[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People also worked from home or relatively close by, and households had many more members that could take turns watching someone. I totally think modern society has a problem with not intrinsically valuing the elderly the way older cultures did, but so many aspects of our current lives make it much harder to take care of elders without burning out. We should have a law where all office jobs can have a mandatory WFH option. [/quote] People on DCUM always think they have the hardest life. Caring for an injured person while living in a bog with no running water, no indoor plumbing, no wheelchair, or smooth surfaces, no pain medicine. That's not hard! Only DCUM life could possibly be hard. [/quote] They had medicine. Medicine comes from plants, you know. A few examples: Aspirin comes from the willow tree. Clove has been used to relieve pain in dentistry. Penicillin comes from mold. [/quote]
