Firms Help Workers Care for Parents

ABC News had this well-written article on how corporations are helping employees to care for their elderly parents with everything from "Support Groups at Toyota America to the Option at McGraw Hill to Add a Parent to Employee Health Care."

Excerpt:

"I consider elder care the new child care," said Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn. "When you look at what's happening to people my age, they're struggling to take care of their own kids. And at the same time, they want to make sure that their own parents are taken care of, too. What we saw in the '70s with child care, we're seeing in this decade with elder care."
