[quote=Anonymous]I am the oldest in my family, and I have 2 ES special need kids that are high functioning and high chance they could live independently. One younger brother is married and SIL is a stay home mom. They have a preschooler. SIL has an older brother. Another younger brother is single. I assume that we three kids (live in the same state) will split responsibilities financially when it comes to taking care of our parents when they cannot live independently. My parents are old school, and they do not speak any English.

For my DH, he has an older brother. He has a ES kid and SIL is the only child. Well, SIL has no choice but takes the responsibilities to take care of her parents when they are too old. My question is how about our MIL/FIL? DH is not in good relationship with MIL/FIL because they favor BIL the whole time. Do you think BIL will push the full or majority responsibility to ours because they have to take care of SIL parents?

Everyone we are talking about live in the same state, and all elders (3 sets of elders) are in late 60s/70s with Medicare living at their separate own house now. [/quote]
