Describe how elders are increasingly being left isolated

Such questions need to be attempted on your own to test your creative writing skills. However, these points might help you elaborate:

- The ideal situation is for the elderly to stay with their children or grandchildren.
- Family care can never be substituted by any other person or institutionalised care.
- But, the constraints of a job can often keep the kids away in metro cities or even in foreign land.
- At that time, the aged parents are left alone.
- In old age health and finances might be issues that require attention.
- Old people also require special moral support and love and care.
- Perhaps, a close relative can stay with the old parents.
- Domestic help can be arranged to look after the elderly.
- There are some very good old-age homes that take care of their needs.
- But, the best solution would still be for the children to look for options that can allow their parents to stay with them
