[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure this is the right comparison. The issue is that as people age they are more like toddlers who understand the world around them and have opinions on what they like/don't like and want to do. At the same time, they don't have full control of their physical capacities and they may also have impaired judgment.[/quote] This. Though toddlers have the advantage of being portable in a way elderly people are not. When a toddler has a tantrum, you can pick them up and exit the public setting they are disrupting. When Grandpa starts his sexist/homophobic/racist/xenophobic diatribe, the police might need to be called to remove him. The only option is not to take them anywhere that is necessary.[/quote]
