In America, the old are neglected.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I wouldn't say they're neglected, but everybody is going to grow old and we should be looking after the older generation more than we do at the moment.
In America, people rarely stay in the town where they grew up, rarely stay in close proximity to their parents throughout their lives. You rarely find parents in their old age being taken care of by their children.
America is a young country with an old mentality.
The old problems - love, money, security, status, health, etc. - are still here to plague us or please us.
The elderly are all someone's flesh and blood and we cannot just shut them in a cupboard and hand over the responsibility for taking care of them to the state.
I get all fired up about aging in America.
That the poor are invisible is one of the most important things about them. They are not simply neglected and forgotten as in the old rhetoric of reform; what is much worse, they are not seen.
People need to know that they are not alone, that they have not been abandoned; but that there is One Who loves them for what they are, Who cares about them.
America's Older Americans add great value to our Nation.
America, in all its institutions, whether it be the family or government, has forgotten and neglected its children.
