DR program ‘Rugrats in nursing homes’ has got the danes to sit glued to the screen the last time. It is, however, not everyone is equally excited for the program.
According to the secretary-general of the Bibelselskabet Birgitte Stoklund is the program in which a number of kindergarten students visit the elderly in nursing homes, namely ‘immoral’.
In a post in Kristeligt Dagblad dishes she is a massive criticism of ‘the Rugrats in nursing homes’, which she thinks exploiting children to promote their health.
‘It is the instrumentalisation of man for the open screen. Put on the tip is the abuse of children, staged on state television,’ she writes, among other things in the post.
Birgitte Stoklund believe that people are an end in themselves, and that you must never use another human being as a means to achieve another goal. Precisely why criticise the she programme paragraph, where eight children aged four-five years over the four weeks to spend time in a nursing home together with the older people to see what effect it has on ones health.

‘How can it be immoral? The problem is the framework for the program: It is the doctor’s table. The old being examined and interviewed about their state at the start of the experiment. The intention of the whole is namely to improve the old man’s physical and mental state. It is, therefore, the children need to go to the nursing home. As a means to improve older people’s health,’ she writes in the post and continues:
‘There is no harm in the experiment. On the contrary. Both the children and the old are enjoying themselves. That comes even chickens out of the eggs in the incubator. The problem is that it accustoms us all to, that it is okay to use another human being as a means to improve one’s health.’
