no this is unconstructive as it gets even worse than your example with special medical needs .. the way this evens out in that case is to expand the capacity of medical treatment such that they can provide acceptable intervention and monitoring for the special needs person.. A different angle is that somehow, in the West, the family unit has been morphed into something in the background.. many places in the world with dense populations rely on extended and long term family definitions to accommodate basic needs and special circumstances for individuals

I can now see that working, and needing to pay care workers much more to get enough willing participants is probably a good thing. I don't think we can rely on family or extended family any more. Even in countries with strong extended family and community support structures, people get left behind. And usually the people who need the most support, with mental illness or addiction or social problems driving others away.
