Getting old is a natural phenomenon and no one knows exactly what will happen to them, who will take care of them, and where will they be by the time they become elderly. This is becoming a worrisome thought for many people who are at their prime age. This must also be a consideration for many so that they can plan ahead of time about the inevitable fate that awaits them.
You can send them to homes for the aged. You can also opt to pay for elder care. There are charitable foundations and organizations both public and private that can provide nursing care for them. It is hard to carry all the responsibilities especially if you have your own family already. You will need the help of organizations and public service or charitable foundations. Even if you want to do it on your own, there are financial constraints that will hinder you from providing them what they truly need.
Some elderly people do not have the adequate benefits and savings during their earlier lives. They cannot support their daily needs like food, clothing, and medicines because they are no longer capable of employment. And they are over the required age to get a new job. So they often end up selling their properties that they have left.
Some pitifully resort to selling most of their sentimental valuables including their houses which they have invested for many years of working. It could break their hearts but often, they are left with no other choices. The most unfortunate individuals are seen on the streets, homeless, starving, and left alone by their children and relatives.
Planning before retirement must be a consideration for all. You are fortunate if your children will still care for you when your eyes can no longer see clearly, when you can no longer walk, or when you can hardly even remember their names. Otherwise, you will not have one single idea where you must go, what you must do with your life, and how to spend the remaining years you have in this world.
You cannot compromise your work by assisting your parents the whole time. You need to work for the future of your own family as well. This is really causing too much headache on many people. But somehow with love, families can get by just fine. There are just some financial drawbacks living with an elderly couple or one at home.
Regardless of money matters, it is still heartwarming to note that there are still people who, even if they already have a family of their own, still take the time, effort, and the hassle of caring for their old parents. Sometimes, it is just a matter of emotional restraint and time management. For some, though, this is too difficult to handle.
Government representatives and public servants must take note of this rising problem. The state is no longer capable of supporting the rising population of aging citizens. There might be a need to adjust and amend the retirement benefits so that these people will not be selling all their properties and be left with nothing.
Families can support each other. There is no questioning how most family members will see to it that these elderly citizens are in safe condition while they are still alive. But the government holds the solution to organize and distribute this growing population.
