This article explores several reasons why city dwellers don't like poor relatives to visit their homes, not because of apathy or snobbery, but because of deeper social and psychological factors. Here's a brief summary of the article:
Practical considerations for the exchange of interests
When faced with a request from a poor relative, people in the city may weigh in their hearts: What will this reception bring in return? If the answer is no, then there seems to be no need to add to this seemingly unhelpful burden in an already busy life. This consideration is not motivated by indifference, but by an instinctive reaction to equivalent exchange.
Territorial self-preservation
Home, for many, is the last haven and the ultimate embodiment of private territory. When the arrival of poor relatives shattered the tranquility, the sense of territory quietly took hold. Differences in living habits, invasion of personal space, these can be uncomfortable. The rejection of poor relatives by city dwellers is sometimes an instinctive protection of personal space, rather than a rejection of family affection.
Fear of troublesome foresight worries
In life, once a precedent is set, it can get out of control. People in the city fear that accepting a visit from a poor relative could trigger a chain reaction that would cause more relatives to follow suit, thus bringing additional burdens and troubles to an already tight life. This concern is not unfounded, but a reasonable foresight of possible chaos.

In real life, we may encounter similar situations, how to deal with the relationship with relatives while protecting our own interests and personal space is a problem that requires wisdom and communication skills. Through open dialogue and mutual understanding, we can better address these issues.
