When we are talking about family, we mean people who live under one roof and connected. There are children themselves who do not live in a family even if their parents have died or because their parents have not been saved from some disaster or war These children raise themselves to the supervision of relatives. They grow up with the lack of maternal embrace and caress. They must therefore draw strength from their environment, love and affection to grow and become useful people in society. Apart from these, there are also people who were unable to have children. These people when they grow old, unable do whatever they want, they feel sadness, pain, and feel useless.

In both cases we see that to be a complete and happy family must be committed by parents or children. Unfortunately, things do not come to life pleasant for everyone.

Kathrin Children without parents and elderly without children are the same scary and despertly.The children need love, care and these are included in the family.Without parents the children would be unhappy and doomed to solitude. All but need a calm and safe enviroment .That's why elderly without children to love them and stand by them would have been equally unhappy as children without parents. But we all need a peaceful and secure environment. So for that, we should love and stand by the elderly without children just as children without parents. Is a reciprocal relationship of love and understanding. If one of these two factors do not exist, then the relationship between parents - children, children - parents, damaged and break the chain of the family. Children need their parents and older people need in over their children.

======================================= There are so many children that never had their parents left to institutions,! Did anyone ever thought that these children feel without a model, without a maternal caress to ease the pain or not people that shouldnt ever hurt them and will argue whatever happens in life? Those children who have parents and are more easily lured into trouble. In my opinion, children without families are more sensitive and more emotionally The issue of older people without children should alert us all, because they didnt ever feel like a parent. (Although I do not know much about this because I am still a child. ) Being a good parent, he has good and the bad. For examble: you're always in anxiety if your child had read, if eaten, to worry about his upbringing, afraid of anything might happen to him. But all these are forgotten in an "I love you!" That's it! You do not have any other need just to know that they love you and care about you! But in recent years a large proportion of older suffering from depression because they just had no child to show his love ...!

There are adults without children. These people must learn that some children are waiting for parents to orphanages. They must also learn that in order to finish as a human must born children. Some children in orphanages are desperately waiting for some parents. Some adults can not have children so I will advise them to adopt a child from the orphanage.
