i think this is one alarming issue which needs to be nipped at the bottom.with the rage of nuclear family gaining dominance children no longer feel obligated towards their parents anymore and feel they are a burden on them socially and financially.i think it's time that some laws need to be regulated and formulated well in their place to counter the problem.in india we have a law that if parents have been staying with the son from earlier they can't be turned out or else the son will have to pay their maintenance which i feel is a good step towards ensuring that children understand their duties towards their own families and also their parents.
