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? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
In
this
world of the modern economy, everyone is getting busy with their respective lives. When Linking Words

grow old, they are often treated as a financial burden in our modern society as they don't contribute to the economy. Use synonyms

usually
they are sent to old-age homes where they stay with other old Add a comma

and have the nurses for their proper Use synonyms

and treatment. Use synonyms
However
, unlike the practices in Britain, I agree that the family should pay for the old-age expenses and not the government. The following essay will explore the reasons for my aforementioned stand.
Linking Words
Firstly
, since these old family Linking Words
members
have done and served us throughout their lives, it becomes our duty to help and take Use synonyms
care
of them when they need us. Use synonyms
For instance
, from the day an infant is born, all the responsibilities are taken Linking Words
care
of by the parents, till the child grows up and become independent. As the kid grows parent supports them both financially and emotionally. Use synonyms
Thus
, when they grow old and become dependent, it is the duty of young Linking Words
people
to support them, which they direly need.
Use synonyms
Secondly
, these old folks would find it very difficult for them to cope with strangers as they need emotional support. For all the love they want to give, taking them away from their loved ones toa distant old-age home would not be justifiable. Linking Words
Such
Linking Words
people
fell sick very frequently due to loneliness. Use synonyms
For example
, in a recently concluded survey, it was found that Linking Words
people
in old-age homes mostly die from feeling lonely. Use synonyms
Therefore
, it is the duty of the family Linking Words
members
to keep them in touch with these aged persons and bear the expenses.
In conclusion, I would reiterate my thoughts that family Use synonyms
members
should be the ones taking Use synonyms
care
of the aged Use synonyms
people
of their family. Use synonyms
Although
old Linking Words

with no family should be taken Use synonyms
