elders to stay in home for the aged?

I don't think that sending the elders at the home for the aged is the wisest decision. We must let them feel that even if they are old, they still belong to a family.

i don't think it's better for the elders to stay away from us coz here in our country Philippines it's own culture and traditions that we take care more of our elders and even put attention to them. At their age they need more love and care and this is one way of showing also our respect and thanksgiving for what they have done when we were still kids until we grow old.we are really family oriented...

Well, it might be a yes or a no... to either send them to the home for the aged or not. For me, i'll go for not sending them to. As long as i am able to feed and serve them on their twilight years, i would stand for them. As a matter of a situation like can't afford to set beside them, it would be better to send them to the home for the aged for the sake of proper care rather than be left alone at home with no one to talk to. If i will be the one who's gonna be old, i'll respect the discretion of my children as to how would they decide for me. Its just ok if they would send me to the home for the aged or stay at home. Well, i certainly believe in my faith, they can't stay away from me.

i have set my values already and i have committed myself to take care of my parents as long as they live which i have proven already that i would really like so much because before my father passed away last december, i took care of him and have put my business aside.he became my priority and the same i would do for my mama. i do not want them to be placed in a home where they don't feel home. they would feel a lot better being home and they will be better being at home.

I want to put my parents in home,because they have been busy in earning money for us for a long life,it is time for them to have a rest.but they do not agree,they still keep on working,they want to share our burden,they want to earn some money in order to decrease our expense.I think when I am old,I will be the same with them,because all parents love their children very much!

You know its a shame people consider their elders to be someone they can stay without. Throught out life it is their teachings we have been able to turn out to be such busy people. Its like forgeting to drink water when you choke. I wonder how you would feel if your elders thought of you as a burden or someone that they could not give time to and place you in a boarding school or send you of to military school it isnt pleasant. They are the foundation of our life and its style. They deserve much better.
