@Ferise1 Japan is already telling their elderly to get used to human pillows or robots to keep them company in old age

That is sooooooo disturbing.

That’ll sure bring down the suicide rate 🫩

@Thrust suicide doesn’t have the same stigma there so their rates will only rise . (Did I misinterpret sarcasm ?- I do that a lot in texts ). Their birth rates are the disturbing part

It is better than the present situation where older folks are sent to nursing homes and forgotten.

@HoeBag agreed. And they refuse to let Chinese in to care for their elderly also

I worked at a Japanese news network for years. If they fail at a major task they are almost expected to commit hari kari

@Thrust death before dishonor . They really internalize stuff.
