[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. None of the siblings are that interested in their inheritance (plus the inheritance will be split so many ways because there were a lot of children and grandchildren). Siblings A-E are all doing what they think is best out of love. [/quote] Whether it's avarice, or control, or whatever, it is flat out ridiculous to require adults at or close to retirement age to clean and do yardwork when there are more than ample resources to hire someone. As another PP said, aging in place is a legitimate discussion; household chores are not. Sibling E is right - her visits (and really, the visits of all the siblings) should be about visiting, not work. If the mother is so far gone that she really is insisting that her retirement aged children clean her house, that to me is more evidence that she should be in a home, regardless of whether she'll have a "fun experience."
