<< review queue entry 51239 - submitted by 'goldyn_chyld' >> 多指负担很重，在家中挑大梁，家里有父母、儿女，需要照顾，简称上有老下有小。 Wp: The Sandwich generation is a generation of people who care for their aging parents while supporting their own children. 许多中国家庭都处于上有老下有小的阶段。 Many Chinese families are part of a sanwich generation. 与此同时，老龄人口的增加也意味着越来越多的中年人将要应对“上有老，下有小”的情况，承担照顾好一家老小的责任。 Meanwhile, the ageing population means an increasing number of middle-aged adults are caught between the responsibilities of raising their children and looking after their elderly parents. 我们的团队都是上海人，大多数人到中年，上有老下有小。 Everyone in our team is Shanghainese and most are middle-aged and married. - 其实，真正细想下来，人生最大的幸福就是上有老下有小的时候 |
