Answer:

ancient Greeks don't care to mentally ill people whereas due to moral treatment movement, now care should be provided to mentally ill people.

Explanation:

The ancient Greeks who were marked with mental illness were often avoided, locked up, or sometimes put to death due to their severe dangerous behaviour towards normal people while on the other hand, moral treatment movement of the eighteenth century provides treatment to the mentally ill people and also provides care to these people in order to adapt their environment.
