I love the way “take a break” is presented as an available option. I guarantee that for many caregivers it’s absolutely not.

Surely further privatizing health and elder care is the answer!
Our glorious president elect even leads by example, repeatedly recommending his nephew illegally euthanize a disabled son. If only we all had fathers like Trump Sr., to make us tough and hard men who will either 'succeed' (bankruptcy doesn't count!) or be driven to alcohol and suicide.
Can't have that filthy socialist communism infecting the minds of the young! /s
I'm have relatives in the elder care industry and I've been a caregiver myself. This options presented here are laughable.
Modern medicine has extended lifetimes so that people spend an extraordinary amount of their lives in a state where they are miserable and helpless. The less fortunate among us do not have the resources or the options to accommodate them and so spend years in desperation.
The effect of this list is to inspire guilt and feed despair in people beyond the end of their rope: some you're somehow not making it work, while apparently others are. You must be a bad person.
