Solution
In our modern world we celebrate Grandparents Day on 1st October every year. Here we see a grandmother with her family, son, daughter and grandchildren. But no one talks to her and she is left alone. They are busy using their modern gadgets like the cell phones, tablets, laptops, I pad, earphones, etc. Poor old grandma is ignored by her own family, as all are talking, viewing, listening and playing with their gadgets. She feels alone even when her family is around her. In her old age she lives a lonely life, so she is not happy. It is our duty to see that our elders do not have a sad feeling and are happy always.
