The curse of
dependent old age
Compiled by
P.R.Ramachander
The second most important
problem faced by us is that”
There is no one to take
care of us at old age
especially when we are
physically dependent”
Even about 80 years
this problem was not there because
1.Every one had
several children and some one
of them will take care of them
2.Most of the children were financially
dependent on their parents
3.All old and young lived
in India and after
retirement old people used to retire to their native village to live
amidst friends and relatives
4. People used to die
around 60 years of age when
they are not physically dependent
45Every
individual in India felt that it
is their primary duty to take care of
old people
56There were no old
age home to go,
At the present time
1. Each
of has have one or two children
2. No
child is financially dependent on his parent
3. Retired
people settle down in the place they retire, far away
from their close relations
4. Most
of the people live very long, subjected to physically
depilating diseases and the curse
Alzheimer’s disease
5. Children
do not feel that it is their duty to look after their parents
6. There are very large number of old age homes
What can be done
1.Start having a large family with many children
2.Become financially
not dependent on your children,
if needed do not support them beyond an age
as done in foreign countries
3.Before retirement , along with relatives and friends buy flats in the same apartments(your
own old age homes)
4,Nothing can be done about old age diseases except suffer and try to lead
a healthy life3
5.Nothing can be done to make children realize that it is
their duty to look after you
6.If you are financially okay go to an old age home
All these I understand
are impractical, Nothing can be done
.If God wants you to suffer in old age
there is no other option except
praying him
