lpv:translated text	"This report highlights an issue that is increasingly important in Western countries, considering the additional work that women have traditionally done in society and the fact that this could get worse in the context of an inverted demographic pyramid. As well as these issues, it is also important to consider that women’s life expectancy is higher than that of men and continues to increase. While this, in itself, is a positive, it often means an increasing number of women have to look after themselves later in life. It is common today for an adult woman to care for her children, parents and in-laws; later, she cares for her grandchildren, her mother and her mother-in-law; and later still she is alone, widowed and with children who are distant because of the extreme mobility that characterises contemporary societies, with no one to look after the woman who looked after everyone else. I voted in favour of this report because it calls attention to this issue, because it points out means of monitoring the situation, and because it advocates intervention in this area."@en1
