"The authors have put 10 questions to the European Commission. However, intergenerational solidarity is mentioned in just one – the second from last. In order for the problem to be fully understood, I would like to add some more questions.
A moment ago, we were talking about how the European Commission can influence the Member States. Why does the European Commission not suggest to the Member States that they should value the care provided by family members to older, incapacitated people? Why, if a family member is looking after a relative, is that family member not financially rewarded and provided with health and social security cover and able to return to the workplace when the period of care comes to an end, just like a woman after maternity leave? Why are men and women who display intergenerational solidarity discriminated against in our society?
If we tried to eliminate this discrimination within the Union, we would have a far larger number of happier and more satisfied inhabitants."@en1
