Abuse of children and older adults: uncanny parallels.
The violence around us seems to be growing. Daily we read or hear about children such as the 22-month-old girl who was found abandoned in a Chicago alley or a malnourished older adult living in squalor, while his or her adult child spends the parent's money. Can something be done?
