Re: Was it the Right Thing to Do?
I think his dad did the right thing, specially if he does not depends on anyone financially.
My mom passed away a long time ago and my dad never re-married. Eventhough he lives with my brother but he is lonely. We take care of him but he misses my mom alot. He said to me that there are certain things/emotions you can only share with your spouse. At old age you need spouse for companionship. I would not have understand it at that time but now I do.
