It is a common sight to see guys in their 50s and 60s taking their mothers around. We see them most often on the street supporting them with their arm. At a restaurant recently we were next to a guy with his mother. She looked about 85-90 and she had some health problems. He would come around the table and cut up her food for her.
Clearly this is an important value in Spanish culture and it is a good thing.
These men are just like Charlie who was so wonderful and helpful to our mom, Mildred.
She was so much fun to be with that it was a pleasure.
