**Ms. Chavez is simply stating that a solution must be found**.
She is advocating that Government must find a solution.
Clearly she has the resources to hire a qualified live-in caregiver and I wonder why she hasn’t considered it.
The fact that life expectancy has been extended by superior health care from birth to middle age - has not prepared families for the inevitable decline for the aged over 70.
When families consisted of parents, several children, aunts uncles, cousins - family members rotated the care of their elderly patriarchs & matriarchs (Japanese still do). It is a cultural thing - and we have lost that culture.
What evidence that was presented in the article leads you to that conclusion? I couldn't find any.

My family hasn't.
