Sad and humorous stories often hide the bitter old age of village women, especially if their health is poor and they cannot take care of themselves. And if they don't have good children or, as they say, by God's permission, they have to go around begging. They can end their life in adverse harsh highland weather tragically and without human help. They themselves often helped children into the world, but they also sometimes managed to cause considerable harm without cause; them and the people around them. However, the problems, which are much more visible in the countryside, do not escape either the city or today's era, which tries in vain to hide them.
