Elderly Parents

I think perhaps we have to think about it from another side. Perhaps this woman likes to work because she doesn't want to be idle at home. Life may be meaningful and interesting to have a work. This is why some people feel bored when they retire. If she likes working there, it will help her to be healthier and energetic.

It is so said to know we are all going to get old and dirty. I agree that some elders love to work. They think they are useless when they stop earning. Some do not have time to take care of the elders, they are busy at work or doing business. That is why a house for the aged is of great help for them. If I am given the chance to have enough finances and energy to take care of my old parents, I think I will do it. I can't afford to see them in the home for the elders.

we cannot blame also her kids maybe she want to work, maybe she feel bored when staying at home already, but in my side i will take good care of my parents till i have a strong and healthy life, if im not exist in this word my brother and sister will take good care of them. parent need the real love when they are old already because in that time they are so sensitive already.

I agree with you, we owe our lives to our parents and that's why we should help the as much as we could. Some people don't think that way. They just live their life and thats it. Some parents sent away their children when they were young and didn't help them when they needed help so maybe not the child wont help his parents. I can understand that and I really wonder what happened to the lady you are talking about. But there's another thing, some people, no matter how old or young they were, like to work. My grandmother is like that. She can't stop working and thinks she can do everything better then anyone else so we let her. She can't sit still for half an hour. She was always taking care of our front garden and this year I wanted to do it. She got so angry with me that I had to let her have half of the garden. my grandma is 71 years old but no one can stop her because that's just the way she is. Sometimes she hurts herself because she is not as young as she think she is but she doesn't want to listen. I told her million times to call me when she needs something but she doesn't want to. I think she doesn't wanna admit she is getting old. I love my grandma very much but I would like her to slow down.
