Sending Parents to the Old Folks Home
We often said that our kids are growing up. But has anyone ever realize that our parents are growing old every single day? Can you remember the last time you actually hug your parents or bring them out for a proper dinner outside? Some of us may still do that. But definitely not all of us. Some people may even forget when was the last time they actually visited their parents.

Children that abandon their parents are called jerks, or maybe you can call them bastards. Any bad names that you give them, they deserve it. Abandoning your parents is A CHOICE, not a mistake. That's why you should not blame anyone for your own fault. Don't give people stupid reasons like 'Oh, i'm busy with my job. How am i going to take care of my parents? '. If so, your parents can choose to say ' I'm busy with my job, how am i going to take care of my kids? ' and just send you to the orphanage. But did they do that? No. In fact, taking care of a baby is way harder than taking care of an elderly people. Baby poop and cry almost all the time but they still bare with you. And you, if you are busy with your job, can't you just hire a maid to take care of your parents? Is it that hard?

If your husband or your wife refuse to to let you bring your parents along when they are sick and need to be taken care of, then just dump your husband/wife! You have to remember that you only have ONE mother and ONE father whereas husband/wife you can get it anytime. Of course, i am not asking you to cheat on them. Just leave them! People who doesnt know how to take care of your parents, won't take care of you when you are old. And think twice before you send them to the old folk's home.

Maybe one day, your kids will treat you the same way like how you treat your parents. Some people who become rich when they grow up will sometimes send their parents to the old folks home because they think that their parents are useless and will embarrass them. No, this is not how it should be. A good parents

The fact is that they just want to take care of their babies, make sure that they are doing okay and to be a part of their lives as they get older, so they do what they think is best for their child, but for many children that is just not the case.…

    Parents should not raise their children one way and then one day decide that their child no longer needs them, rather it should be a gradual process through the child's life. As the child learns how to do things on their own, or gets a better sense of right and wrong they should be granted more freedoms and privileges. For example, a five-year-old child should not be allowed to chose what they or what their bed time should be. They may be allowed to choose what to eat from a list of options but not anything they want. The reason being that most five-year-olds would choose to eat something like "candy and ice-cream" and try to go to sleep as late as they…

    There are different kinds of parents some are good to their children, but some are not. Most parents raise their kids the way their own parents raised them, whether it is good or bad. Some parents are too protective, and some are too laid back. Then there are the parents who don’t really care, and that is my father, Vernon Barabino. From him I have learned that it is okay to leave your children, its fine to never call or text them, and lastly it’s awesome to make promises that you cannot keep. Although, I have not grown up completely without a father figure, not having my actual father in the picture has been stressful.…

    There are many ways that a child can pick up the negative behavior that could be given to them by their parents such as how their adults deal with situations or how they act towards the child when at home. There is a rough outline that parents should follow in order to provide a balanced relationship. There is a very fine line between wanting respect and wanting them to fear you and sadly there are some individuals who cannot differentiate the two. We still have the same problems today; it is difficult knowing what is the right thing to do and what is not when you are raising a child. In the end, the best thing to know is to ask yourself if what you are doing is in the child’s best interest. Those who have children who look up to them and depend on them should know that although it might not seem like it right now, children will never forget the type of attention which they received at an early age when they are with loved…

    The child or young person may be looked after away from the family if the parents feel they are incapable of taking care of them and have requested that they be adopted or in a foster family. One example of this is financial difficulty as the parents do not have enough money to care for the child and give it even a reasonable standard of life. Another example of this could be young parents that feel they are too young themselves to be able to take care of a child they may…

    Every adult has gone through a phase where they were rebellious towards, or simply didn't appreciate, their parents. While most parents have a great deal of affection for their children, some parents express themselves through their actions. For children who grew up with affectionate parents it may seem hard to visualize what it would be like to have a secluded and strained relationship with them. And unfortunately some children grow up with cold distant parents who have little to no affection for them. Some children have a complicated mix of affection and fretfulness or are filled with angst for no apparent reason. As children, many are unaware of their parent's affection or the struggles that exist from parenthood. I was lucky enough to be…

    Generational Welfare

    For most of America’s history, farmers, entrepreneurs or shop owners could live their entire lives without getting any assistance from the federal government except maybe mail. But those days are long gone. In 2012 the total number of Americans on government assistance or welfare reached 4,3000,000. Many of which are 4th or 5th generation Welfare recipients. For whatever the reason, we have become a culture of dependency in which poverty is a trap. Long-term recipients loose job skills, work habits as well as work contacts. For this reason the government should require recipients to work as much as they can. It could be called “workfare” and could help recipients increase potential long-term earnings.…

    Not only this good son or a good daughter would be caring towards his/her parents. It is a fact that as children grow to their youth, parents start their journey of old age. And in the old age they demand as much care and attention as children need when they are very young. It is obligatory for the children to remain caring, dutiful and pleasant to their parents and make them feel as part of family. It is often seen that children start feeling that their parents in the old age are no more than a burden. This is a very wrong attitude and in my religion this is strongly condemned. Instead it is advised that when in the old age, parents should be taken care of by the children as children as children were taken care of in their early age.…
