[quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks for the advice and for sharing your experiences. I am sorry for all the stress and frustration you guys are dealing with. I wish there was another way. I know my path is likely to be no better. My parents and I have problems getting along normally, I can't imagine how it will be when they are totally reliant on me for everything. They don't have the money for assisted living and I'm an only child. I still have kids at home to take care of too. I thought college was expensive, but it pales in comparison to assisted living costs. And LTC costs can go on for much longer than 4 years. At least my inlaws have retirement costs covered. Still my husband is their only responsible adult child, so I expect we will need to help them as well. So much for becoming empty nesters. We could have a really overcrowded nest soon. [/quote]
