[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They need to downsize. When you cannot afford your lifestyle you do not have a choice. I think you should just say something along the lines of "I am sorry that I am not in a financial position to help them maintain their lifestyle, it is a good thing they have choices at this point in their lives." It sounds like you have a strong moral compass, keep that. [/quote] This. You need to put it back on your parents whenever relatives complain to you. "I am really sorry that I can't help them as much as they need help. They need to downsize so that they can better afford their bills. You can't maintain the same lifestyle after retirement, but they are lucky to have lots of choices on how to adjust."[/quote]
