Parents are the only people in the world whom we cannot repay for their gift of life to us. There is our mother who carries us in her womb for almost nine months and who gave us birth.
From the time of our birth, it is our mother who give to us sustenance and nourishment, and her loving tender care. From our infancy to the time that we learn how to walk and take our first few steps there is our parents to help and to guide us all the way.
Not only did our parents provided for us our basic human needs: food, shelter and clothing but above all their immense love and care for us.
For all the good things that our parents have given and done to us we must always be thankful, not only to be thankful, but to have not only a deep sense of gratitude, but an eternal sense of gratitude as long as we live.
We will not be what we are today where it not for the loving hands of our parents. The saddest thing that could ever happen to us is if someday we forget to appreciate all the good things our parents have done to us.
Although we cannot truly repay our parents for what they have done to us (for sure they are not expecting anything in return), the most important part of our parents lives where we can show our gratitude is during the sunset years of our parents lives—when they are already old or nearing old age.
That is where I think we can really of great help to our parents. This is the stage of their life where our parents needed us the most—when they are already weak, sickly, and need patience and understanding and someone to be there at their side.
It is the sunset years of our parent’s life that we should never ever let them down.

From your post I can tell that you are a good son and you love your parents very much. It is good, and all sons and daughters should love their parents especially when they are already old.
They do not expect so much from their children, only love and care from them.
Yes, it is not only morally and religiously right to love our parents but it is an innate human nature to love our parents as well.
Respect for our parents and respect for the elders is the most natural thing in any culture I think.
Loving and caring for our elderly parents is the rule I think rather than the exception.
Even in the animal kingdom, the love and care of the parents to its offsprings is evident and I think it works both ways from offsprings to parents.
If in the animal kingdom (we consider animal to be move by instinct only? so they say) such thing exists (love and care), with more reason for us human beings to love and care for our parents.
