Younger generations are concerned about the new lifespan they wonder if it will cause bankruptcy. We dismiss the older generations saying that kids are the future and they are the past which is a toxic mindset for both parties.

When seniors go into retirement homes they have to give up their hobby's. A resident of Mt.Pleasent told me how he had played piano all his life but had to give it up because it upset the other residents. Many seniors are put into retirement homes too early and from my visit to Mt.Pleasent I've found its not always the best option. When seniors are put into homes they are forgotten by society. They don't get opportunities to keep up with the outside world even if they wanted to. There are padlocks on the doors and most visitors are there to talk about health. When they need something they have to do long applications just to get it. A few people I talked to today told me how they needed medicine but their health care wouldn't provide it. In conclution, we need to focus on the happiness of everyone and not just the younger generations.
