Based on the reading, I can say that one
benefit of the program is that __________
 Daycare center: Institution that provides supervision
and care of infants and young children during the
daytime, particularly so that their parents can hold
jobs.
A retirement home : Residence for old people including
facilities for meals, gatherings, recreation activities, and some
form of health or hospital care.

First of all, I am of the opinion that many older people and younger people are in retirement homes and daycare centers
in the US because
• Nowadays the population of old citizens has increased. Plus, there are more people with full time jobs and for this
they cannot take care of their children.
• At present, more old citizens are rejected by their families and they ended up in the retirement homes. In addition to
that, I think more kids are in the daycare centers because both parents work because they need the money.

When it comes to Peru, I would say that

+ there are many elderly people/ not many elderly people in the retirement homes. Besides, I would say that there are
many kids/ not many kids in the daycare centers.

Finally, I would say that it is a good idea that kids visit retirement homes because this way

• Old people can interact with kids and have a good time
• Elderly people can tell children stories and have a good time
• Old people can feel useful , active and improve their mental health
• Children can learn valuable lesson on life from elderly people.
