Miserable Condition of the Elderly
It is a harsh reality that the Indian elderly people are not a happy lot. The elderly people have more challenges than the young ones. Weakening health, dwindling finances, few sources of income, and neglect from their children affect them severely.
The worst challenge for them is their own children turning their backs on them. The number of old people being sent to old age homes is constantly growing. According to reliable data, there has been 69 % increase in the residents of old-age homes in the last four years.
On social media videos of discarded parents crying for help are quite frequently uploaded. Seeing the elderly in miserable state pains the heart. It is sad to see the elderly being discarded like this by their own children! Do these children forget all the love, financial help, education, nurturing, etc. they had received from their parents?
It is very unfortunate that in some families, the elderly are not given due respect and treated badly. They are discarded by their own children for petty things in life. Such lonely elderly people have to take shelter in old age homes. We must not forget that homes cease to be sweet homes without the elderly. The elderly people have all the valuable experience and wisdom with them. We must use it to make our life better. Besides, the kind of unconditional love we get from them, no other person or being can give us that type of love.
We must hold on to the elderly people in our families and stay in the light of their love and wisdom. We need the elderly and the elderly need us!
