General Forum: Current 'Affairs' | WHY SOME PARENTS ARE IN OLD AGE HOMES, WHILE THEY HAVE CHILDREN? | |
| Bringing up children is an art, that does not mean that they have to beat to obey the parents or punished during their childhood. If then grown up children then still like their parents and takes care of them in their oldage,it is a perfect bonding between the parents and kids. One basic thing is that blessings of elders is always a must for the growth and welfare of the children, more so blessings of parents. The children duty is to take care of their parents in their oldage, no second thoughts.

Well I dont think, all the people living in the old-age homes never loved their kids.
Again, I am talkin about the majority of the cases.. though there may be a few instances where the parents could be at fault ..
Posted by: Malakpet Rowdy At: 28, Jun 2005 8:51:22 PM IST No Parent would look at the kid as an investment. While the kid grows up the only thought that lingers in the mind of the parents would be the future of the kid ...
So its not like you "invest" some love in yoru kid and expect "returns" after you turn 60!
If you are a good parent u would love your kid unconditionally and if u are a good kid you'd love your parents irrespective of what they are!
Posted by: Malakpet Rowdy At: 28, Jun 2005 8:18:51 PM IST Absolutely right Do Boy ..But I am not talking about the rare cases where Kids dont get a chance to serve the parents .. I am talking about the majority cases where Kids can but dont do it.
What do the parents need after all, a lil bit of affection and some care - physically and emotionally. They dont want the kid to change kid's lifestyle because of them ... in a nutshell, its just a matter of giving 'em a lil accommodation in the heart..
again, I'm the only kid to my parents and I dont have any siblings.. so my views might be different from the views of the people whohave siblings..

It is the least u can repay them for what they have done for u and it is becoz of them , that u r what u r.

Posted by: Malakpet Rowdy At: 28, Jun 2005 6:17:19 PM IST I understand it Do Boy, but then dont you think looking wftr basic eminities is the barest minimum a kid can do for the parents who would have sacrified a lot of things for the sake of the kid?
What would be their position when they grow old and their kids behave the same way?
Posted by: Malakpet Rowdy At: 28, Jun 2005 6:16:04 PM IST hi, MR, gd evening, i fully agree with you, most of them are responsible kids, only due to pressure from others, relatives, wifes, inlaws, sometimes, they act differently.
Posted by: DoBoy At: 28, Jun 2005 6:11:09 PM IST It's MY responsibility to see to it that my parents live comfortably. (I am not talkign about those 1% odd cases where parents dont want to stay with children)... Thats the LEAST a kid can give back to the parents ..
reminds me of a song from the movie "Ek phool do mali" ..
aaj ungli dthaam ke tere .. main tujhe chalna sikhladun
kal haath pakadna mera .. jab main boodha hojaaun!!
Posted by: Malakpet Rowdy At: 28, Jun 2005 6:03:06 PM IST I blame the children for it ..
