[quote=Anonymous]My Mom would like to come live with me. My Dad has taken all their savings and used to remodel their house for my older brother (long story but basically, my older brother has never worked - no cognitive or other barrier, just has chosen not to - and my dad has always felt he has to provide for brother even after he dies). He did this without consulting my mom or getting her agreement. I would be happy to have my mom but she has some cognitive issues and trying to figure out how to manage her care financially. To cover her care, would need to sell the house (it’s their only asset) and split the pension (~$6500/mo in total). This would cause a war as it would also mean my brother and his family (he had twins last year 😫) and my dad would have to find new housing and live in a high-cost area and would have to leave to find anything that would be in their price range). I’m not that worried about them honestly but am trying to gear up for what will be a big fight.

Anyone w similar experience and/or recommendations? [/quote]
