Aging Alone in a Crowded World
In today’s rapidly evolving world, marked by technological advancements, shifting cultural values, and fast-paced lifestyles, one deeply troubling trend is the neglect of elderly parents by their children. Once revered as the pillars of wisdom, experience, and love, many elderly individuals today find themselves lonely, isolated, and forgotten within their own families. The traditional values of respect and reverence for elders, especially in cultures like India's, are eroding under the pressure of modern priorities and individualism. In earlier times, joint family systems were common, where parents, children, and grandchildren lived together under one roof. The elderly were natural heads of the family, not only consulted on all major decisions but also provided care and companionship by their children and grandchildren. Their presence was considered a blessing, and their guidance a necessary part of life. With the rise of nuclear families, urban migration, and a more self-centered lifestyle, this structure has crumbled. Parents, after spending their entire lives raising their children, find themselves living alone in their later years, either in neglected corners of the house or in old age homes, far from the warmth of the family they built.
