It is a sad reality that in some parts of the world, close friends and even family

members are facing difficulty in finding time to look after the older members.
There are many reasons for this situation and steps are needed to ensure that
people in their last years are taken care of and loved.

There are two main reasons for the increasing challenges faced by people in taking
care of the elderly. Firstly, today most people have a hectic schedule and besides
their caregiver duties, they also have to tend to their children, their jobs, and
other responsibilities. The second reason is that the longer life expectancy means
that in some families, young people have to take care of two old generations in
place of one. Finally, changes in demographics also mean there are less people to
take care of older parents than before.

However, there are also steps that can be taken to address this situation. To begin
with, whenever possible, people can take the work from home option, so that they
can spend some extra time with the elder members. If this is not possible, they can
hire caregivers for certain hours since caregivers can not only help with the
health and exercise needs of the elderly but also keep the old people lively by
providing them someone to talk to.

In addition, the young members of the family can familiarize the elderly with
technology, so that the elder members can stay connected with them, even when they
are busy. Technology can also help reduce the dependency on the young. For example,
if the old people have mobility issues, they can order things online instead of
asking the young members to get them the items. Last but not least, the elderly
need to be accommodating and must be willing to make certain changes, especially
when it comes to their health.

In conclusion, there are various causes why the young generation is finding it
challenging to take care of the elderly, but with certain measures, this issue can
be addressed.
