Personally, I don't think it's unfilial to send your parents to a nursing home.
Nowadays, everyone is facing great economic pressure, middle-aged people must work hard to make a better life for their parents and children, but nowadays most of the old people do not want to live with their children, and their children do not have the time to take care of the old people, so they can only send the old people to the nursing home.
Some elderly people are so old that they have lost the ability to take care of themselves, and even have fecal and urinary incontinence, and a nursing home with caregivers to take care of the elderly is actually a good choice.
There are also some elderly people who have lost the companionship of their partners, so they can only live alone in their twilight years, and if they are left alone at home, they will be very lonely. In this case, it is better to send the elderly to the nursing home, where there are many old people of the same age, parents may be able to find like-minded partners, usually with other elderly people playing chess, chatting, but also to regulate the boring life.
With the development of the society and the soundness and perfection of the elderly institutions, it has become a trend for the elderly to go into the elderly institutions. Send the elderly into the elderly institutions is not a manifestation of unfiliality, on the contrary, it is a kind of filial piety for the elderly to consider. We should not dismiss it as unfiliality, but should correctly recognize and slowly accept this way.
After all, filial piety is to make the old man happy, comfortable, real filial piety, not hanging on the lips, not in the eyes of others, but to respect the wishes of the old man, choose a really suitable for the old man and the old man is willing to live.
