SEC17 WK:#5: Caring for aged and dependent relatives in the family
When a human child born, it is helpless and it needs support of parents or family to grow up. Old age lead human to the same helpless situation and this is the decision of nature. Many parents are over concerned about their old age and raise their children to have them as the support of their old age.
I salute those old people who prefer not depending on young and keep working till the rest of their life and I met many old people around me who works even when they are physically not strong enough. But everything has a time limit and working old people also can be dependent after a certain age.
Let me share about my own family. My father is a 64 years old man and he took leave from work when he was 49 years and it was his wish to be dependent on family as he thought he did a lot for his three children as he gave foods, accomodation (rental house), education from kindergarten to 10th so he was done with his duty.
He left his job and started depending on her first or big daughter's income. She was struggling to have a job and after trying a lot she got it. We all three siblings struggled at our early age and now we two sisters (I'm little daughter) bearing all finance of our father. My sister and I send him eleven thousands of Bangladeshi taka but he needs more. His son left him for his limitless need. But we sisters are taking care as much we can.
Our grandmother (Mother's mom) is more than 75 years old now and she became widow at her early age. She had three children too. My mom is no more but my uncle and aunt take care of her since 1996 when my grandfather was died. My uncle and aunt's life was also full of struggle as they lost their father at their early age but he left some property for his family and was independent till the rest of his life. My heartiest respect for my grandfather.
My uncle and aunt giving all kind of support to their mother and as a grandchild I went to her often and gave her some money to spend of her own, she was very happy as her children provide her all necessary things but they doesn't give her money to spend of her own. I could buy cloths or foods for her but I realize that the money was much better for her. Once I bought her a Saree (women's dress) and she still remember about that. I'm glad that I made her happy once.

Masha Allah your post is very well made and I am happy to see that you care about your parents so much and you have worked so hard for yourself and worked for so many years and you have said this. I am rightly saying that when a child is dependent on someone, he cannot do anything by himself, and in this I would like to say that when a person reaches old age, he cannot do anything. Maybe others only take care of him and those kind of people consider it a burden on themselves even though it is the duty of the people to take care of them and they have the right to take care of their elders and I am very concerned about this. I am very angry that people leave their parents in the old age home and don't even ask them. We keep going to places where we have to work, so one day my duty was at an old age home, so I saw there were many people who were living there, whose children had left them there. So I feel very sorry for the way these people are living and their children also feel sorry for how they have left their parents here.

Hola amiga maravilloso concepto de lo que es el apoyo y el valor de la familia en la tercera edad me agrado leerte y es asi debemos retribuir todo el amor que han dado nuestros padres ellos nos cuidaron ahora nos toca cuidarlos a ellos bendiciones.
You are very blessed because you have given time to tale care ofnyour parents, other don't have like me.
I wasn't able to tale care my father because he died at an early age and wasn't bedridden before he die. He die a day after hospitalize.
May his soul rest in peace, it seems good people die at their early age! Sorry about your father.
Es una ley de la vida, que los padres cuiden de sus hijos para que estos luego cuiden de sus padres cuando la vejez toca la puerta.
Me alegra que tú y tu hermana se ocupen de las necesidades de tu padre, espero que Dios las provea de todo lo que necesitan. Fue un gusto leer tu publicación, saludos y bendiciones
