AN ELDERLY couple in Singapore who gave up their duplex to their
son ended up homeless after he chased them out of the house, Sin
Chew Daily reported on Thursday.
The couple now call the staircase of a school their home.
The man, who gave his surname as Lim, was a manager before he
retired. He has a son and a daughter who live in Jurong.
Relating his ordeal to a secretary of the school, Mr Lim said he
and his wife decided to give their duplex home to their son as a
wedding gift about two years ago.
The couple thought that they could live in the house with their
son. He, however, decided to sell the property for RM960,000 to buy
another condominium. Mr Lim and his wife were then sent off to live
with their daughter.
After a year, the daughter decided that they were no longer
welcome and banned them from touching her children.
The couple could not enter the house after their daughter
changed the locks to the house.

It's so sad, don't understand why people chose to bully their
parents when they are running out of time to spend with their
parents soon.
