[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assisted living was great for my parents. They made friends and had meals with different friends every day. Dad would go to chair yoga, Mom would go to a prayer group. They had movie nights, musical performances, etc for the residents. When they were still in their house, they became isolated because they didn't like to drive and their mobility was declining. In assisted living, they were able to be social in a way that would have been impossible if they had come to live with us. I only regret we didn't encourage them to move sooner.[/quote] +1 All of the elderly people I know who live with their kids or live alone are lonely. They never leave the house, never socialize with people their own age besides each other and seem to just sit around in front of the tv all day besides being shuttled to doctors appointments.
