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?

In the UK, most of the elderly people are living in old-age homes where they all are taken care by nurses. While the cost of looking after of

people is given by the authorities, in my opinion, I think that the family should pay money for taking care of their old parents. There are multifarious reasons why family should take

responsibility

of paying to the old-age homes.

Firstly

, the government has several critical areas that have to be funded

such

as healthcare, services, and infrastructure. If the government pays the cost of nursing homes,

then

it would create a huge strain on them.

Hence

, the authorities would not be able to improve these sectors.

Secondly

, If the family members take

responsibility

of paying the nursing homes, they would have a chance to meet their parents.

This

is necessary for their and the family members as well. Owing to visit old-age homes, young people spend a quality of time with their aged parents.

As a result

, they would respect

a paramount desire of old people. It is crucial for the youth to meet their old parents in order to see smiles on their faces;

the responsibility

of the family members.

Moreover

, parents nurtured and completed all desire of their children when they were young. No one can deny their sacrifices for the family.

Consequently

, it is imperative for the family members look after them.

For instance

, there is a rule in Japan, family members have to pay for the expenses of their old parents, and they have to visit the old-age homes once in a month. In conclusion,

although

the governments fund the old-age homes for taking care of old people, the family members are the key persons to take

this

responsibility

on their own.

Thus

, I believe that sacrifices of parents should not be overlooked they become old.
