Japan's Aging Shut-Ins Are a Problem!Added:
Japan's hikikomori crisis is getting older. A new survey found that the average age of Japan's shut-in has risen to 37 years old. And over 43% are into their 40s, and some are even in their 50s and 60s. These people all mainly rely on elderly parents for support, with some of their parents now into their [music] 80s or even 90s. So, what would you do to get these people out of the house and back into work? Or is it simply just too late that these people in their 50s and 60s are just stuck being a hikikomori for the rest of their lives?
