一位名叫Manny的80岁老人写信给Rappler的建议专栏，解释他希望带回他喜欢的护理员Angel，因为他的孩子们在他不知情的情况下将她撤换了。

Manny在妻子去世六周后于75岁时中风，他表示这并未影响他的心理健康或言语能力。他需要时使用手杖或轮椅，但不依赖子女的经济支持，尽管他很感激他们给的任何“baon”。80岁时，他的子女坚持雇佣护理员，他只喜欢Angel，她是一位没有正式资质的年轻女性，比其他人更愿意倾听他说话。Angel三个月前突然离开，没有解释；Manny后来得知是他的孩子们让她离开的，她回到了Nueva Ecija省。此后他试用了三位其他护理员，但仍对她们不满意。当他告诉子女想接Angel回来时，他们禁止了。Jeremy Baer在回应中质疑，为什么Manny神智清醒却允许这种干涉，并建议召开家庭会议来主张对自己生活的控制并设定界限。Dr. Margarita Holmes鼓励他如果可能直接联系Angel，强调作为成年男子他有独立的权利。她指出，护理员不仅满足身体需求，还满足社交需求，并引用哈佛受训治疗师Kasley Killam于2024年出版的《The Art and Science of Connection》一书，该书强调社交健康在幸福感中的作用。该专栏将这一情况框定为Manny与其子女之间潜在的权力斗争，Angel则成为无辜的棋子。
