We take getting together for granted when we can just hop in the car and visit. It is often a lonely world for the elderly and we should all try to facilitate safe social networking for them.

I've gotten to some really good friends and have met some in person and even traveled out of the country with one. There is no reason to be terribly lonely with computers handy all hours. My hobby has also helped me make some very good friends who I have have shared a very important times with.. Yahoo groups is one place to begin as is a Google search for hobbies. It makes a world of difference to life!

Software enables the adult child to go on the elder's computer and be virtually present, to sign up for the service, to post a profile, etc. The elder has to have rudimentary computer skills, but not much else. We're helping my 86 year old mother-in-law do this now. She joined JDate (Jewish dating) and has had a lunch date and several inquiries. She needs company, as she's lonely, being widowed about a year ago.. This takes some doing and patience, but it is a hopeful alternative to sitting around waiting for something to happen.
