[quote=Anonymous]Hmm, interesting idea. I think the "Asian way" is also idealized. In the Asian country I lived in, there were swathes of towns that contained just the elderly and the very young. Once the very young grew older, they would leave too. They would maybe send back money for the elderly, who would be left alone and maybe visited once a year. This isn't true for everywhere but this leaves millions of elderly living this lonely experience without the "western" fallback of facilities for them.[/quote]
