[quote=Anonymous]My father was extremely cruel and abusive towards my mom. She is outliving him but my siblings and I had discussed what we would do with the reverse situation, where it was only him without her to look after him. Honestly I was afraid of him and the cruel things he would say until the day he died and we never sensed that he actually liked any of us or our children or our spouses. We would probably have put him in a nursing home and forced ourselves to visit a couple of times a year but we couldn’t have befriended him and looked after him because he didn’t like us. I guess there are a lot of lonely old people in nursing homes and at least some of them bear some responsibility for ending up in that situation.[/quote]
