That is bad for the person.

Family

Families can get a lot of help.
Help and money can be applied for.

That's not so easy.
The family guidebook can help.

Women and money

Women and money is an important topic.
For example:

• Women sometimes get less money for their work
• Women have children and work less

Women have to care about money!

Otherwise they are threatened with old-age poverty.
If you are old-age poor,
you can't pay for everything.

You don't have enough money to pay for everything.
For example:

• Rent for the flat

• Food

• Dresses

• Medicines

Old-age poor people often have to continue working.
Or they need money from the state.
Because they have too little money to live on.

Women and work

Men and women should have the same opportunities.

Women often take on more care work and child rearing than men.
They don't get paid for this.
Men want to help more with care and child rearing.
A lot still needs to be done so that women and men have equal opportunities.

The website of the FederalMinistryfor FamilyAffairs, Senior Citizens, Womenand Youth( BMFSFJ ) has taken a look at this.
