Holy wow. I can assure you that this is NOT what the majority of Americans who send elders to nursing homes think. It’s more often to simply avoid the burden; laziness rather than spite. Other major reasons are because their families aren’t properly equipped to take care of them. E.g. physically, mentally, financially, or non-existent family members.
