Chinanews, Shanghai, July 13 – According to a report by Shanghai Youth Daily, about 79.7% of kids aged¹ between 1 and 3 are taken care of at home, 53.3% of whom are looked after by their grandparents. However, a recent survey shows that 70% of Shanghainese are not satisfied with their parents helping² take care of kids for them.

Elders usually take care of their grandchildren according to their knowledge and experience, which is considered to be somewhat incompatible³ with the modern life.

In 42.8% of the families, parents take up most part of the work of taking care of kids, but only 15.4% of fathers contribute more than mothers. Some 2.3% of families depend on nurses to take care of their kids.

However, Shanghainese wish grandparents and other people who take care of kids should learn some new knowledge, as the situation is different now from the past.
