[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived through a similar situation with my parents and it almost ruined my own health. I really think that the government needs to help elderly people who are sick and broke. The resources of a family are rarely enough to care for sick, aging parents. Other countries take better care of elderly through government resources, the US is failing the elderly. [/quote] That’s what social security is for. Granted for many it’s insufficient to maintain the lifestyle that they want. But the government does provide aid. [/quote] Money isn't the only thing that elderly people need. My parents are very well-off financially, but I worry about their ability to take care of themselves physically and maintain their home. [/quote]
