Families are the bedrock of society Lady @jaynie and sadly this new world is trying its best to eradicate families.
We see this so often in our work with the aged.
Parents dumped and children disappearing to all parts of the globe.

Mr X was sitting on a bench when we arrived at the old age home and he waved me over to apologise for not attending the service.
Excitedly he told me that his son was on his way to pick him up for lunch.
Well, when we left he was still sitting there and when Marian enquired from the Matron the next day, she said that his son never arrived and that Mr. X refused to eat on the day as his son was taking him for lunch.

We took him for lunch a few days later.

Treasure your family while you can my friend!
Blessings!
