We as a society seem to have lost our respect for our older folk,this could be due to housing design affording more privacy to home owners ,so chatting over the fence now is not the norm.But in certain ethnic groups the aged seem to be integrated more with the family circle, you don’t here of incidents like this involving these groups.
We recently moved and while giving the car its annual wash ,the neighbour across the way came out into her front garden.After a short chat i found out that she hadn’t spoken to any one in the street for TWO MONTHS.She sees her self as a hindrance, at a sprightly 90 years old she relies on no one,so i can only assume that they fear she may become reliant on them.

can of worms duly opend 😀
im off to make sweeties now 😡

Dose that pick count as sheep worrying. 😮 😀

She is to blame. If she was all there, then all she had to say was I’m a little hungry, better eat – oopps no money, better get some.

Her family could have visited, but they didn’t, they could have called to check up, so either they did not care about her (which I think) or they thought she’d be alright and capable.

May be she is to blame, but pride and her illiteracy probably took over.
as for family i assume they wont take as much time visiting the solicitors.

THE POST MAN for not knocking with her mail……
THE COUNCIL for being incompetent….
THE FAMILY for not visiting….
THE NEIGHBOURS for not being neighbourly…….
SOCIETY FOR NOT GIVING A S**T….
