RE: MindfulMonday: "Let us not abandon our parents, to them we owe LIFE!"

in ART LOVERS5 years ago

@porters here on behalf of @NaturalMedicine - It is sad how the family unit seems to have been split apart more and more! I was fortunate to have a husband who knew that it was our duty to care for our parents in their old age and was supportive of me when I had my father stay with us for awhile and I also went to stay with him for awhile when it was necessary. I am grateful I had that opportunity to serve my father and wish more could see that this is a natural cycle - that the parents take care of the child when they are dependent and when they become older it is an opportunity for the children to pay back some of that care they were given by taking care of the parents in their old age.
Thank-you for bringing this to our attention!

As parents when we bring a child into the world we feel the responsibility and duty to care for and guide our little ones until they are independent, that's what our parents did for us, the least they deserve is that in their adulthood when they become dependent again, they can count on us for whatever is necessary, I think that is the least we should do as children, Thank you for your appreciation and support!!@porters and @naturalmedicine
