Sometimes I wonder how it would be when I'll get old. I hope that I would be healthy and one day just die peacefully in my sleep. But I hinestly don't expect my child to take care of me when I'm old although it is customary here for children to take care of their old parents. But life is changing and now more and more women are working which means that it is almost impossible for children to take care of their parent.
One thing is certain, I would never take my parents away form their house to come live with me because this house represents all their sacrifices and life wasn't easy on them. And they have already told me that they would never leave.
What I can do as a child is to look for someone to help them when they can no longer do everything by themselves but not because they asked it but because I want to.
I would not expect my son to take care of me when I'm old.
I dont want any child but what in old age ?
