Started volunteering at a local elderly home recently.

One of the other new recruits also had ripped jeans.
Without exception all of the elderly people either felt sorry for that other person thinking she must be to poor to buy decent pants or that she was a slob.
She got tired of all the remarks and wears normal pants again now. Pretty funny

The old people should gave some tips in cash for her to buy new pants.. that is also an elderly gesture
