Essay about Old People Care Once kids leave home, parents must take care of themselves. Sometimes sons help them, but in other occasions, they left them alone and government must bring them the care and attentions they need. Based on this background, I am convinced that sons must always be in charge of their parents if they need special attention, with no exceptions. For instance, my grandmother was poor but along all her life, she worked to keep home and her children safe. Passing the years, one by one were leaving home. With time, she got alone, living by her own means. Afterwards, she got sick and in spite of she was living alone, all her sons carried on with the expenses of her medical treatment and they were beside her until she died. She rested in peace because her sons never let her alone when she needed them. She felt her efforts of young mother were compensated. They could leave her alone because nobody could force them to help her, but deep feelings like love and gratitude made them to be always with her in those instances. By means of this example I try to show that sons should ever take care of their parents. It does not mean that they have to live by them, at the same place. Nevertheless, in ancient ages, old people need to be assisted like children and we must to return the favor to them, not for obligation, but as a proof of true love. Only in cases of complete abandon or people without sons, government should take care of old-aged persons. To summarize, it is a fact that life is a cycle. Now we are young, but tomorrow will be ancient. Therefore, we should take care of our relatives in old age because in the past they gave to us the best and it would be a shame that we forgive them in the end. Beyond of money issues, love and gratitude to them must prevail.
