Abstract
Analyzing the text of “I eat with my mother every day”, the autobiographical records of an elderly man in his 60’s who took care of his mother in her 90’s with dementia for nine years in an apartment space, this researcher considers the beginning and difficulties of home care, psychological conflicts experienced in the process of caring, and the moments of mental maturity that occurred every now and then in the dragging time. In the first chapter of the main body, this study has found why the writer began home care and the fact that home care is such a difficult process that can be even said to a state of humanity way beyond the path of filial piety. In the next chapter, this study examines the processes in which respect for the mother disappears and only hatred remains within the conflict with her that has become a routine and the author’s cry coming from the inside. In the last chapter, this researcher looks into the process in which the author’s ego continues to mature within conflicts between the practice of filial piety and realistic problems. This study will serve as a reference for individuals in situations where they have to take care of their families.
