摘要：
In India, the aged prefer to live with their children. Sons consider it their duty to look after their aged parents, and they do not allow them to be sent to old-age homes. The joint family is the predominant householdform in rural and urban areas, and even in the slums. But when the elderly do not have family members to carefor them, old-age homes are their last resort. However, the demand for spaces in these homes far exceeds supply. © 1997.
