[quote=Anonymous]I would hate to have to rely on my spouse if I were to become enfeebled or had alzheimers or some other debilitating condition. This based on how she treats our special needs child and some other things I have observed over the years. This is certainly not conducive to a health relationship. I guess one solution is to divorce. But that is not without problems since there are children involved. I imagine a lot of wives feel this way when they complain about their husbands not helping around the house. Do they ever worry about what would happen if they had to rely on their husband as a caretaker? I'm not asking for advice on whether or not I should worry about relying on her as a caregiver. I have years of personal experience living with her. The question is, given that the spouse is not someone you would want to rely on in old age, how does that affect your current marriage.[/quote]
