i am not in a very rich situation in life but i dont think that i will send my parent to old age home ever. i will like to live with as long as GOD has gifted them this precious life . i want to spend my time with them . i am myself a mother today and i love my baby very very much. she also loves me very much.. today i am doing so much for her, which i should not say because as a parent every one do that for their children, but i want to say that my parents also did so much for us when we were young, in school, in college, they use to help us in study, giving us milk and snacks and whatever we need while studying. today they are old and they need us. how can we leave them to suffer there. one day when we will go old and then our children will also leave us there, it sounds so bad. we have arguments and there are frustrations at times, but they are parents , we need to listen. they are old, we are also old so we can listen and take there words accordingly. i live with my in-laws and life is full of frustrations at times. but then i think, my hubby is there only son and then we also have one child, i don't want to argue and fight with them to give and set an example in front of my child, how to deal with your elders and parents.
 
i appreciate your topic.yes that's true that modern generation has lost iys value.they consider the old people as a burden never giving a thought that one day they will get old too and would it be better for them if their children also treat them in a similar way they are treating theirs?there should be a level of understanding between a child and his/her parents.you shouldn't forget when you were a kid,even you were irritating sometimes and annoying too but your parents never left you to an orphanage for that,then how could you even think about your parents that way?
 

It depends upon all the members dwelling within. We cannot dogmatise. It is better the old Parents live in comfort without tears.
 
No, I won't send my parents to an old age home. I have an invalid mother and we are taking care of her. I admit it's not hard to take care of an old person but I can't imagine my mother going to a place where she has no family to take care of her. I'd rather take care of her myself than let other person do. Family is very important here in my country and we have much respect to our parents.
 
I don't think so, here in my country we live together for better or worst. Parents will taking care of one of the children when they get old and the rest of the children will send their support financially. If my mother gets old, I want her to be with me, of course under with the permission of my husband. I don't want my mother to be in other place. I guess, that's the time we can replace what they did to us when we are young..Taking care of them when they get old.
 
I will NEVER put my mother in a home, the old folks home is SO bad here in sweden, prison is better. But im going to take care of my mother .
 
Hell no man. Why would i do that? And no one should either do that. Its really bad to send them to oldage home when we are there for them.
 

No I won't send my parents to old age home. Parents plays a vital role in shaping the future of their children. Like wise my parents also worked hard for the development of me in all aspects. Right from the begining of education and up to marriage they have well planned and seen that my life goes smoothly. Therefore, my parents remain with me only till their death.
 
no. I think that, for the most people, putting them in those old age homes is like putting them to trash. And some people do it so that they don't have to take care of the parents. The problem is that they leave them there till they die.

Some old people actually like being in those old age homes because they socialize more and they have more company.
 
My parents have long been gone. My father didn't go to old age stage because he left this world too early to an accident. My mother died from breast cancer. We took care of her till the end. I never imagine sending her to any home for the aged. She stayed with us till the very end. Sending parents to old age homes is like turning your backs on them. It's unimaginable how they'll feel if they learn that they will be sent to those kind of institution. Let us keep in mind that they brought us in this world, spent sleepless night taking care us then worked really hard to support us. Taking care of them would be the best way to pay them back for all the hardships they spent all their lives for us. We children are our parent's life, so let's not deprive them of the love and care they are supposed to get from us.
 
I won't send them to an old age home. Im not the richest right now but its because my birthday is so late in the year. I have to wait till July then i can get a job. good question
 
Family is everything..the hardships our parents faced in raising us is unimaginable. My mom went to work when she was pregnant, just to make ends meet. My dad worked two jobs..they struggled a lot to get me where I am today. So there's no way in hell I'm sending them to any home other than my own.
