Granny dumping

Granny dumping is when someone abandons an elderly person, like a grandma or grandpa, in a public place, away from their home and without any help or support. This is done because the person who abandoned them may not want to take care of them anymore or may not have the means to provide proper care. It is a very bad thing to do because elderly people need lots of care and support, especially if they cannot take care of themselves. They can get lost, scared, or hurt if they are left alone in a strange place, and it is not nice to leave someone you love in such a situation. It is important to treat our grandparents with love and respect, and if someone cannot take care of them, they should find help from a proper authority or organization instead of just abandoning them.
