Sadly, we live in a very fast paced world where the cost of living is so high that many people cannot afford to take care of themselves or their own families and this in turn leads to many old people without any one to take care of them. While many will find fault at these children for not staying home and taking care of their parents, the sad reality is that it is almost impossible for a young person to give up their job and stay home to take care of their parents because even with both parents in a family working, families are still finding it very hard to survive. You can help these families and the old people as well by starting a home with nursing care to take care of them, You will find that many of these children will be happy to pitch in to pay for a home but will not have the time to physically take care of their parents.
