Please help to publicize elder abuse cases. Laws have to be enacted to protect the rights of older people. It is a human rights issue. Do not be complacent. We can only speculate on the causes of elder abuse cases. Get involved! We should not sensationalize.
Imagine the pains of getting abused in your twilight years. Stripped of money and dignity. According to many published researches majority of elder abuses occurred in private homes and are perpetrated by the spouse or adult children.
We are outraged by child abuse, violence against women and other abuses and violations of human rights. Let us be outraged. Let us be united in our efforts to help the voiceless.
Check out the various links listed here or on other EA blogs. We need your help.
