As the average age of people grow older worldwide it also brings up questions, for instance in Britain, on whether the government should finance cares provided to elderly living in retirement home or, on the contrary, should it be a family matter?.
Growing old is not a choice but an aspect of life that no one can deny and will experience sooner or later, regardless of the job people are involved in or how much they earn.
Although I tend to think that the government should be financially
more responsible for taking care of retirement homes,I don't leave out the fact that family has also a role to play.
On the one hand, old people have usually participated in raising country's growth and making it thrives, thanks to their works they provided as well as taxes they were required to pay so that those can be invested into building, new highways, hospitals, schools,just to name a few. That's why looking after them should be considered as one of the governement's duty and priority.
However, besides the fact that love and values towards loved ones can't be omitted, family should contribute as well especially when it comes to buy new clothes or anything that could be related to personal belongings, and also in order to make sure elderly live in a safe, healthy and clean atmosphere.
In a nutshell, I must admit that it is quite tough to lean towards one or another and think that both the government and family need to pay for cares because, beyond the financial aspect, they all somehow owe to elderly.
