In Britain, when someone gets old they often go to live in a home with other old people where there are nurses to look after them. Sometimes the government has to pay for this care. Who do you think should pay for this care, the government or the family?

Britain like other western country has a family structure where the kids after an age venture out of the family and stay independent. In the recent past, new ecosystems started to build around to support

such

cultural systems in the western world. One

such

ecosystem is the assisted living

care

homes where older people often live where there are nurses to take

care

of them in their old age. While one group of the population says the

government

has to pay for

this

care

, I personally believe that the family has to pay for

this

care

with some state intervention when required. A research done by students in the US states that about 80% of

such

care

systems are privately owned and

this

number has been increasing steadily in the past four years.

This

growth is an indicator of the family preferences. Private institutions are more expensive than the

government

run ones. The

government

run ones which are much more affordable are preferred by the families that are economically challenged. It is atrocious to ask the

government

to pay for a private

care

a motor vehicle with four wheels; usually propelled by an internal combustion engine

car

where the families get to choose a range of services of the family's choice like what therapist to come when, what kind of

care

and which rooms they get to live in. The choices affect the pricing of the

care

a motor vehicle with four wheels; usually propelled by an internal combustion engine

car

. Having been to many assisted living facilities, one thing I have observed is that the older people miss being with the family the most. The

government

can aid families by providing funding assistance for families who are struggling financially. Apart from that the

government

can have intervention programmes where they can promote aging in place. They can support

such

schemes and provide financial aids, to the families who choose to do that.

Such

system benefits the older people and the families. In conclusion, I believe that it is ultimately a family's responsibility to take

care

of their old and the state can assist them in doing that. The family members should view

this

as a way of giving back to their parents who gave it their all to them when they were kids.
