  In order to avoid property disputes between their children, the two elderly people have been living in the form of "walking marriage". However, five years later, their father wants to remarry his ex-wife, which greatly affects their mother-in-law. Yesterday, a woman in her sixties came to the Women's Federation of the city for help, demanding that her father compensate for the mental damages.
  Grandma Wang Qiuju (pseudonym) is 64 years old this year. After losing her husband in her early years, she raised her two daughters alone. In 2003, I met my father Pan Yong, who was two years younger than me, and the two of them quickly fell in love. At this time, Pan Yong had been divorced for 3 years, and his son and daughter had already started a family. He was living alone at that time.
  In order to avoid disputes over property between the children of both parties or unclear support issues after remarriage, the two elderly people reached an agreement: walking marriage does not require a marriage certificate and will be accompanied for retirement.
  Last June, Pan Yong's grandson was born and he started to keep in touch with his ex-wife. Over time, he completely ignored the existence of Wang Qiuju and lived a happy life with his ex-wife's family. Last week, after Wang Qiuju caused a stir, Pan Yong expressed his intention to remarry his ex-wife.
  The head of the Rights and Interests Department of the Municipal Women's Federation said that elderly people who engage in "walking marriage" are not protected by law, just like young people who live together. It is understandable that many elderly people choose to get married by walking, but from the perspective of their retirement needs and love, it is best for them to register for remarriage. Sign an agreement before remarriage, specifying property, relationship with children, both parties' pension, illness care, etc. This agreement is more conducive to protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly.
