The Elderly POPULATION

Who takes care of our Elderly Population

Don't take their Grandchildren away from their GrandParents.
Don't take their Grandchildren away from their GrandParents.

In today's world, many things have changed. We took care of our Grand-Parents and our Parents.

Children of the elderly can abuse them in many ways. They raised their children to become proud Parents, but that does not always turn out right. I believe we have our rights.

I have GreatGrand Children but have never seen them. My Husband died and the family fell apart. My Daughter Tess has taken control of this situation.

How many other Grand Parents out there are suffering the same fate? I am 77 and may die before I meet them.

This is called ELDERLY ABUSE. If you do not have money you cannot fight the system.

Elderly Abuse is widespread in today's world. I spend every holiday alone, crying as many others do.

Something must change. If we write enough about it and push the issue, our children will not be about to abuse us in this way.

My Daughter gets away with this behavior because she is an Attorney and no matter how I beg to see them, it's always no.

Is there some way to help us.

Thank you for listening!
