As a
responsible Son or daughter of your parents, you should always advise them well
and show them the right direction by all the time. Earlier if your parents were
a salaried class, they should be encouraged after retirement to come out of
their traditional thinking and be self-employed. Self-employment such as
driving privately for general passengers would help them getting out of boredom
factor so far. Besides that, encourage them for developing private businesses
such as shop keeping or property dealing to help them ensure additional income
for themselves.
Buy Some Land/Property for Your Parents
Nothing
can be more beneficial than buying a land/property as it is the most highly
reputed business in all over globe which mostly bears no financial loss but
profit only. If you are settled at your early age group, you should go and buy
some land/property to secure your future prospects. Once you built and secured
your future in life, you must try to support your parents to its full.

some land/property just for the sake of your parents would help them feel sound
and confident in their later stage of lives.
Let Your Parents Feel Special
It is
very important to make your age-old parents well pampered. Always try to feel them
special and great as they are your asset in life. Remember the time we were so
weak that we could not take care of ourselves, but it was our parents who took
great care of us .They always made us feel special and great in our lives. They
boosted our morale and gave us the best of energy level to fight with all odds.
Likewise,
at their later stage of lives, we need to acknowledge them as our parents and
our torch-bearers in our lives. We should roam around with them, listen to them
carefully and try to invite them for dinners outside homes. These humble gestures
would help them to stay well boosted and encouraged to lead healthy and
positive lives.
Drive Your Parents to Their Doctor’s
Appointment
These
humble gestures do make a big difference in building up a happy and well
connecting relationship. Our parents have always pampered us, took great care
of us all through their life spans and now it’s our turn to give back at the
best of our possibilities.
If our
parents need to visit their doctors regularly or scarcely, we try to accompany
them by driving them to their relevant doctor. It would really show our love
and affection, care for our parents. These small gestures are surely much more
important for the parents even than any kind of financial assistance.
Listening Your Parents Favorite Music and
Going to the Cinema Along with Them
It would
rather be more than an enchantment and recreation to listen your parent’s favorite
music while sitting aside to them. Commenting upon the quality of that very
music would help them rejoiced. They would surely not hesitate in sharing their
loving memories attributed to that very music and singer.
If
required you may go to cinema to watch your father’s favorite movie (whether
the early days old movie or some contemporary era movie). It would surely help
in removing the generation gap factor.
Try To Make Your Parents Feel Young
It does
not sound very common but try to make your parents happy, healthy, energized
and young by all the time. This only can happen when you are in a habit of
doing gossips with them, you may share your day to day affairs with them and
let them share theirs one.
Make
them aware of updated versions of ever changing norms of your society. Make
open debates with them and let your parents feel young by all the time. Never
try to feel them out dated and old orthodox at all. Try to feel them as fresh
as you are in the prime of your lifetime.
Time investment is always regarded than the
Financial Investment
In the
lifetime of all and sundry, time investment is something more valuable item
than any financial investment. Because a human being is not just a
materialistic specie but a bound of body and spirit and our spiritual diet
belongs to spending in quality time with our loved ones.
So there
is no substitute available to the quality time investment done by any
individual for the other one. Nothing can be better for any parents to have a
chance and spend quality time along with their children. They also like to
speak to their children, share with them their lifelong experiences and they
also love to hear the experiences gathered by their young ones around this
globe. This really brings both parents and children closer to each other.
Indulge Yourself in Physical Exercises Along
with Your Parent
Nothing
can be more beautiful than indulging yourself into some physical exercises
along with your parents who at that point of time really do need such exercises
liking cycling ,football playing ,walk , jogging , running, horse riding etc.
It would add up in strengthening your relations as a parents and children. They
would also get a chance to spend good, quality time with their children
alongside a healthy activity which is also their physical overhauling.
Plan Some Trip to Hill Station Along With
Your Parents
It is
very common among the young couples that they do spend their honeymoons at some
hill station or hilly point at the very early stage of their matrimonial life.
But it is not a very common custom in the Asian societies to visit these hill
stations along with their parents. Try to get this practice fashioned in our
societies to go out to hill stations with your grown old parents. It would
surely bring its hidden fruits to all of us.
Try to Encourage Joint Family System (living
Along with Your Parents after Getting Married)
The most
loveable and valuable legacy of The Eastern Societies has been the composition
of families as a Joint Family System. This vanishing culture needs to be
revived and encouraged once again with full emphasis upon it. The joint family
system has got a lot of gifts and blessings in it which needs to be re explored
and re discovered.
It not
only protects the younger generation from mis- leads and mismanagement but also
guides the young couples in right direction. The parent –children bonding also
brings a lot of benefits to each other. Even when the children undergo through
parenting process, they are guided and trained in a very smooth manner. The
grand children also feel themselves well protected among their grandparents to
its full.
The behavioral
factor does not get declined in the one unit system of family and modesty comes
first on top of the list in such environment.
