Often, the aged parent represents wisdom or the value of respecting the past. It also allows the author to contrast the "old days" with a problem a certain younger character is having in the present. Authors frequently use such comparisons in a drama-- youth versus age, old versus new, modern versus traditional, etc. Also, some authors use aged parents to probe emotions their children might feel-- for example, some children feel guilt or obligation or resentment or love and admiration (or all of the above) towards their parents, and the complex interplay of emotions can advance the plot in a drama.
