[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she could have made better decisions, she would have. She did not have the skills/ability to do better, for whatever reason.[b] No one wants to be 90+ and depending on their kids. [/b]I say this because it is something that helps me not blame people for poor decision-making that affects me, YMMV.[/quote] I’m not sure this is true. Some threads on this site indicate that parents think their retirement plan is their kids. That is totally irresponsible and selfish. [/quote] My mom said this specifically. I have two sisters and it tore us apart. Luckily we are now on the path forward with our relationship intact. I also don't know where she got the idea that we were supposed to take care of her since neither she nor my dad did any sort of elder care--they had both moved away and there were many siblings who were more involved.[/quote]
