Celebrate World Elder Abuse Day on June 15th
Even though he’s pushing 80, Ed Asner has been flying high recently, starring as the comical curmudgeon “Carl Fredericksen” in the Disney/Pixar animated film “UP.” For his next project, Asner has his feet planted firmly on the ground in a new direct-to-DVD documentary Saving Our Parents available now at www.SavingOurParents.com.
Hosted and narrated by Ed Asner, Saving Our Parents is a “must see” to help protect and educate the public, seniors and their adult children about safe and healthy aging. This National Mature Media Award-winning film also features information and insights from radio host/author Michael Reagan (adopted son of late President Ronald Reagan), LAPD Chief William Bratton, Los Angeles Director of Public Health, Dr. Jonathan Fielding and other experts.
Based on their own harrowing experience, Executive Producers, Debby & Ken Bitticks, are out to inspire and empower families to care for their loved ones in their golden years and have made Saving Our Parents available for families, health care professionals, caregivers, hospital staff and government agencies worldwide.
Popular intergenerational organizing expert, author Dorothy Breininger, had this to say about the project, “one elderly person is victimized every 2.7 minutes,” and recommends Saving Our Parents to all of her audiences. Featuring real-life events, Saving Our Parents is a startling demonstration of the potential pitfalls facing today’s aging adults. Bitticks adds, “This is a compelling documentary exposing scams and the devious crooks that prey on seniors.”
