The US Census indicates that 16.2% of Americans are now over 65. As I visit my mother-in-law, father-in-law, and my mother, each living in assisted living facilities, it seems to me that the numbers are deflated. I hope we can find better ways to live in our generation and those to come than the institutionalized settings we have our parents living in. Although I believe it will be very difficult to turn around, I wish for the extended family setting that we used to have and still see in other countries.
