Old Age: A Stage not a Curse.
Old persons become helpless because their body don’t support them. I know some time they become aggressive & rigid but we can try to cooperate with them. Some of us are unable to live with their parents or grand parents because of the job. But we can devote our time for them by calling, chatting & especially by video chatting (we can teach them how to chat on net; it’s not a big deal).
I think grand parents are like assets for us, because they having the experience of life which can’t earn by money. I know some times they don’t want to live with us in our small house in metro, because they love their home town.
We can do one thing; never let them feel that we are so busy in your life. Call them & ask about their health & try to meet them if possible. Remember one thing- We both (we & our grand parents) have a shortage of time. We don’t have much time from work & they don’t have much time to live.
