"Say No to OLD AGE HOMES"

We are going to discuss about a huge Imprecation for our society that is "OLD AGE HOMES".. Why old age homes?




➤ What is OLD AGE ???
The general definition of old age is the person with faded hairs, wrinkled skin, old at the time of retirement etc.. But actually a person is completely old when he /she can't take care of her/himself for their own day today activities which means they are dependent on their close family person that is OLD AGE..

➤ Caution for all of us:- One day we are also going to be old.. So be prepared for that..

➤ What is OLD AGE HOMES??
In earlier times the elders were highly respected in every household.  They were consulted on everything and were considered as God's blessings in the house.  

But with the changing times, there have been many social changes in India.  Women have also started going out.  They do not have time for the elderly in the house.  

Here, I'm not saying to all but according to some people the elders are useless. Elders feel very bad in this way and then old age homes are built so that they can go there and live their lives freely and they are not seen with hatred.. Is this our humanity??

 ➤ Why OLD AGE HOMES??

1. Children are working away from home

Most children reside outside India or in another city for work purpose and the ageing parents are left, all alone with no one is to look after them. A retirement home offers the opportunity to live as a community giving the feeling of an extended family.

2. Ego Clash

The ego clash between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law causes too much stress in the house and the situation comes at such the worst that they can not live...

3. Lack of Patience

New generation is becoming more materialistic and their attitude towards parents is changing. They seem to have lost their patience.

4. An Interference

Sometimes grown-ups fail to realize their duty and are so much engrossed in their personal lives that they feel  it a burden to keep the parents with them. They feel it as an interference in their personal lives and eventually tell their parents that they can not keep them.

Why Elders are important in our life and what should be our duties??

Just think about our childhood days.. Our parents always gave us the right direction for the betterment of our life and they did all the things for our happiness by keeping out their own desires. 


If we think, why are they doing all this? Just because by thinking that their son or daughter will take care of him /her at old age, this must be the only reason even if this is not openly told by our parents. 


Today's life style is not allowing to think about this. When they are in need of our support in their old age, we drop their hands and admit in the old age home.. This is really unfair.. 


Our duty towards old age person are to respect them without any kind of selfish reasons and engage them in our life socially. What ever you are today is because of  them only..

What old age people should also understand ?

The time has changed, that's why the old age people should also change with the time living in a house in a village is all disappeared.. It's not good asking your children to come and visit you very often who is in a far city or even abroad..

 Now both the men and women are supposed to go for a job in this present situation to lead a decent life in the society.. So if there is a situation where you have to stay in your son or daughter's home in a city,  just go and adjust to the situation..

➤ What I think, to solve this??


 There will be some solutions if some of these are changed like teaching kids to respect elders, making them understand the value of relationship, kindness, educating children that it is not the only responsibility for the male child to take care of the parents and also a female child, make them understand relationship gives more happiness than ego and money..

 Allow kids to visit their grandparents and relatives place regularly and also Educating a child saying that taking care of parents and in-laws are equally important to making money for the family needs.

 

Yes, of course taking care of our old age parents are hard, they give us some trouble, so irritating sometimes but it's our responsibility. They are not doing all this knowingly, we will only understand only when we are in that age. Don't forget we are also going to face such situations. So, be patient and talk to them at least the time when you have a cup of coffee..  So, this Problem is not something which we cannot solve it needs a change in our mindset.


Let each one of us make a change to stop this most cruel happening..

  11. - As the owner of a renowned Assisted Living Residence in Gurgaon, I can say that there are two important reasons. Firstly, aged parents themselves often choose to shift to such old age homes in search of companionship, freedom from household chores, responsibilities of children, pursuing a hobby and more. In such cases, assisted living homes are their first choice. Secondly, often terminal illness in aged parents compel their children to send them to old age homes, because these homes have in-house team of doctors, nurses, caregivers and emergency-handlers to take care of senior citizens which children are unable to provide. At assisted living homes, senior citizens get better care and medical assistance than home, which is especially necessary for those with dementia, geriatric problems or post-operative patients. That way, their children remain stress-free too.
    Aurum, senior and assisted living homes in Gurgaon, Delhi NCR is a leading old age home in India. Its 36,000 sq ft living area is designed as a cozy living space that inspires home-like feelings. At Aurum, a senior’s physical and mental health is prioritized, and that seniors live a happy, healthy and dignified life is looked after

 As everyone knows that education is one of the most important aspect for all of us. Without education a person is like a withered tree.
