My grandma lives with her daughter and sons. They have three houses in the same village.

For a thai culture, we do not have a home for elderly in the old day. The Young and Old live together in a house.

Thai people have a value to die at home.They do not want to die at the hospital. Somehow old people think that the spirit will stay around home and become protective to the family members. And they will have opportunity to reincarnate in the same family too.

Elderly Care Home is just being introduced, and many people in the city take their parents or grandparents to the home for the old They reason that they do not have time to take care of the elderly, and the elderly will be better off there. But I heard in the news, some just abandon the parents on the street. That happens, but it is not our culture.

I don't know.

My father would rather kill himself, than submit to his children taking care of him ,when he can't do it himself anymore.

That is simply unacceptable in my books.

My mother and father wiped my ass when I ****, and spoon fead me when i didn't know how to eat!

I will gladly return the favour when they can't do it themselves anymore.

I will never put my parents in an old age home...NEVER

It's easy to sort my father....I will just hire a couple of sweet nurses to take care of him 24/7

Mine are same as Vacanti's, he would better kill himself than knowing that I'll have to put myself at risk for him.

if i were a gran and were sick, I'd rather be under the care where i don't have to bother my kids or my grand kids... i would have lived my life (and without having to look after sick grans) ...It would be selfish if you expect people to have to spend their LIFE looking after you and not be able to make a better usage out of their time and their youth!

Off course, I'll have to make sure i remember my own words!
