1.  How can the older generation be helped?
The old generation can be helped in many ways. They can be taught the use of latest
technological gadgets, which can help them pass their time in a much happier way. My
grandfather is a good example. I installed the whatsappapp in his phone and now he is
happy reading jokes sent by his friends and chatting with them.
They can also be helped by making them feel wanted. They can be assigned the work of
looking after their grandchildren, which can reduce their loneliness and the young
parents can become free to pursue their careers, without the worry of caring for their
children. Children also are under the watchful eyes of their elders. So, it is a win-win
situation for one and all.
2.  What are the benefits of helping older people?
There are many benefits of helping older people. Whether we accept it or not, we all know
that the whole society is greying. There are so many elderly people. They have to be
helped to become as asset and not a liability. We can help them in keeping good health
and becoming self-sufficient.
3.  What is the current situation of families? Do they help each other?
I belong to India, and fortunately in India, family values are still very much alive. Families
help each other in all ways they can. We may not be living in joint 6families any more,
but the extended family system is still there. Even if we live in nuclear families we are
still well connected to each other. We have get-togethers on family functions and enjoy
the warmth of relations.
4.  Is childcare important? Who does it?
Childcare is very important. Good childcare can turn children into healthy, responsible
adults, who respect social values and create the world a much better place to live in.
5.  How do parents manage work life balance and raise children?
Managing work-life balance is an arduous task and very challenging nowadays. On top of
that raising children in a good way is why many people are coming back to the old joint
family system. Young working parents have begun to realise that no one can be better to
look after their children than their own grandparents.
Those who cannot, for any reason, avail the luxury of a joint family, have to shell out a huge
sum of money on day-care centres for their children.
