let me tell you a story before you write any decision...
an 80 year oldman was siiting on a sofa in his house along with his 45 years old highly educated son. suddenly a crow perched on the window.the father asked his son, "what is this?"...the son replied "its a crow"...after a few minutes the father asked the son for the second time, "what is this?"...the son said...father just now i said to you..."its a crow"...after a little while the old father agin asked for the third time..."what is this"...at this time some expression of irritation was felt in the son's tone when he said to his father "it's a crow, crow"... a little later the father again asked the son...for the 4th time..."what is this"...this time the son shouted at his father,"why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although i have told you so mant times it's a crow, it's a crow, are you not able to understand this?"...later the father went to his room and came back with a diary in his hand which he had maintained since his son was born...on opening a page he told his son to read it...the following words were written in the book...
"today my little son aged three was sitting with me on sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window...and my son asked me 23 times what it was and i replied to him 23 times it was a crow...i hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question again and again for 23 times...i did not feel irritated... i rather feel affection for my innocent child.
while the son asked 23 times "what is this" the father had no irritation on replying the question 23 times and today the father asked the same question just 4 times...the son felt irritated and annoyed.
i just wanted to convey this message to all the readers...that if your parents attain old age... do not repulse them or look at them as a burden..but speak to them a gracious word,be cool, obedient, humble and kind to them... and say aloud i want to see my parents happy forever..they have cared for me since i was child and i will serve my parents in the best way no matter how they behave

Wow. To cute, but as a parent of a toddler, I saw that ending coming. I'd write more on the subject, but I suddenly have the urge to call my Grandma.... Regardless of whether she will remember me today, or keep calling me by my mother's name no matter how many times I remind her it's me. :)
