Yes, but it's just a different culture. To westernized countries, we take pity on the sick and mentally deficient, we look after them and generally make sure thier needs are met (now, it hasn't always been that way, quite recently for some countries) and they live as happy and fulfilled a life as possible.

Even today in the US, many still look upon the mentally ill with contempt. There's still that stigma attached, particularly to those that need more intensive care.
