  • Rising number of old age homes definitely signifies the gap that has come up among family members specially the elderly people and the younger ones but it is not a completely negative situation.

  • Given the fast pace of today's professional life, it is difficult to manage professional and personal life simultaneously.

  • Also, high expenses of living in towns and inflationary policies of government makes it necessary for both the partners to work, leaving no one to look after the elderly at home.

  • In such a scenario, old age homes are a boon as one can be assured that his/her parents are being looked after by someone.

  • Even if the elderly people were to live in a nuclear family, they will feel secluded as there will be no one to talk to.

  • Old age homes are a good alternative as one finds many friends of same age there. They share their experiences of life, laugh together, eat together and enjoy life. This provides them with a homely environment.

  • If at all, the problem lies with the agencies that maintain old age homes; not with the idea itself.

  • People should aim at improving the quality of such homes rather than shunning them completely.

Regards
