从心理上讲，老年时期要预防两种危险。
其一是对往事过分地关注。
老人不应当生活在回忆中，或是对过去好日子的惋惜中，或是对已逝朋友的悲伤之中。
老人的思想要转向未来，要转向尚来得及干的事情上。
这并非易事。
往事对老人来说会变得越来越重要，他们很容易自思自忖情感不如以往活跃了，思维也不如以前敏捷了。
假如果真如此，就不必顾及，若不去想它，事情可能又并非如此了。
另一件要预防的是依赖子女，希望从他们身上重新获得青春的活力。
你的子女长大成人后，都想过自己的生活，假如你仍然像以前那样关注他们，你很可能就会成为他们的负担，除非他们对你的关注毫无反应。
我并不是主张老人对子女毫不关心，但这种关心应是思想上或者可能的话，经济上的支持，而不是太感情用事。
动物们在其后代一旦能自食其力后，就不在关照它们可是人类由于襁褓期太长，感到
难以如此行事。
