YEAH Crowfeather hit Breezepaw and YEAH Crowfeather neglecting and emotionally abused him and YEAH Crowfeather rejected his ThunderClan kits for a long time and YEAH Crowfeather treated Nightcloud and Leafpool very poorly and YEAH he drove his son to the Dark Forest and YEAH he didn't spend time with Nightcloud even when their other kits died close to birth and YEAH he's generally absent at best and abusive at worst

The writing team AND the fandom DID say this. Crowfeather was abusive to his son and they all went "god. somehow this is all the nearest woman's fault."

i really dislike the idea that marginalized people "being mean" is a more pressing contributing factor to their oppression than the fact that bigoted societies are prone to rewarding people who choose to perpetuate bigotry

India’s Education System: A Right Denied, A Privilege Bestowed

Education is often hailed as the great equalizer, the ladder to social mobility, and the foundation of a prosperous nation. Yet, in India, this ladder seems to be missing several rungs. The sharp decline of 15 million school enrollments in 2023-2024 signals a crisis, not merely of access but of faith in the system itself. While educational institutions mushroom across the country, their effectiveness remains questionable, particularly for marginalized communities like Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs). Literacy rates among SCs stagnate at a dismal 66.1%, far below the national average. Higher education, which should be a beacon of progress, is alarmingly inaccessible—only three out of ten Indians make it to a university, a figure that lags behind global standards.

The issue of equal access to care for older people compared to the working population is complex and raises significant challenges.

Here are some things to consider

Access to care and age-related discrimination 

There are concerns about age discrimination in health care.

Some studies suggest that older people may not receive the same treatments or interventions as younger patients, particularly in resource-limited settings.

Age stereotypes can influence medical decisions, sometimes leading to an underestimation of the health needs of older people.

Factors influencing access to care

Comorbidities

Older adults often have multiple health problems at the same time, which can complicate treatment and require more complex care.

Fragility

Frailty, a decrease in physiological reserve, can make older adults more vulnerable to complications and limit treatment options.

Geographic access

Older adults living in rural or remote areas may have limited access to specialists and health services.

Socio-economic factors:  Economic inequalities can also influence access to care, particularly for expensive or non-reimbursed treatments.

Developments and improvements

Efforts are being made to improve access to care for the elderly, particularly through the development of geriatrics, a medical specialty dedicated to the elderly.

Telemedicine and tech-age technologies can help improve access to home care and reduce geographic inequalities.

Awareness campaigns aim to combat age-related discrimination and promote a more equitable approach to health care.

Tech age as an asset

The aim of the tech age is to facilitate home care and relieve pressure on hospitals.

This allows elderly people to maintain a certain autonomy, and makes it easier to monitor the progress of their health.

In conclusion, although challenges persist, progress is being made to improve access to care for older people. It is essential to continue to promote an equitable and personalized approach to care, taking into account the specific needs of each individual.
