 members to express their sense of gratitude in morbid times. Those who agree with the opinion justify by stating that they do not have sufficient time to care for the elderly while shuffling between jobs and upbringing of the children.
Furthermore

On the other hand
, many people believe having elderly people in the house is a bliss and blessing. In several South Asian countries, old people are considered

 respected. Children who grow up with their grandparents are more likely to appreciate and value the emotions of love, respect and kindness. Grandparents help with the upbringing of children, and pass on their wisdom accumulated with years of experience. Children grow up in a loving environment where they are well taken care of, and

Children can learn from their life and work experiences and in turn give them love and respect.
