We are talking POST SHTF.

So we are still going to have elderly in our society so what are going to do with them?

One of the major reasons for our elderly ending up in hospital and or car homes today is because we cannot cope them, we do not know how to handle them.

So question is how would you cope POST SHTF with the elderly?

great posts above. I agree with the points made, especially being difficult subject, but neccessary.

Part of the reason we cant cope with them is that we dont have the time in our busy lives of working and running around. In the scenario presented, there may be folks available to help. Some teens for example could make good companions for elderly with dimentia.
