If the condition of the health of your parents is such that
your presence is really needed, then you should not leave them.
If, however, there is some other relative who
could care for them, then you could help with the work in … and aid the friends
in establishing the Faith on a solid foundation there. - Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated 28
October 1955 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer; compilation: ‘Family Life’, prepared by
the Research Department of the Universal House of Justice, revised March
2008)
