Band 6+: Some believe that younger family members should be legally responsible for supporting older family members when they become physically, mentally and financially unable to look after themselves. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

It is often argued that young families should take care of older people as they usually struggle physically, mentally or financially and unable to take care of themselves. I strongly agree with this view because supporting old people shapes the young families’ responsibility and may also be a reason for broadening their perspectives.

To begin with, responsibility given legally to take care of old people encourages young families to feel a sense of responsibility. Humans are naturally social beings who seek different ways to rise their alertness ans responsibility towards their jobs. This can be clearly seen among young families, who tend to create some sort of tasks in order to be more responsible towards their families. It is essential to point out that, taking care of older people can be a nice approach and way to fulfill their these kinds of intentions. As an example, many novice families often struggle with being responsible to their families this is because they before have not faced any periods which would be a responsible task for them. Nevertheless, looking after older people copes with this issue as they can not accommodate their own needs by themselves, young families should.

Another key factor is the powerful role of increasing one’s worldview. Many families especially the young ones often seen as struggling to decide a correct choice for their families or do not have a certain type of experience to do some sort of activity with their beloved ones. For example, research shows that a huge percentage of novice families are seen as struggling and often seen to make the wrong choice. However, taking care of older people might be the most effective solution to this problem as when they take care of old people they interact with each other and young family members can ask them to share their experience in life or organize deep talks about anything useful that will broaden their horizons.

In conclusion, I firmly believe that younger families must look after the ones as it will both be useful for them and for the older people as well. The need of taking care for older people is strong so fulfilling their wishes might end up as a nice approach to improve young families’ responsibility and widen their perspectives.
