Nursing Homes stink, that's all there is to say.

In the Filipino culture. We never send our elderly parents to nursing homes unless they really don't have any relatives left. Its a sign of respect. They lived for their children and when the time comes they need to slowdown, its time for the children to give back and take care of them.
I kinda thought about people is the USA, american kids don't respect the elderly because some "SOME" doesn't have any sense of family...

I hate nursing homes I mean it's good for the people who have no relatives alive to take care of them but if you have a FAMILY I don't care how much you hate them or they hate you, you as an elderly person should be with them and the other person should put all that mess behind an take care of them right. It don't matter how busy U R, do what's right. I wish my grandmother was here, she is so depressed in the home and she is too far away for us to visit as much as we'd like.

Don't we all are on either side of the spectrum on this one? ...: (
In the Hispanic culture we have our elderly parents with us in our home until they die. They took care of us and now we take care of them. The thought of nursing homes is very far from our minds.
