HO CHI MINH CITY, Oct. 23 (Xinhua) -- With improved living conditions brought about by Vietnam's steady economic growth, more and more residents are slowly discarding parts of their traditional family values.


One of these is for children to let their parents live with them when they grow old to preserve family cohesiveness.


The Vietnamese often follow the dictum "when drinking water, think about the source nike air force 270 black gold for sale ," or "when eating the fruit, think about the grower."


This in essence stipulates that it is the responsibility of the children to take care of their parents when they grow old.


Older parents used to live with the family of either their sons or daughters.


But now there are more senior citizens who prefer to live in nursing homes or care centers for the aged.


Some of these senior citizens have complained that they are not being treated well by sons and daughters. Usually both husband and wife work so that the parents are left at home to fend for themselves.


More Vietnamese couple, especially if both are working, also prefers to have their parents live in nursing homes.


The move has raised some mixed reactions from society and the general public. Supporters argued that seen from a positive perspective, when living in the nursing home nike air force 270 gold standard for sale , the senior citizens often enjoy a better medical care than staying with children.


Usually, the aging parents are left alone in homes with nobody attending to their needs, which is dangerous especially if the parents are sick.


Le Dinh Lam, a 87-year-old resident in Hanoi, told Xinhua that he has five children including two sons. His wife and the eldest daughter died long ago nike air force 270 mens black hyper jade for sale , while the other four children are now in their sixties and fifties, and all had retired.


"I tried to live with each of my children's family for a period of time, but they are not well enough to take care of me. My grandchildren are also busy with their work. I felt so lonely at home and decided to live in this center," Lam said.


Lam said he is enjoying his stay at Phu Dong Seniors' Care Center, which is not far from his house in the downtown of Hanoi. The environment is quiet and clean nike air force 270 hyper jade for sale , the nurses are friendly, and they take good care of him and other old people.


"I have many buddies here. We kill the time by playing chess, reading books, watching television and other activities. My children come to visit me every weekend or during holidays," Lam said.


However nike air force 270 red white for sale , not so many old people could afford living in the nursing homes, like Lam, because the fee is rather high. On the average, it would cost one senior from six to eight million VND ( 300 to 400 U.S. dollars) per month, depending on their health condition.


This is less than the average pension of around three million VND that a retired state employee would receive monthly.


Vu Minh Luong nike air force 270 ream red for sale , director of the Phu Dong Seniors' Care Center, said that the center, located in an area of 10,000 square meters, can accommodate some 100 seniors at any given time. Some 40 nurses and other staff attend to the needs of the elderly inhabitants of the center.


"I know very well the traditional thinking and practice of the Vietnamese people who used to take care of their old parents by themselves at home. However nike air force 270 black purple for sale , when the center was established, and the number of registered old people has increased, I believe this model of caring for old people would become more .
