[quote=Anonymous]You have no obligation to maintain the home they grew up in after they no longer live there. Lots of good personal and financial reasons not to. And while you have no technical obligation to stay near them, it is my personal preference to try and stay near them while they are building their own families, so that I can help and also because I would like to have relationships with my grandchildren. One think I became acutely aware of when I had my own children is that it is incredibly hard to always have to travel to see grandparents when you have small children, and it means your kids simply see their grandparents less. So if you want to be around for grandkids or you want to have a closer relationship with your adult kids, just keep in mind that moving far away will make this much harder as they will be dealing with more obligations than you (in-laws, children, work).[/quote]
