[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother hasn’t visited my mother in the nursing home for six months. My dad died in January and we had the reading of the will and it appears that he concluded that he gets the same amount on my mothers death no matter how he behaves so why show up and be kind and help? She keeps asking for him. It’s horrible. Also wondering if there is a pattern where women step up and men don’t. [/quote]

Nah, I have a sister who is too self centered to help.  Of course in our case, our parents don't have  much money.  But what they do have will all be coming to me (despite the fact we do not need it and sister definately does)---simply because most will be a "loan repayment" for the entry fee we paid so parents could live in a very nice CCRC 3K miles from me.  They didn't want to move closer and I wanted them to be well taken care of from a distance, so we ponied up the $$$.  At this point, my "loan repayment" will likely not even be fully met, so sibling will get nothing.
