Scrooge shows a negative depiction of old people, assuming they are always grumpy and lonely . This is the case in the movie, but it also shows us his past, present and future, which opens our eyes and makes us think about our actions and how they will affect us later in life.]]> 2020-02-04 23:30:43 UTC https://padlet.com/baldini2/nhoqz4d4vo0i/wish/440653108 baldini2 https://padlet.com/baldini2/nhoqz4d4vo0i/wish/440653969 Dementia is a fear common among people aging across the world.
