I'm the youngest of 4 and the most introverted. If she lives with someone, I'm probably last in line. We always get along but I just don't feel like I'm the best choice. If she lives with any of the other 3, she gets to see some of her grandchildren more often. I wouldn't refuse tho.

no way. I don't hate my parents. putting your parents in a nursing home is probably the single worst thing about american culture if I had to pick one

Yes. If you need babysitting 24/7 I cant provide that I gotta work. Besides they chose to have kids - I didnt choose to have the responsibility to babysit elderly people. I'm not doin that

But there are also those parents that spent their whole life trying to force their failings onto their kids or physically abused them. Those ones are just getting what they earned. --- Name checks out "Stupidity is a spectrum, and we're all on it" - OfDustandBone ... Copied to Clipboard!

I already told my grandmother that my home is available if she can't live independently. My mom would get the same treatment. I'm not sure how it would work out with my dad since he's in another state, but I do what I can to help him.

long term care = elderly prison (no offense to all).
it's how i view that. some people don't have a choice but it's the best option for some (if don't have the time). --- Explorers In The Further Regions Of Experience, demons to some, Angels To Others: Pinhead ... Copied to Clipboard!

looks like most WON'TI laugh at the young people who think they might have a choice. When your older relative becomes violent, can no longer feed themselves, consistently tries to run away, or can't use the bathroom alone then sometimes you don't have a choice. Hell, most of the time you don't have a choice. --- END OF LINE ... Copied to Clipboard!

She's still somewhat self-sufficient but I've been increasingly taking care of my mom for a couple of years now and will probably be wiping her butt soon. I couldn't bring myself to put her in a home.
