[quote=Anonymous]I moved my mom from Maryland about an hour away to Virginia, 15 minutes away. Since she moved I've gone from seeing her once every few weeks to seeing her twice a week. Her needs are more than they used to be but not twice-a-week more, she just wants me around all the time and it's really hard to set boundaries. Sometimes I just go there and sit in her apartment with her for two hours for nothing, so she's not bored or lonely (she's in assisted living but won't take the initiative to do any of the activities). It's a miserable life for both of us frankly. If your parents have a good support system they may be better off where they are.[/quote]
