If your parents are above 55 & are not working, how do they stay busy/active without usual work ?
What do they do exactly?
Give 'em some one to look after 😌
For that you need someone 🤌
They already have ME to look after and I think they could have done a better job at it
Mom takes tuitions, Dad has become a social butterfly. Both have their own walking groups and they go for walks twice daily. Other than that they travel frequently, chat with other relatives, take lots of naps haha
Last year mom enrolled herself in English speaking classes and now practice it. Now, she has started learning how to operate computer nd internet. Later she plans to learn painting.
She is 68 and sometimes I admire her for her undying learning attitude even at this age.
I too want my parents to learn English, where to start?

What a bunch sad fcks here who say get them a child to raise.
Sit with them, get to know their hobbies and interests they couldn't pursue because they were busy raising you. Enable them with tech, resources, whatever they need to pursue their wishes.
Had a kid and now they are busy with him
@boredcoder this is the dream, end of the day :)
Are u looking for ideas to make ur parents busy? It’s pretty random but some things stick like taking walk, tv serials, on call family support
looking for ideas to keep them active
I make my father to do all household chores like buying stuff and take any order to make sure he is walking and climbing stairs to make him active. For mom I push her to try new dishes. Now she watches cooking videos and try them. But I feel it is not enough. I think putting mom in some sort of tuition like English or computer would be nice and father to some gym for basic exercise would be nice. This is what I will be doing after 1 year.
Gardening, looking after pets . Also retirement age is 60 so still working.
What about a single parent guys?? I have my mother who's mostly alone at home. Pls help
Enroll her as a mentor in parenting classes. Young couples with a toddler will need their massive experience in raising a kid.
Can you give more details please? This sounds interesting
My parents are set to retire in about half a decade. Dad knows finances quite well, so thinking of getting him active on the stock market, plus act as a personal consultant for tax purposes, for apartment people. Mom stitches quite well - most of her dresses are those she stitched herself. Trying to convince her to make clothes for the apartment ladies and make a mini biz out of it.
