[quote=Anonymous] You don’t want to hear this, but you’re also part of the problem. When your parent has a health issue—and it is a matter of when not if—that is the opening to transfer them to a nursing home. When they need to be discharged, that’s your opening to tell the social worker that you can’t care for them and it’s not safe for them to go home. That is the only time when you can actually move them. Yes, everyone at the hospital will try to pressure you to agree to take care of them, but you have to say no. No way in hell would I enable all the crap you’re enabling. And if your sister wants to control the bedrooms at your parents house, she can take care of your parents! Problem solved! You’re an adult, you have agency. Stop acting like you have no choices in life. [/quote]
