What would you who degraded do with your own elderly loved ones? Their lives are rich if you give them a chance to tell their stories of their lives lived. Quoting: ALL IS ONE IS ALL How would YOU LIKE TO BE TREATED in your older years? The same way? Do onto others as you would have them do unto you.... you have asked for rotten treatment.. have you not? Have you not proven one more reason why this world is so harsh? I am choosing to ignore that garbage. I still think it is a lovely thread. Thank you for the memories and smiles, CosmicFire. |

Whoa That was inappropriate of me Was joking I am sorry .I see how that looked now. No worries. I have the whole park and a few days at my disposal. These people love to talk and tell stories. And although they may be old, they are very sharp! Very!!! Heck, I am 50, and I still feel really young inside. I will probably still listen to some Metallica when I am 80. LOL Unless there is illness or dis-ease present, these people are just as 'on it' as many younguns, if not more so! |

LilMiss User ID: 76614166 United States 11/28/2019 09:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes possibly. I know for a fact that there are many elderly mindlessly voting Dem like it is still the 1960's. My poor Dad is in senior apartments and doing his best to red pill people but they look at him like he has two heads. My biological father was on GLP years before I was (he was not in my life until I was 17.) He did not tell me about GLP. GLP found me! When I got here I saw my Dad! (you cannot make this stuff up!) The dude that raised me raised me extremely liberal, and he will have nothing to do with me now. The apple does not fall far from the tree!!! Sounds like you got a cool dad, too! |

They would love to have someone with such a darling, sweet spirit, such as yours, to be with. Part of what broke my heart working in that environment, is that I would constantly get 'in trouble' for either "being too nice" (WHAT?!?!) or spending too much time with a resident. I worked on a wing with 23 double-assist residents (meaning they needed to be moved by help of machines, with two CNAs working the machines to transport.) I was expected to spend 5 MINUTES with each resident bathing, clipping nails, drying their hair and dressing them. We had 2 CNAs on that wing. SERIOUSLY??? All they truly want and need is for someone to look them in the eyes and listen. Simple human validation, not a lot to ask for, really.) I hope you do that! If you do, please come here and share. |

Get a grip they were just being funny and having a joke about the elderly. There is no need to go off the deep end over this. This can be a harsh world, but over reacting does not make things better. Laugh along with them. I am sure they ment no harm. |
tha sercher User ID: 76376986 United States 11/28/2019 09:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | hmm op, your thread has given me an idea, a bit farfetched maybe. you see three days a week i find myself with some free time after work. free time after work and before i can call it a night. what i am getting at is perhaps visiting some retirement homes or nursing homes and just visit and chat with the residents. as you can imagine i would need to have a delicate touch so to speak. i remember when i was young my grandmother spent time in nursing homes and i would see all the old folks in different rooms. thinking back on it now(im 36 just for reference) i realize how much info the older generations have to offer the world. always wanted to give them a voice on the internet. an encyclopedia of their knowledge if you will. what do you think? |
