Recently I visited a home of the aged where group of innocent aged parents were abandoned by their children when they reached old age and when they were feeble or sick. I got the chance to interact and talk with them. After hearing their painful stories, I tended to write this blog and dedicate this to them as a sense of view on how such parents who are in the home of the aged, spending the later part of their life lonely.
I think that nobody can think about a life without parents. They are the sun and the moon in our world, in our family. It’s a love we can never count. Their love is unchangeable , unconditional and uncountable.
The happiest day of my life was the birth of my son. That day I experienced my parent’s limitless love towards me. My mother gave birth to me and made my arms strong whereas my father cleared the road me to come out from the darkness. The time has come for me to repay them, but I’ll be unable to complete my task, even if I try my best for them all my life time long. I guess, I don't have to explain the responsibility of being a parent as you all are aware about this.
If we do not think about our parents more, we are guilty of allowing, building more homes of the aged. I think all parents who are looking and waiting for their children to care for them as they grow older, and that is something that we, the children should think of.

Thank you very much Nadira for sharing your idea on the blog, as you said, when we are realized by seeing our children, we all too late may be...
great blog and thoughts needed in today's rat race ....
People are more selfish taking their nuclear family .....work .....and life style as a priority and neglecting theri f oremost duties..This all depends the individual and the situation they are in ... Most cases the children are selfish , brain washed and .....in laws wicked
Life is a cycle they little realize that but out there there are united and blessed families and thatis is what we teach our children at the end , respect..and love

Dear friend Cup, I agree with you as it is a major problem that is where we need to make a big discussion in order to focus more attention on such parents in our region. And I thank to my friends Wasif, LiLiana, Nawa and other who added their great opinions on the blog to make it value much better.
This is wonderful and glad you made improvements in here. And I really like the topic of the blog as it's a major problem we discuss everywhere in Sri Lanka. Nice blog, keep up the great work!
