Debbie Albert said: "Babies and elderly are ignored and placed in
institutions-- I think the rise in nursing home population can be directly
correlated to the increased use of day care.  If your parents didn't take
care of you, why would you want to take care of them?"

VERY good point.  On the other hand,  most of the elderly today were most
likely breastfed, so they may be living longer than the future generations
will. This may mean fewer of US will live long enough to be a "problem" to
our children.  Scary, huh?
