		<description>I always think that why parents have to give all their properties and money to their children? It&#039;s rightfully their money and we as the children should not hope for that... Instead, we should try our best to take care of them and provide them with whatever they need. 20 years of upbringing is not easy...they sacrifice a lot for us le... Cheers for our parents~~!!

&lt;em&gt;Cheers :)&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Sometimes there is also another side of the coin. Some old folks will make life on earth hell for you ... I guess it is not their choice, for some their mind degenerate.

&lt;em&gt;Many would agree with you about this unfortunately &lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>reading this is sad, but a reality. i hope he learns to make the most of what he has now, not save what he has to leave to his children, his children can manage, but he deserves to be happy. he can sell what he has and get care for himself if the country does not support healthcare for the elderly, it may sound strange, but he is very right, his kids have their lives too, it is great if his kids turn back to him and take care of him, but if they don&#039;t, he is prepared.

&lt;em&gt;He is a wonderful dad&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Not to worry too much. It starts from now, get prepared and grow togehter with our children.
Whatever you are doing now, you will get it in the future.

&lt;em&gt;It is not easy to b a parent. To b both a disciplinarian n a caring parent.. it sometimes conflicts.. the roles i mean&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>he got money, so why dont he give an allowance to his daughter to look after him and to help here with her expenses? why wait till he is dead for her to get the money? and even when the will is read out, the daughter who looks after him do not get more than the other children. i often think it strange why people dont give the children who look after them the money now whilst they are still alive.They ahve to pay someone to look after them anyway, so why not give it to the daughter or son who lets u stay and look after you?

&lt;em&gt;In this particular case, the whole family is relatively comfortable the finances i mean.. so money doesnt really matter&lt;/em&gt;</description>
