[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. I didn't ask to be born, but they didn't ask to get old. When they get old, they are my responsibility, just like I was theirs.[/quote] This. People used to take care of their elderly famliy members. This is how I grew up in the Midwest. I think, as a society, we have lost something vital when we see our elderly as disposable and a hinderance to our lifestyle.[/quote] Yes, but back in Mayberry, mothers didn't work outside of the home- making 24/7 care of an elderly person feasible. [/quote] Decades ago my mother cared for her mother [my GM] in the home. Years of intensive care like a newborn baby. Children became ancillary to the point I almost died [medical issue]. Lots of yelling and screaming about ungrateful horrible person [me] who wouldn't help with care. [/quote]
