In many countries these days, elderly people often choose to live in nursing homes and not with their families.

In my opinion, this can be a really good idea as their needs can often be best met there.

First of all, a carefully-chosen nursing home can offer excellent care and facilities for an elderly person.

Secondly, many elderly people do not wish to be too dependent on their families.

On the other hand, some people believe that it should always be the family's responsibility to look after elderly relatives.

All in all, I believe that, while it is the choice of each family, it is often better for an elderly person to live in a carefully chosen nursing home.
