    It is not only a question of who is responsible for very young children. There is no longer anyone home to care for adolescents and the elderly. There is no one around to take in the car for repair or to let the plumber in. Working families are faced with daily dilemmas: Who will take care of a sick child? Who will go to the big soccer game? Who will attend the teacher conference?
    —Fran Sussner Rodgers (20th century)

    this is the night, and this the happy time
    When the tinned milk of human kindness is
    Upheld and holed by radio-appeal.
    —William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)
