Yes, but… by A. Yvonne Mendenhall http://thegreenhouseproject.org/an-administration-for-community-living-yes-but/#comment-1668 A. Yvonne Mendenhall Sat, 12 May 2012 16:16:12 +0000 http://thegreenhouseproject.org/?p=3141#comment-1668 I so agree with your comments--pairing aging with disability is inappropriate and regretful. People of all ages have disabilities and many people of all ages are fit and well with few limitations. Again, I agree with your point regarding the elderly becoming a commodity, but then what can we expect since marketers have made ALL ages a commodity? At least it's equal treatment! My husband and I live in a community where it is the "norm" to move to a CCRC, of course designed by non-elders and run by "them" for "us". Our neighborhood has formed an Aging in Place Aging in Community project--but we have yet to convince the seniors involved that they are valuable as members of a diverse community and should consider that contribution a worthwhile reason to age in their home in their neighborhood. Your projects and your thoughts are so solid and so simple. Thank you for encouraging the awareness and stretching us all to think a little further and deeper.

They have accumulated all of life's wisdom from living full lives. They have all this time on their hands to share themselves and their wisdom with who? Who else but children see no wrinkles or decline, but get the face time that their parents do not have. Two populations desperately needing each other, giving life to each other for free.
