Since entering the aging society,China’s elderly population has been increasing,and the base of the elderly population has been expanding day by day.With the development of social economy,people’s concept of old-age care has changed,the boundary of family pension responsibility has gradually blurred,and the traditional family pension state has been broken.With the decline of filial piety culture and the gradual weakening of family pension functions,it is almost difficult for family pension to support the entire pension process of the elderly.At the same time,due to the widespread implementation of family planning,there will be more elderly people in family planning families in China in the future,and the large-scale "4-2-1" family structure not only brings great pressure to young and middle-aged people,but also poses great challenges to traditional pension methods.Due to the historical problems of system design,the support for rural elderly people in old-age services is far less than that in cities,resulting in the prevalence of rural self-care methods,and the awareness of rural elderly self-care is also increasing,and through wage self-support,business self-support,property self-support,etc.,for their own old-age security reserves and support.However,academia generally regards this pension method as a part of family pension,and rarely conducts separate research on it,so strengthening the research on the practice form and support mechanism of rural self-care has important theoretical value and practical significance.Combining with the field investigation data,this paper adopts qualitative and quantitative research methods to analyze the realistic motivation of self-supporting in rural areas.At the same time,according to the definition of self-care,starting from the main source of self-care support,the three practice forms of self-care and their support mechanisms are summarized mainly at the level of economic support,the current dilemma of the support mechanism is discussed,and the development ideas and optimization strategies of rural self-care support mechanism are proposed.It is found that the current rural elderly choose self-support under the comprehensive influence of subjective and objective reasons,and the differences of individuals lead to a certain degree of differentiation in self-support level and ability.Among the three selfsupport methods,wage self-support accounts for the majority,while the number of propertybased self-support and business self-support is small,and the three self-support modes complement each other and jointly structure the old age of the elderly.In specific rural areas,all kinds of formal support subjects and informal support work together to provide elderly care services for rural self-aged people,but in the current rural reality,various subjects are divided into sections,and the attention to self-support groups is also low,and the integration of pension resources is not realized,and it is difficult to achieve effective supply for self-aged people.In this regard,this paper proposes that we should start from the transformation of the traditional concept of old-age care,optimize and adjust the formal support system of the government,market,community and social organizations,and combine the informal support of rural dominance to jointly build a more complete new rural old-age support mechanism.
