My suggestion is to let him be, at 100 he deserves to do whatever he wants to, if it's nothing, that's ok too.

Living to a 100 is a miracle into itself! Let him be, you can enjoy your life while he sleeps.

Oh my goodness, he’s earned the right to spend his time sleeping if he likes!

No matter how intelligent and educated, we need more sleep as we grow old. Leave him alone and live your own life. If I were a hundred years old, I’d be annoyed if my spouse wanted me to go to day care and bat balloons around a table or something equally stupid. I’m sure that what’s going on inside his head is way more interesting than that.

It always causes me to 🙄 when I read about how intelligent and educated an elder is, and who's "wasting his life" somehow by not inventing a cure for cancer at 100. Let the poor soul SLEEP! He doesn't have to be intelligent or educated at 100!

Let him sleep, “perchance to dream.”

There is nothing terrible about slowly winding down, content to have lived a full life.

Babies need a great deal of sleep. Very, very old people do, as well. Let him be.

I agree, old people sleep a lot like babies. And we rarely wake up sleeping babies . My Mom used to say you leave this world the same way you came. Bald , no teeth and in diapers. 😬😬
