stop working and let go of your daily life and routine, you will slowly start losing the will to live as you don’t have any motivation that keeps you waking up every morning. Also not working may cause boredom which leads to more serious mental problems such as depression. In the following paragraphs, we will take a deep dive into this topic and human nature.
Working is very important for us as it helps to keep ourselves busy, while also staying social. Without a doubt we can say that working keeps us alive . Thus, we should not prevent old people from working as long as working does not danger their life.
On the other hand, making old people work may seem not etiquette. As they may have hard time working and keeping up with it. Moreover, they may also get serious injuries while trying to keep up with the job. So we should not let every old person work.
In conclusion, working is very important for old people as this is the only thing that connects them to society. So preventing them from working cannot be a good decision. But we also have to note that, not every elder should be allowed to work as this can cause possible injuries or health problems. As long as we allow healthy old people to work while preventing old people with possible health problems from work and providing them other ways to stay active in society. We can find a solution.
