[quote=Anonymous]That's not why I had kids and I hope I can minimize any burden on them by ensuring we have the financial ability to cover long term care, moving to assisted living when we need to, etc. but, having experienced aging grandparents and parents I know the reality is that some level of care/oversight is generally needed that is really hard to outsource, e.g. making sure finances are being managed OK, being consulted when the parent needs to go to the hospital, helping to arrange next steps after release from the hospital, etc. We do that for our parents so, yes, I would expect my kids to step up.[/quote]
