Nollywood actress and producer Etinosa Idemudia<\/strong> has urged people who live far from their parents to stay in touch with them and make time to check on them often.<\/p>\n Abia Radio News<\/strong> reports that she shared this message on social media while talking about how many parents feel when their children grow older and move away, especially to other countries.<\/p>\n According to her, most adults become busy with work, marriage and raising their own families, but this should not make them forget the parents who raised them.<\/p>\n Etinosa explained that many parents have children with the hope that they will not face old age alone.<\/p>\n However, things do not always turn out that way, as distance and new responsibilities sometimes cause children to drift away.<\/p>\n She added that parents may feel lonely when their children are far apart from them, even if they understand that life has taken them in new directions.<\/p>\n She wrote: \u201cIf you and your siblings live very far from your parents, please try to check on your parents regularly. I know you are busy with your new life, career and kids, but don\u2019t forget when they were Young, they gave birth thinking \u201cwhen I\u2019m old, I will not be lonely. My children will surround me\u201d, but reality hits different, reality hits hard\u2026 Especially old ones with children abroad<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cAt the end of the day, sometimes, having kids because you want company in future doesn\u2019t always pan out that way.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Nollywood actress and producer Etinosa Idemudia has urged people who live far from their parents to stay in touch with them and make time to check on them often.
