[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother demonizes anyone who moves away, puts their parents in AL or basically doesn't cater to their elderly parents. She also barely lifted a finger for her own elderly parents. Her sister who was put in AL is in much better shape. It's a luxury place and it was for her and my uncle's safety. My mother also tries all sorts of far worse manipulations-making threats, hurling insults, etc to get people to fall into line. Sometimes you just have to learn to detach with love for your own survival. [b]We had some major stressors (life threatening health issue) and just could no longer cater....[/b] [/quote] This is the part I don't see mentioned often. Many of us are also old/elderly and now we are supposed to care for people who are even older? [/quote]
