Sending Elderly parents to a Nursing Home?

In a lot of countries, there are increasing number of nursing homes built for the increasing number of elderly in the place. In nursing homes, care will be provided by caregivers and nurses. Are you in favor of these nursing homes? In the future, do you want your parents to live in a nursing home? Personally, i dont want to put my parents in a nursing home rather when they grow old id prefer them living with me. I dont want them to feel neglected since we are all grown up now. I will care for them to show appreciation for the things they have done for me, in the past years. Though i will be working, i can hire someone to take care of them while im not around.

That's sweet of you, I'm a parent indeed, I don't want my children to send me to a nursing home. I love being with my children, and have my last breath.. I wish I could be still with them.

I think it is up to each person to what they want to do with their parents. If I am able to take care of my parents, I will do it in a heart beat.
