Our responsibilities towards senior citizens

Suggestions

A few do's and don'ts for the younger generation:

Spend at least an hour a day with the elders; have a meal with them; take them for regular medical check ups and occasionally take them out.

Don't send them to pay telephone or electricity bills; don't treat them as baby sitters; do not invade their privacy or interfere in their daily routine.
