Many people wrongly believe that when people reach old age, their families place them
in nursing homes. They are left in the


21


of strangers for the rest of their lives. Their


22





children visit them only occasionally, but more often, they do not have any

35


to
help
their
relative.
Some
stated
that
helping
others



36


them
feel
more
useful.
Others hoped that by helping


37


now, they would deserve care when they became old
and

.Caring for the elderly and being taken care of can be a

satisfying
experience for everyone who might be
