[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And are so sad that everyone is saving up for them? I get that in extreme medical cases it is required, but it seems so sad people are shoveled off to nursing homes with family so far away. I’m a first generation American, but I find this aspect of American culture different. Kids in other parts of the world do have their parents living with them at the end. They even die at home with their families around. I understand this may be too much for some people to handle given workloads and no one being home, but is this the only option?[/quote] I have extended family in one of these cultures. All the work falls to the woman (usually daughter in law) of the family. It may be nice for the elderly but it doesn’t seem like you can carve out much space as a caregiver. [/quote]
