[quote=Anonymous]I would not - but my parents would never expect me to. They have openly agreed that some of the choices they made to not prepare for retirement and aging were their own mistakes and that they don't want to be a burden on me. Having said that, I am still planning to do what I can because they're my parents. I just won't derail my own life for them. I'd be more inclined to uproot my life to help my ILs. I guess it comes down to I am willing to expend the effort for someone who I know would do it for me but less inclined for someone who has shown that they wouldn't. I regret that I don't have more respect for my parents but that's been decades in the making.[/quote]
