The abuse itself takes many forms, ranging from willful neglect to financial exploitation to physical attack. The families depicted come from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds. We see one loving niece who is pushed to the threshold of her patience by her aunt's increasingly difficult behavior and failing health. The younger woman finally recognizes her need for outside help to prevent an explosive situation. In another family a frail elderly couple is being financially exploited by their daughter and son-in-law. A painful court battle resolved the conflict. Still another situation involves an elderly Chinese immigrant in San Francisco who was deprived of his social security checks by his wife and adopted son until a community support network came to his assistance. A case of physical abuse by an alcoholic son is complicated by the mother's enduring love for her child. She is finally forced to turn to the judicial system for help. With great sensitivity, A House Divided portrays the emotional complexity of family relationships that can lead to abuse of the elderly. It shows the isolation and helplessness of the victims and the need for understanding and support by those who work with the elderly. 001355974 521__ $$aCollege. 001355974 521__ $$aAdult. 001355974 530__ $$aPreviously released as DVD. 001355974 533__ $$aElectronic reproduction.$$bAlexandria, VA :$$cAlexander Street Press,$$d2013.$$f(VAST: academic video online).$$nAvailable via World Wide Web. 001355974 546__ $$aIn English. 001355974 650_0 $$aOlder people$$xCare. 001355974 650_0 $$aOlder people$$xAbuse of. 001355974 650_0 $$aCaregivers$$xPsychology. 001355974 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001355974 7001_ $$aWright, Lyn.$$4pro$$4drt 001355974 7102_ $$aNational Film Board of Canada.$$4pro 001355974 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;1784910 001355974 901__ $$aASP1784910/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c25702$$tbiblio 001355974 905__ $$uadmin 001355974 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1355974$$pGLOBAL_SET 001355974 910__ $$aJB 2014-10-08 001355974 941__ $$a1003830915 001355974 944__ $$a1784910$$z1003830915 001355974 945__ $$aThe Whole World$$bCanada 001355974 950__ $$aFLON$$aVAND$$aVASS$$aSTSL$$aVSTR$$aDVDF$$cDVDF-ST$$cFLON-BF$$cVAST-BF$$cPVST-BF$$cPSYV-V1$$cVSTR-ST$$cEBAP-BF$$cPDAP-BF 001355974 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001355974 980__ $$aBIB 001355974 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001355974 983__ $$aOnline
