Mom, Dad, Please Don’t Be Silly!

eople often understand about parents’ cry when their children mess up their parents’ life. But I almost never hear that people will understand about children’s cry when their parents mess up the children’s.

What would you do when your parents ill? A friend of mine, just call her name Fredlyn, recently has been complaining. Her old man sounds been sick. It’s not really bad, probably some kinda obese and arthralgia. But I assume that’s disturbing. Obese makes people lazy. And the joint-ache has been troubling that man from moving his arm.

According my colleague who cured him, the dad should stop eating purin. And quit smoking. Fredlyn has been helping to limit the diet at home. But the dad got furious, coz he felt been restricted from delicious foods.

As a doctor, I saw Fredlyn might’ve misunderstood about the diet. Actually it’s not about fully restriction from delicious food at all, but it’s just necessary to decrease the portion. But the big problem ain’t Fredlyn. The error point is her dad denies from making up the menu and quitting from cigar.

Fredlyn’s effort to treat her dad has been obstructed since last week the dad declared to quit the therapy. Briefly, the dad gave up from recovering. Fredlyn cried.

I understand what made Fredlyn sad. There’s no children who are happy to see their parents ill. That’s why children always try to keep their parents fit. The problem is, the parents decline healthy life.

I’m sure that Fredlyn ain’t the only one. There are lotta other children suffer coz their parents make too much scene. My mom has been sad coz her mom (my grandma) has been furious if her children (my mom, my uncles, and my aunts) are not around her at 10 am, though it’s office hour. My dad’s been upset coz his mom sacked an housekeeper that we sent for her, though without the housekeeper my grandma won’t be able to clean up the house well. I’ve been also mad at my dad coz recently he didn’t wanna quit snacking chips at midnight, ignoring the fact that he’s diabetic.

We, the children, wants our parents reserved, fit, and being understanding. But parents refused from listening to the solution that we create. Meanwhile, they can’t give better solution for their own good, either. In fact, since Fredlyn’s dad got ill, all he’s been doing is just grousing her around. My mom’s mother has been frustrated of loneliness, that makes her often phoning her children’s office, only to call them home. Last week someone stupid has broken the water pipe at town, made the PAM must switch off water from streaming to houses. That made my grandma had to bail the well alone coz she had sacked the housekeeper. And now I should insulinize my dad. Briefly, when parents mess up, that’s when children are annoyed.

If only children are disaffected, they should’ve been yelling, “Mom, Dad, please don’t be silly!” Parents don’t wanna understand, as they ill, children gets troubled. It’s hectic, and it’s sad. Parents may say to the children, just mind their own business, no need to care about parents, at least parents will die coz they’ve been aging. They never care that as parents die, children gets sad coz nobody will pray for them anymore.

I understand, as someone gets old, problems come up. There’s degradation of organ system’s function at body. There’s degradation of ability to keep their selves from accident. There’s degradation of ability to thinking. But after I saw lotta people start to grouse much as they get old, I’ve started to wonder, as we’re getting older, is there any degradation of mental to be a good person, too?
