Here at Focused Solutions Consuling LLC we are all about empowerment. Now, we just read about a really great idea to empower the very young and the very old, by putting a retirement home together with a preschool. In this case, not only did the older generation feel less lonely as they now seem to have found a new “place” life, by teaching the next upcoming generation by passing on their experiences and exploring together! And of course the children learn many life lessons here as well, about the elderly and the aging process, I guess though that those precious youngsters do not even realize yet what amount of joy and sense of belonging they bring to members of a generation that does in general not get the attention it needs and truly deserves. This is amazing, and hopefully this idea can catch on in more places.
