My parents are over sixty years old. I often warn my parents: Don't let others help you up when you fall, but stand up by yourself. If you can't stand up, call your family or call 120. Why? Because my parents have high blood pressure, once they are lifted up, it is likely to cause great disaster, and it is too late to regret it.

Last night, a 70-year-old woman in Taiyuan Community of Nanjing accidentally rolled down the steps on her way home and collapsed on the ground. Residents nearby saw no one helping them. After 40 minutes, the old lady was lifted from the ground and sent to a nearby hospital for treatment until the emergency doctor arrived on 120.

According to common sense, a 70-year-old woman fell to the ground, and nearby residents should help her up. Respecting the old and loving the young is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. However, have you thought about it? The old lady is getting old. If someone helps her up, who will bear the responsibility in case of an accident? So the police didn't dare to help her when they came.

In my opinion, what those residents really do is to get a haircut and wash their feet-from top to bottom, they should not call the police first, but should contact her family first. Her relatives are here, so you don't have to worry about being blackmailed if you help take her to the hospital. If she has no relatives, she should call 120 first. Do the medical staff still have the responsibility to help her?

Or: "The old lady didn't get up because of the' Peng Yu complex', which shows the indifference of human feelings." Personally, I think this view is simply a high fever without sweating-nonsense, someone will help the child up when he falls, why not lift a finger? However, if an old man falls down and someone hastily lifts him up, it is likely that he did something bad with good intentions and hurt the old man.

Why can't the old man get up easily when he falls? There is a simple reason. Most elderly people suffer from heart disease, hypertension and cerebrovascular diseases. After falling, if you get up by yourself, you won't fall behind at all. Once being dragged up by others with strong external force, it is likely to cause very serious consequences, ranging from serious illness to death. This is a big event, how can we not prevent it?

The ancients said, "Old people are old, young people are young, and young people are young." People help each other, which is a traditional virtue and should be praised. However, we must be cautious when helping the elderly who have fallen. For example, an old man was injured by a car and was lying in the street. If no one helps him, he will live. However, someone picked up the old man casually, and as a result, he died. Do you think this is helping the elderly or "murdering" the elderly?

Theoretically speaking, the old man still needs to be dealt with by medical staff when he falls. Don't break the machine casually if you don't know foreign guns. This is the way to be responsible for the elderly.
