responsible for the elderly. There are examples of nations, chiefly Asian countries like Japan, where old people are highly respected.
This
permeates all levels of
society
and translates to children and grandchildren being more willing to take on the burden of
care
,
as well as
more attentive doctors and better government-funded social welfare programs. All these measures combined not only have a tangible, daily impact but
also
shift the societal mindset from considering the elderly a nuisance to regarding them as a milestone in life that all must pass through, deserving of respect. In conclusion, the problems related to limited opportunities for looking after the elderly concern their level of
care
and can be combatted with a number of measures permeating multiple layers of
society
. Though unlikely, these reforms would evidence a core of human compassion.
