In Western society, the elderly are perceived as expired and left to retirement homes. Children who break with their parents continue their lives alone and perceive themselves as individuals. However, it is not only the elderly who are left to nursing homes in these societies, but their accumulation of knowledge is wasted here.
In recent years, the demand for nursing homes in our society has started to increase. The children, who looked at their old parents and waited for their prayer, passed away from life. Today's children, who look at life with a financial focus, see old age as a loss of power and are looking for a solution to keep their elderly parents out of their lives.
In old age, a person has a physical loss of power. However, it is at the summit in terms of knowledge, experience and experiences. In Islamic culture, a special space was opened for the elderly and their knowledge, experience and knowledge were shared. But today we see that the necessary sensitivity is not shown.
Despite societies that have become vulnerable to assimilation, Japanese society does not compromise its local culture. Japanese people who care about family ties take the elderly into their homes and enable young people to benefit from their experiences. The educators, who believe that the young person who establishes intimacy with their elderly parents will have the opportunity to develop values such as empathy, patience and respect, give an important place to the elderly individuals in education.
The Japanese think that the wisdom of the elderly is strong, and they provide a space for young people to grow under this tree of wisdom. Under the guidance of parents and educators, young people enjoy spending time with the elderly and have the opportunity to benefit from their knowledge and experience. This not only allows young people to gain family values, but also prepares the ground for a love bond between the two generations.
In Japanese culture, family relations are seen as part of education, and children have the opportunity to internalize cultural values by spending quality time with family elders. The youngster, who has studied and has a profession, is successful not only in business life but also in family and social relations.
Japanese families attach great importance to the child's personal skills and language of communication. When the child makes a mistake, the parent tells him that this behavior is not a positive one and that he speaks from the language the child understands. The child, who develops a secret language in his relationship with his parents, understands what they mean by body language and tries to improve his condition. In order to ensure a strong communication and cultural transfer between the two generations, the children spend enough time with their families.
Breaking ties with their roots, Islamic societies first began to lose their spiritual power and then their resistance. Concessions first began in a family that kept individuals together. The family became smaller and the elderly, who gave power to the family with their knowledge and experience, were left to nursing homes. Spousal relationships turned away from the axis of love and turned into competition. Elderly people who were in abundance of our homes were left to nursing homes, and children who were joyful in our homes were left to nurseries. The house was empty and generations could not escape the vortex they fell into.
