Man life should be divided into two halves. First, with his health he earns wealth. The moment he hits 40, in order to survive, he spends his "accumulated" wealth to retain his health.
In the early stage, he has no time to take care of his children. The moment they get "settled" they have no time to look after their parents.
Thanks to technology, one can set funeral pyre on fire just by clicking the mouse and shed two or three drops of tears (in the meantime, conduct an ensemble ohhhhhhhh papa! ohhhhhhhhhh mama in chorus that would pep up the background literally) then carry on with their works. Just because of shedding tears and to safeguard from getting flu( thesedays, even ordinary flu is considered as "swine flu") gulp down one or two pegs of whisky and forget about your worries.
Similar thing awaits us in another 20-30 years in an much more advanced version. Remember ! Newton's 3rd Law.
